View Full Version : The ultimate equalizer?

I do a lot of evaluations, mostly borrowing amps, speakers, cables, etc. from friends. One of the things I want to do is get a better idea of what I'm hearing. So I thought I would look into adding an equalizer. I was wondering if there was something out there that has the following features:
a wide range of frequencies (below 20Hz. and above 20KHz.)
presets / memory settings
a spectrum anayzer
video output (to display spectrum on a monitor)
dual input/output
remote
I know I'm probably asking for too much and maybe I'm bleeding into the pro-audio stuff, but an equalizer with most of these features would still be useful. Maybe multiple components? Used is OK, too.

Wow, that is a lot of functionality. I was thinking more along the lines of the old pioneer equalizers that came with remotes, back in the early 90's. I do like what this Behringer can do, though. If only it had a video output, it would fit the bill. The spectrum analizers on 1u units tend to be rather difficult to read.
Maybe if there was a way to use a standard equalizer with two outputs where the second output could be used with a seperate spectrum analyzer that has a larger screen? I think what I'm looking for is two components?
