So I was getting some analog outboard for tracking and mixing in my home studio. So far I have UA 1176ln for lead vocals, Distressor for bass, and two dbx 160x for clean electric guitars/piano.

Of course any of these can be used on anything. But the applications described above are my most frequent uses.

So I was thinking of getting eqs for 4 channels to have analog processing for the meat and potatoes tracks.

As of now I am leaning towards Drawmer 1971 Dual 4-band Parametric Equalizer.

I am looking for a parametric eq with hi and low pass filters. Does anyone have any other recommendations?

Yes, everything and anything.

Try everything and just like you decided on your current compressors, you will come to the same conclusions with the EQ's.

API eq’s are musical and easy and vibey. Great place to start your OTB eq journey.

EDIT!:
My bad yall i said 1971 and what I meant to type out was 1974…

I really really like my Drawmer 1974. I use it on my master bus after the SSL Bus +…

It def has a sound… but from what I hear it doesn’t eff around with phasey nonsense which is why I love it on my master bus. Easy recall. Super wide Q and broad strokes sounds really really great.

I know it’s a good EQ when I can actually PUSH the low or high mid range when needed and it sounds right- not honky/boxy/strident - on the master bus. Plus I love the air at 16k… and the shelves are really great.

I haven’t really tried it on anything else… only because once I put it on my bus I could not take it off.

I’d imagine it’d be a great overall utility bus EQ that makes recall super easy.

Nothing like my 1961.

i would go with a pair of neve eqs and a pair of ssl eqs. if you can spend a few hundred dollars more, you can also buy an ssl ultraviolet stereo eq for $550. that collection would cover a lot of ground.

whatever you buy, do so with a 100% return policy so you can properly audition them.

Drawmer 1974 is a great eq but stereo, not dual mono. Kush Electra is nice and has a hpf. Capi BT50's has both HPF and LPF and sound marvelous.
