Get “Golden Age” Rock Sounds from a Legendary British Console EQ.

Licensed and endorsed by Trident Audio Developments, the Trident® A-Range Classic Console EQ plug-in gives you the iconic EQ used on David Bowie’s The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, Lou Reed’s Transformer, and Queen’s Sheer Heart Attack, among hundreds of others. The original Trident A-Range desk holds near-mythic status, and is arguably the best loved of the classic Trident console designs. Heralded for its unique band interactions and distinct cut-filter combinations, the Trident A-Range EQ has made an indelible impact on the sound of rock.

What They Say

I love the high-end boost of the UAD Trident A-Range EQ. It’s extremely musical all across the board.

The Trident A-Range Classic Console EQ plug-in is one of my favorite EQs, especially for electric guitars. I think it’s the best electric guitar EQ that there is.

    So close to the Original

    I used to record at Trident Studios at St Annes Court near Wardour Street. the plug-in gives me exactly the feeling I had mixing Disco in the Seventies.

    Please UAD release the Native version, now that PCI-X UAD cards are not welcome anymore on Mac Mini's.

    Great Plug-In I want to keep in my Arsenal

    Great vintage sounding EQ.

    This EQ is super musical and not harsh, even when you bump or notch higher frequencies. Adds a certain grit to the sound but a pleasing one. Very happy with this purchase.
