The cut and boost are marked with close bass frequencies - so I am curious what that can do to the bass with a cut and boost. Has anyone tried it?

I assume a move like this is more RAD Distribution than Heritage themselves. Or maybe the two are the same now. It's all about branding spin.

I like the top end and really liked how it can clean up and focus the bottom - the pultec trick but seemed different to me

But here it’s also different freq points, however that actually translates. |

Hey Doug - the Psidex PEQ-1 does this. I love the 2 I have.

I’ve been watching for a pair of these forever, and/or hoping for a reissue. You bet I asked Audioscape  the 899 price is certainly attractive, but they also tout “custom I/O transformers for a consistently clean signal”….which to me sounds like, “we were unable to satisfactorily clone the original transformers”. |

This is a really good video and I now want a pair. I think it was pretty amusing that on almost every example he was cutting 200Hz. It works and I'm not complaining, just thought it was interesting. I liked all the examples save for the piano. I'm not sure if it was how they chose to EQ it, or if it just isn't the best choice for piano. I thought he was pretty aggressive on the his on the mix examples, which I don't think I'd ever do, but it was good to hear how the unit sounds when pushed that way. |

Just got a pair in last week. I’ve only had a chance to master 1 EP with so far and used one in mixing in a vocal. super smooth top end. Big yet punchy bottom end. Similar curve of course to the Pultecs but different tone.

I'm into the look and functionality - kinda glad they didn't add extra features besides a front panel gain trim.
"Upping the ante with custom transformers ensuring low noise" or whatever the marketing verbiage was triggers my skepticism though... Sounds more like they couldn't get the same weighty tone or it wasn't gonna work at the price point. I'd love to be wrong though.
Not much info for the VCCS amp stage besides the continuing use of silicon transistors. Wonder if it's a simialr design, or original design with NOS transitors. It's still a good price if it sounds good! The recent demos sound nice.
If it can do a similar 20kHz silvery sparkle lift well I'd get one for sure.
The manual is great with many operating details and AP plots at each frequency - nice one Lang!

The old ones have the same gain trim Ah thanks Chris, I didn't know that. Has anyone been using these more lately? How are they working out? |

I’m interested too, when Paul Stacey had a studio upstairs he swore by his OG’s.

Has anyone compared these to the popular Pultec descendents/clones?

But this is the vintage Lang, not the reissue. He has a another one where he tries to reproduce the test with the new Herritage, but his levels aren't matched, the video's audio is different, etc. |

Anyone else been using these? How are they working out? |

Still enjoying my pair. For the price I’m not sure they can be beat for the big broad curve thing. I AB’ed these with Purple Lilpeqr’s, which if I’m not mistaken their take on the Lang EQ’s, and while the Purple’s are really great as well and maybe even had a sweeter tone and little more “gluey” when hit hard especially on the mixbuss, the curve of the Heritage Lang’s won for me excuse of how smooth everything is when boosting. Big punchy bottom, nice airy top. So far they’ve been on every mix and master, and I have also really enjoyed them on vocals and bass during tracking.

For those that posted already, are you all still enjoying them post-honeymoon?
I'm on the fence about one for lead vocal sparkle and weight boost.
