There is a minor quirk with the high-frequency attenuation – you only have three frequencies to pick from – 5, 10 and 20kHz. The bandwidth control is right in the middle, simply marked Sharp and Broad. Adding broad brush EQ enhancements to whole sections of an ensemble would have been far more critical at the time of the EQP-1’s inception. Therefore the EQ challenges that we encounter today in the minutiae of specific sound sources (think individual microphones on kick drums, snare drums, guitar amps) were not a concern. Multi miking drum kits, for example, would not have been possible. Multitrack recording as we know it today was non-existent. As an aside-these bandwidth selections were even more relevant to this time period than they are now.
