BLONDER-TONGUE AUDIO BATON – Equalizer
Enter the Antelope time machine for a trip back to 1959! We present a faithful emulation of the Blonder-Tongue Laboratories Audio Baton – an all-tube graphic equalizer so rare and special, it has an actual album named after it. Time-appropriate looks aside, the Audio Baton boasted seven separate amplifiers tuned to distinct frequencies, followed by high- and low-pass filters running in parallel, with their outputs routed to separate level controls.
KEY FEATURES
- • Exact emulation of the vintage all-tube original
- • Works in real-time with zero latency, like using the original hardware
- • 9 frequency bands with 28dB control range per band

Filtek MK3 – Equalizer
Originally designed in the 70’s, the FILTEK MK3 is a highly successful creation. That’s no wonder as the unit was built to the rigorous standards demanded by the IRT (Institut für Rundfunk Technik). Initially costly to build and within reach of only the most reputable radio stations, these broadcast-ready modules eventually ended up inside the racks of recording studios around the globe.
KEY FEATURES
- • Versatile 3-band equalizer with modeled transformer-based input and output sections
- • Unique signal path allowing for parallel equalization by mixing boosted/attenuated signal with unprocessed audio
- • Monitor and record without latency when processed by Antelope’s Synergy Core DSP acceleration engine
- • Each band offers a choice of 12 frequencies with +/-16dB of stepped gain and a 3-way Q-switch
- • Q-switches in mid-position bypass frequency bands
- • Wide-ranging low- and high-pass filters
- • Bypass switch for the entire module
- • Output peak meter
HOW TO USE
Simply insert the FILTEK MK3 into your FX chain. Click and turn the per-band knobs and switches to make the desired adjustments. Feel free to push the input signal (within reasonable limits) to obtain transformer saturation.
