"One of the most ear-pleasing (and EYE-pleasing!) EQ’s I’ve ever used.”Tony Vincent. Tony Vincent is an American actor, singer, and songwriter based out of New York City.
"Using the RZ062 EQ is almost too easy. It's sweet and natural with no bitter aftertaste - all you have to do is pour it on."Baby Brown. Baby Brown is an R & B / Soul Music Artist based in Tehran, Iran.
The Sweetest EQ Ever
Two Plugins for Music Production and Mastering.
The exact models of Klangfilm RZ062a and RZ062b vintage EQ modules.
Both RZ062 plug-ins deliver pleasant vintage warmth and amazing presence to your vocals, instruments and entire mixes.
The Original
The RZ062 Equalizers were originally (in the 1960s) designed in Germany for installation in mixing consoles. They were supposed to permit arbitrary modification of frequency response in sound recording and reproduction in order to eliminate undesired studio acoustics, and noise, or to produce certain acoustic impressions or tonal colouring. Soon they were accommodated in top European studios. Now, these 6lbs 300V powered units are extremely rare. Due to their inaccessibility and unmistakable sound, their price climbs over $12.000 per pair. But thanks to our precise circuit modelling technique, these jewels can return to your projects.
Common EQ vs RZ062
Nowadays producers tend to surf through various frequencies and spend hours trying to find the sweet spot in their mix. But the vintage gear worked differently. The RZ062 EQ‘s controls adjust precisely selected fixed parameters. They are perfectly sonically balanced to give immediate and no compromise results. In addition, the circuitry adds wonderful colour to the entire material.
RZ062a
The RZ062a and RZ062b modules differ in the function of the central knob. The a-module middle handle rotates the entire frequency curve around the central point (650 Hz). When the bass frequencies are raised, the trebles are simultaneously lowered.
RZ062b
The b-module is even more complicated. Its presence knob lets you choose one of four frequencies (1.4, 2, 2.8 and 4 kHz) and adjust their gain at the same time. This parameter helps your sonic material to cut through very gently and sensitively.
The Model
To create these amazing plugins we had to emulate more than 200 circuit components. That includes 3 triodes, and input and output transformers. It is not just any circuit but someone did a great job focusing on the details. Each part has its own thoughtful meaning. For RZ062 we used so-called white-box modelling. We described the whole circuit with complex math equations based on the circuit analysis. Eventually, the overall model was fine-tuned by measurements and component-values fitting algorithm to find the closest model to the real device possible.
In Use
"RZ062‘s place is everywhere where extra bass, treble or presence is needed while improving the overall colour, smoothness, and tightness of the sonic material. RZ062 is incredible on vocals, bass and acoustic instruments.
But due to the advanced controls – the independent left/right channels tweaking or mid/side operation - the main point of the RZ062 EQs is the top quality mastering purpose."
