Blended from circuit-archetype lineage, dynamic feel, tone-signal overlap and tone-vector distance — the tone vector itself is derived from editorial description text, not a measured acoustic signal, so this reflects how similarly the catalog copy describes the two, not a lab measurement.

The Free The Tone PA-1QA is a programmable analog 10-band EQ specifically tuned for acoustic guitar, with frequency bands at 31, 62, 125, 250, 500 Hz, 1, 2, 4, 8, and 16 kHz, each offering ±12dB of boost or cut. It uses a hybrid architecture: fully analog signal processing paired with a digital control section that can precisely store and recall EQ presets and process parameters digitally, including real-time control via MIDI, while keeping the actual audio path analog.
The Source Audio Programmable EQ 2 is a 10-band parametric and graphic EQ from Source Audio (Boston, Massachusetts), delivering precise frequency control with MIDI-controllable preset recall and Neuro app programmability for comprehensive EQ management live and in studio. The Programmable EQ 2 allows instant switching between multiple EQ configurations via MIDI for live players who need dynamic EQ control.
