Return of the Classic “Secret Weapon” EQ
The audio world is abuzz with the news of Heritage Audio’s acquisition of LANG Electronics Inc. This program EQ unit offers everything recording professionals loved about the original LANG PEQ-2 and more. Its simple layout, independent controls that boost and cut at different frequencies, and magical 20kHz High Peak Boost option are all here, as well as some new Heritage Audio touches like custom I/O transformers for a consistently clean signal. By playing with its 26 frequency options for simultaneous boosts and droops (cuts), you can sculpt your tones in exciting combinations that aren’t possible with other EQs. The Heritage Audio LANG PEQ-2 makes the low end, in particular, remarkably manageable, and a pair of PEQ-2s on your 2-bus can open up the top end of your mix like nothing else. Plus, its controls are stepped for easy recall and matching. Heritage Audio has made the sound of this legendary “secret weapon” EQ unit more accessible than ever.
The secret weapon
During the 1950s and 1960s, LANG earned renown for producing quality pro audio equipment and parts at affordable prices (much like Heritage Audio is today). The company’s most popular offering was arguably the PEQ-2 Program Equalizer, which still has many devotees even now. Unfortunately, LANG Electronics produced very few PEQ-2s, and the ones that still function are doggedly safeguarded by their owners. These days, you’re unlikely to find an original PEQ-2; even if you do, expect the seller to ask for an obscene amount of money. But, with the Heritage Audio LANG PEQ-2 reissue, that no longer matters.
Heritage additions
Heritage Audio was not content with simply bringing this gem of an EQ and standing pat. The company upped the ante by equipping their reissued LANG PEQ-2 with custom Input and Output transformers, ensuring you’ll always have a clean signal. The Heritage Audio LANG PEQ-2 features a Low Shelf boost and cut control, a High Shelf cut, and a High Peak Boost with a variable Q (bandwidth) that ranges from Sharp to Broad settings. Additionally, the Boost range varies depending on your selected Q setting, which always gives the Heritage Audio LANG PEQ-2 an incredibly smooth and natural response. Last but certainly not least, the attractive price tag of the Heritage Audio LANG PEQ-2 means that this legendary EQ unit is now within everyone’s grasp.
Heritage Audio: legendary performance and epic value
Founded in 2011 by engineer/producer Peter Rodriguez, Heritage Audio immediately set about designing and manufacturing equipment inspired by legendary vintage British console modules. The company leverages the same handwired, transformer-coupled Class A circuitry, with functionality aimed at today’s studio workflows. Designed to stringent tolerances and meticulously crafted in the company’s factory in Spain, Heritage Audio gear delivers clean, problem-free audio with generous headroom and the vintage-flavored sonics we all crave.
