For sale is a combo bundle discount deal. This listing includes both a Zahl EQ1 module with a 500 Dual Rack. Save some buying these together.

The legendary ZÄHL EQ from the state-of-the-art mixing console AM1 in the API 500 format, and the 500 series desktop case with external PSU. This is the highest quality dual channel 500 series rack on the market, incredible build quality with plenty of power to supply high end modules.

Zahl EQ1

Twin Contest
HI with BELL/SHELF and MID with fully parametric BELL – same quality standard, but different circuit technologies and sound character. For optimum versatility MID frequency range switchable to HI range, HI frequency applicable at HI MID band. Similar: LO and LO MID.

Single band switching
- Individual ON/OFF switching
- Direct comparison each band ON/OFF while leaving GAIN pot in position
- Minimizing noise/preserving signal integrity by switching OFF unused bands

For sensitive use
- Global EQ GAIN setting 5dB or 15dB
- GAIN resolution enhancement
- Easier restoration of GAIN setting
- Direct comparison of different GAIN setting
