Interesting Passive EQ circa 1961

Above, a ‘distortionless’ equalizer circuit circa 1961 as designed by one Carlos Moura.  Separate bass and treble boost functions (2 frequencies each) and bass and treble loss cut.   I do not know the range, frequencies, or insertion loss.  Can anyone tell me if/when this was manufactured, and by whom?

  • I'd plug it into a Spice program and see what it does. You're running with the big dogs when you get into filter design, which is what this is.

  • Gravodisc is a record studio in São Paulo - Brazil and still exists.

    This unit seams to be maded for use in this studio and not comercialized I think.
