The #1 EQ pedal returns - better than ever We've brought back the most sought after Parametric EQ pedal with groundbreaking upgrades.We kept everything people loved about the original ParaEq and added more fidelity and control.Why Choose Parametric EQ over Graphic EQ?Graphic equalizers provide a convenient visual sense of the EQ curve. However, there is a tradeoff in transparency and precision.The ParaEq is much more precise in the changes it can make, whereas the graphic EQ affects nearly the entire frequency spectrum.
