JOEMEEK VC5 Meequalizer
(TDM, RTAS, and AudioSuite)
The JOEMEEK VC5 Meequalizer offers simple
controls and incredibly warm, musical results.
How the Meequalizer Works
Picture this: drums in the spare bedroom. Micro-
phones, cables, and recording gear strewn about
the living room. A familiar scene—especially to
legendary producer Joe Meek in 1962 as he pre-
pared to record yet another chart topping hit.
Among countless other achievements, Joe Meek
built custom gear to get the sounds in his head
onto tape. One device was a treble and bass cir-
cuit with a sweepable mid control, built into a
tiny tobacco tin! The Meequalizer VC5 recreates
the exact circuitry used by Joe Meek.
How the Meequalizer is Used
Operation of the Meequalizer is dead simple,
and that’s the whole point.
The Bass control adjusts low frequencies ±11.
The Mid and Mid Freq controls allow you to ad-
just mid frequencies, from 500Hz to 3.5KHz,
±11.
The Treble control adjusts high frequencies ±11.
Finally, the Gain control allows you to adjust
the output level ±11.
