Being programme dependant it will adapt the attack and release characteristics to the signal and alter the envelope to suit to tame the audio. In addition, it has an influence on the Crush feature - the more compression you use the more of the Crush effect you will get.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe EQ and compressor order can be swapped in the signal path to suit your preference.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith clear metering for both the compressor gain reduction and also the stereo output its easy to set the MQ-2 to the optimum levels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"card-text align-self-center my-4\"\u003eBut what truly sets the MQ-2 apart is its inclusion of the celebrated \"CRUSH\" circuit, featured on the Drawmer 1971.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eEngage the CRUSH circuit, and the MQ-2 transforms into more than just an EQ and compressor — it evolves into a powerful saturation tool. Harmonic richness, subtle distortion, and that elusive \"analogue warmth\" is added to the signal, bringing new life and colour to anything that passes through this. It fattens up the bass, adds presence to the mids, and brings a delightful shimmer to the top end.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe more boost you give to EQ frequencies and the more Compression you use the more Crush you’ll get!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"card-text align-self-center my-4\"\u003eProudly designed and manufactured in our UK factory, the MQ-2 embodies the Drawmer commitment to quality, precision, and sonic excellence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhether you're chasing the soulful tones of the past or shaping new tones of your own, the MQ-2 is the tool that will bring your music to life with unmistakable warmth, depth, and detail.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"webtext-block--colcount\"\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStereo 500 Series 7-band parametric EQ\/compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDouble-wide module with all-analog circuitry\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProportional-Q equalizer design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, punchy, vintage-flavored sound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInspired by the “Motown EQ” of the 1960s\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHighly musical frequency bands of the original\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e10dB boost or cut per band\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCrush mode adds harmonic saturation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProgram-dependent 1-knob compressor\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrder button swaps EQ and compressor in the signal path\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGain control and hard-wired bypass\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGR and Stereo Level LED meters\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned and manufactured in the UK\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Drawmer","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":41447218544698,"sku":"DRA-MQ-2","price":799.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1764\/4443\/files\/th_drawmer-mq2.jpg?v=1780730066","url":"https:\/\/gsus4.com.au\/products\/drawmer-mq-2-500-series-stereo-7-band-equaliser","provider":"Gsus4","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
