Unlike other emulations you may have seen, a different approach was taken to modeling this module. The Vintage EQ module is based on two legendary tube equalizers: the Pultec EQP-1A and MEQ-5. Let’s take a look at them one by one and see what they have to offer. They allow you to dial in some of that classic, beautifully-imperfect warmth and character when you need it. However, over decades of hearing these imperfections all over popular music, we’ve come to love and even desire them. While a lot of this gear was state-of-the-art when it was manufactured, the thing about analog gear is that it inherently has some imperfections. Vintage modules in Ozone are based on a variety of classic, high-end, analog gear. So why would we want to use these vintage modules anyhow? Well, in short: warmth, grit, vibe, color, and character.
That will always be left to your discretion. Do keep in mind that it won’t be presumptuous enough to add tape, though.
Master Assistant will suggest great starting points for the EQ, compressor and limiter, which you can then tweak to get just the sound you’re after. If the Vintage processors are new to you, this will allow you to get up and running with these modules even faster. The first thing to mention is the inclusion of the brand-new Vintage mode in Master Assistant. Whether these modules are brand new to you, or you’ve had them in your back pocket for a while, but have been unsure about how and when to use them, this article is for you! With the arrival of Ozone 9, the powerful Vintage modules-previously only available in Advanced versions-are now part of Standard.
