API 560

EQ
Waves

The API 560 is a 10-band graphic equalizer plugin modeled on the 1967 API classic, featuring precision filtering and high headroom ideal for signal enhancement and room tuning. Its distinctive Proportional Q design intuitively widens filter bandwidth at lower boost/cut levels and narrows it at higher settings, delivering smooth and musical results even at extreme EQ adjustments.
