About Waves API 550

The Waves API 550 is a meticulously modeled plugin that emulates the classic API 550A and 550B equalizers, renowned for their musical transparency and proportional-Q curves. Developed in close collaboration with API, this plugin brings the legendary sound of the late 1960s to your digital audio workstation.

  • Includes both API 550A and 550B EQ modules
  • 550A: 3-band EQ with 5 selectable frequencies per band
  • 550B: 4-band EQ with 7 selectable frequencies per band
  • Proportional-Q narrows filter bandwidth at higher boost/cut settings
  • High and low bands switchable between peak and shelving
  • Switchable analog harmonic distortion and hiss
  • Convenience features like phase switch, output trim, and metering

Ideal for both problem-solving and sweetening tasks, the Waves API 550 delivers the distinctive API sound, enhancing individual tracks, buses, or full mixes with exceptional EQ curves.
