We worked closely with acclaimed engineer Luca Pretolesi in order to revamp the original design of this renowned processor, which is a favorite of electronic music producers all over the world. Our updated version includes new features, such as an additional HMF band with selectable frequencies, a “focus” control (for precision mastering duties), a left/right and mid/side selector, as well as a complete “cut filter” section.

In Pretolesi’s words: “The Color EQ fills the gaps between frequencies.”

Luca Pretolesi has logged over 20,000 hours in the studio honing his skills. Mixing and mastering are an art form at the world-class Studio DMI in Las Vegas, and each session is carefully executed in order to create the best sound possible while preserving the artist’s original vision.

Pretolesi pushes the boundaries of expectations by taking his mixes to the next level; in adding the finishing touches to a song, he does so in a way that is uniquely his, thanks to his superb ear and decades of experience.

As an engineer, he has worked with Diplo, Major Lazer, Steve Aoki, Dimitri Vegas & Like Mike, DVBBS, Snoop Lion, Gareth Emery, Dada Life, Lil Jon, MakJ, E.A.S.Y., Morgan Page, Dillon Francis, KSHMR, TJR, and many other chart-topping artists.

Diamond Color EQ 3 is also available as a channel-strip plugin for Modula.
