The Hendyamps Michelangelo Stereo Solid State Equalizer is designed for mixing and mastering applications. It's focus is to be a musical, broad stroke EQ used to enhance and sweeten your audio. Or simply put, it’s made to make your music sound great, with very little effort. And that it does!
The Hendyamps Michelangelo is a discrete, Class A, stereo EQ with Jensen input and output transformers - that is completely focused on sonic beauty! This Solid State version of the Michelangelo provides a more precise and punchy response than the Michelangelo Tube Equalizer; which provides a more lush and harmonically complex sound. This EQ is certainly not aimed at precisely targeting certain frequencies, for it is intended to be a broad strokes EQ that also acts as a harmonics generator. This one of a kind EQ is at home during any phase of the music production process (tracking, mixing, or mastering), for the overall sonic signature it leaves, coupled with its complete ease of use, is rivaled by none!
As with all Hendyamps gear, the Michelangelo is built to order and offers some custom options. This unit is the Standard Edition version but you have a couple other optons. If you would like to order in one of the configurations, please reach out so we can get you a quote and lead-time. Other options are as follows:
- 1/3 Gain Range:
- The Standard Michelangelo can also be ordered with the ranges of the EQ controls (Low, Mid, High, and Air) limited to approximately 1/3 of the normal gain range. This modification can often be more useful in a mastering context whereas the full range is often better in a tracking or mixing context.
- Stepped Version:
- The Michelangelo can also be ordered in a stepped version if desired, when precise recall is necessary. Each control is built using high quality Elma switches, and the controls are altered in the following ways:
- Aggression actually remains unchanged, other than becoming stepped.
- Low, Mid, High controls have been altered to offer +/- 6bd range (12db swing), with roughly .5db steps.
- Air offers a 6db boost with roughly .5db steps.
- Trim remains unchanged (from zero to max volume) in 2db steps. Max Trim = Unity
- The Michelangelo can also be ordered in a stepped version if desired, when precise recall is necessary. Each control is built using high quality Elma switches, and the controls are altered in the following ways:

Sep 20th 2024Absolutely stellar bus color EQ. Everyone knows the EQ, but the SATURATION! The star of the show on this IMO. Gives you some beautiful burnishing without killing your depth and transients, truly magical.
