The most musical vacuum tube equalizer.

In pursuit of creating the most musical form of equalization, D.W. Fearn originally designed the VT-5 to deliver tone shaping that feels natural, expressive, and deeply satisfying to use. With a tube-driven character that enhances rather than alters, it brings out the best in any source with remarkable ease. It’s an EQ that feels intuitive and rewarding, lets mixes breathe and helps sounds sit with confidence. More than a tool, it embodies a philosophy: musicality is the true measure of great engineering. In partnership with D.W. Fearn, we’ve recreated the complete sonic fingerprint of this highly regarded equalizer. Through our proprietary component-level modeling techniques, every transformer, tube stage, curve, and musical nuance of the VT-5 is faithfully captured with the flexibility and workflow enhancements of a modern plugin.
