Tone shaping made easy
At Triton Audio, we believe every microphone has its own character. That’s why we engineered Tilt EQ: a simple and musical way to refine your microphone’s tonal signature without the complexity of traditional equalizers. Designed for both experienced engineers and creators who want fast, professional results, Tilt EQ lets you subtly enhance clarity, add warmth, or rebalance the natural character of your microphone with a single intuitive control. Perfect for home studios, podcasts, livestreams, and professional recording environments. Tone shaping made easy.
◆ Ideal for ribbon, dynamic and tube microphones
◆ Shape and refine your microphone’s tonal character
◆ Low-noise gain boost in one compact device
◆ Uses phantom power to operate, protects the microphone
How to use
Instead of relying on multiple bands and endless tweaking, Tilt EQ gives you one intuitive control that naturally rebalances the frequency spectrum of your microphone in a smooth and transparent way. Our design features a single knob that adjusts the frequency spectrum from Low to High. Tilt EQ adds 22dB of gain.
With a gentle turn, you can subtly enhance vocal clarity and articulation, add warmth and body to thinner-sounding microphones, or make a snare drum snap. Whether you want to bring more presence to spoken word recordings, create a richer vocal tone, or better match a microphone to a particular voice or instrument, Tilt EQ makes tonal shaping fast, effortless, and musical.
At Triton Audio, we believe great sound should inspire creativity, not slow it down. Tilt EQ gives engineers, musicians, podcasters, and creators a powerful tonal shaping tool that stays intuitive, transparent, and enjoyable to use.
Operation
Your Tilt EQ will latch straight onto any XLR equipped microphone, or anywhere else in the signal path between microphone and preamp/mixer. The electronics are housed in a robust metal chassis with a balanced XLR input and output. Tilt EQ is powered by 48V phantom power.
Protects the microphone
Some older ribbon microphones do not tolerate phantom power. Tilt EQ uses phantom power to power its circuitry, but doesn’t pass phantom power to the microphone, so rest assured your ribbon mics are safe.
