Chandler Limited, Little Devil EQ, front

Little Devil EQ

The Chandler Limited Little Devil EQ is a discrete, transformer balanced 500 Series module that combines Wade Goeke's designs with recording studio favorites of the past.

The Little Devil EQ is a small package with a huge sound; it is a Chandler-ized British console sound in a 500 package!

This Devil has all discrete circuits with custom transformers, an inductor-based EQ that modern gyrator circuits can't touch, and a classic Baxendall tone control that is simply huge sounding! These units are all handmade using through-hole components and handwiring. We don't use surface mount components which, in our opinion, lowers the quality. Chandler's units are extremely high-quality made the way your favorite vintage units were made to preserve that special sound.

Please note that all Devils feature increased compatibility! No power issues here!

Little Devil EQs and Little Devil Compressors have been upgraded to eliminate the power conflict experienced with some 3rd party racks and lunchboxes.  The upgrade has been tested in the racks listed below.  Any Little Devil EQ or Little Devil Compressor with compatibility issues can be returned to Chandler Limited for a free upgrade (parts and labor), however, Chandler Limited will not cover shipping costs.

All Chandler 500 series units have now been tested and proven to have no power issues in the following racks:  API 500V 10-slot with L200 PSU; API 500-6B Lunchbox; API 500-6B HC “new version” Lunchbox; BAE 11-slot with power one supply; BAE 6-slot portable with power one supply; BAE 6-slot with Avedis designed supply; A-Designs 2-slot; Purple Sweet 10; and Empirical Labs 2-slot.

TESTIMONIALS

Blues Saraceno

"The Little Devil EQ is ALL business!!! It has been getting a workout.... I find myself sticking it on shit that doesn't even need any EQ just to see how much better it can get!"

James Lugo

"Been using them both (compressor and EQ) and I really love the tone. Man you can't beat hand made hardware. The units look great and are built like tanks . . . Instantly you could hear the tone of the hardware, it was a beautiful thing."
