Independent shopping perspective
The Korena take
Built for detailed EQ work, the blue ParaEq MKII Deluxe combines three fully variable parametric bands with high-pass, low-pass, and low- and high-shelf filters. Each parametric band reaches 15dB of cut or boost, letting you move from broad shaping to narrow corrections. Its footswitchable boost supplies up to 30dB of gain for solos or for driving a preamp. The boost can operate with the EQ engaged or independently, and bypass can be set to true or buffered.
Strong match
Who this is for
- Making broad tonal adjustments or tightly focused EQ corrections from the same pedal.
- Using a footswitchable gain lift for solos or to drive a preamp into overdrive.
- Long cable runs where buffered bypass is selected to guard against signal loss.
