      <body xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">Back in July, I showed you how to design
an Eagle CAD Library for a switch.  After a month or so, I've released a new
product. My PEQ-503 EQ, which incorporated this switch library I designed. 
<br /><br />
Here are some photos:<br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><p><img src="http://fivefishstudios.com/ffimages/PEQ503-Label.jpg" alt="http://fivefishstudios.com/ffimages/PEQ503-Label.jpg" width="545" border="0" height="495" /></p><p align="left">
The FiveFish Studios PEQ-503 is a beautiful, high-quality, single-channel three (3)
band Inductor-based equalizer, designed for<span class="MainText"> the popular API
VPR500 Rack format. </span></p><div align="left"></div><p align="left">
Each frequency band has two  (2) selectable frequencies, and a bypass switch.
It also has an overall EQ In/Bypass switch to let you easily make sound comparisons.
</p><div align="left"></div><p align="left">
The equalizer's smooth broad curves makes tonal adjustments easy and fast. You can
go from small, subtle changes to extreme carving or boosting up to +/- 18dB per band. 
The SUB and AIR frequency bands can give your tracks the chest-thumping punch you
want, and that extra sparkle at the top end without sounding harsh. The mid frequencies
band takes care of adding that extra bite to your sound to make it pop.
</p><div align="left"></div><img src="http://fivefishstudios.com/images/stories/PEQ503EQ2.png" alt="Image" title="Image" width="499" border="0" height="390" hspace="6" /><div align="left"></div><p align="left">
The PEQ-503 Equalizer uses the following:
</p><div align="left"><ul><li>
A balanced line level receiver using InGenius® high-common mode rejection technology. 
</li><li>
An ultra-low distortion, low noise, operational amplifier optimized for high performance
audio is used in the EQ section, along with imported Carnhill inductors from the UK,
to perform the musical tone shaping and sculpting of your sound. 
</li><li>
Using OutSmarts technology for the Balanced output driver, thus capable of driving
difficult loads, with short-circuit protection. 
</li></ul></div><p align="left">
The PEQ-503 is all about choices. You can outfit the EQ with optional Discrete 2520/990
type op amp*, and an Output Transformer*. You can also request special panels colors*,
just email us for availability.  There are also on-board jumpers on the EQ that
allows you to experiment and change the Low Frequency and Mid Frequency bands from
the factory default setting, to better suit your taste or musical style. Output Bypass
jumpers also allow you to change between an active balanced direct output, or transformer
output coupling.
</p><div align="left"></div><p align="left">
Join the other professionals that have discovered the PEQ-503 Equalizer's quality
performance. The PEQ-503 is equally at home for use in the mix bus, or individual
tracks and channels. You will love it!

          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">Meet the newest member of the FiveFish
Studios line of 500-Series preamps... the MX5 mk500 Mic Preamp.</font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">Just like it's brother, the X-72mk500,
the MX5 Mic Preamp features the same UK-made Carnhill Input Transformer to deliver
that big, punchy, lots of low end mojo sound. </font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">A custom made output transformer takes
care of balancing the beefy outputs, and also adding it's own sonic signature. </font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">Mil-spec Grayhill 12-stepped gain switch,
and a separate Output Trim knob gives you fine control over this preamp. Lighted push-button
switches gives a visual indicator for the status of your 48V phantom power, -20db
Pad and Polarity Reverse switches.  </font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">Custom-made, solid machined aluminum knobs
gives the MX5 preamp an expensive look. But don't let it's features and expensive
looks fool you, the MX5 is priced very attractively to fit the budget of every home,
project or recording studio while still delivering on performance and features!  </font>
        </p>
        <p>
          <font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">You also have the option to use Discrete
Op Amps (DOA) like 2520/990 type opamp with the MX5 preamp. Just swap out the stock
chip, with a Discrete OpAmp for a slightly different flavor. </font>

 <div align="left"><span class="postbody"><div style="text-align: center;"><div align="left"><font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">The MX5 sound is BIG,
PUNCHY, and HUGE.  It adds a deep, nice, WARM coloration to the sound. Really
deep-sounding huge.  And low frequencies come out punchy and TIGHT... thanks
to the UK-made Carnhill Input Transformers. </font></div><div align="left"> 
</div><div align="left"><font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">The custom output transformer
also gives the preamp a slight mid-forward, smooth sound character. </font><span class="postbody"><font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">A
very fast video buffer driver chips (spec'd at 2000V/usec) drive this custom Output
Transformer. </font></span><font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"></font></div><div align="left"> 
</div><div align="left"><font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2">You can say the MX5 is
a hybrid of our X-12 and X-72 preamp.  The MX5 exhibits qualities that can be
found on both preamps - I'm sure you will love this new preamp! </font><br /></div></div><div align="left"> <br /></div><div align="left"><h5 style="color: rgb(204, 0, 0);">

&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;Meet the newest member of the FiveFish
Studios line of 500-Series preamps... the MX5 mk500 Mic Preamp.&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;Just like it's brother, the X-72mk500,
the MX5 Mic Preamp features the same UK-made Carnhill Input Transformer to deliver
that big, punchy, lots of low end mojo sound.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;A custom made output transformer takes
care of balancing the beefy outputs, and also adding it's own sonic signature. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;Mil-spec Grayhill 12-stepped gain switch,
and a separate Output Trim knob gives you fine control over this preamp. Lighted push-button
switches gives a visual indicator for the status of your 48V phantom power, -20db
Pad and Polarity Reverse switches.&amp;nbsp; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;Custom-made, solid machined aluminum knobs
gives the MX5 preamp an expensive look. But don't let it's features and expensive
looks fool you, the MX5 is priced very attractively to fit the budget of every home,
project or recording studio while still delivering on performance and features!&amp;nbsp; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;You also have the option to use Discrete
Op Amps (DOA) like 2520/990 type opamp with the MX5 preamp. Just swap out the stock
chip, with a Discrete OpAmp for a slightly different flavor. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div class="mosimage" align="center"&gt;&lt;img src="http://fivefishstudios.com/images/stories/MX5lineup.jpg" alt="Image" title="Image" width="500" border="0" height="377" hspace="6"&gt;
&lt;div class="mosimage_caption"&gt;Photo showing the MX5 preamp along with our SC-1mk500,
X-12mk500 and X-72mk500 Mic Preamps.
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;
&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;The MX5 sound is BIG,
PUNCHY, and HUGE.&amp;nbsp; It adds a deep, nice, WARM coloration to the sound. Really
deep-sounding huge.&amp;nbsp; And low frequencies come out punchy and TIGHT... thanks
to the UK-made Carnhill Input Transformers. &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;The custom output transformer
also gives the preamp a slight mid-forward, smooth sound character. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;span class="postbody"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;A
very fast video buffer driver chips (spec'd at 2000V/usec) drive this custom Output
Transformer. &lt;/font&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt; &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&lt;font style="font-family: Arial;" size="2"&gt;You can say the MX5 is
a hybrid of our X-12 and X-72 preamp.&amp;nbsp; The MX5 exhibits qualities that can be
found on both preamps - I'm sure you will love this new preamp! &lt;/font&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div align="left"&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;

&lt;/span&gt;

      <description>Last October, I held a sale of my X-12mk500 preamps. &lt;br&gt;
&amp;nbsp;&lt;a href="http://fivefishstudios.com/index.php/X-12mk500-Mic-Preamp-Kit.html"&gt;http://fivefishstudios.com/index.php/X-12mk500-Mic-Preamp-Kit.html&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
These are some of the units that went out to customers... &amp;lt;drool&amp;gt;&lt;br&gt;
&lt;br&gt;
Thanks to all my customers that support FiveFish Studios DIY Mic Preamp kits.

        <span class="postbody">What looks better?
I can't decide. Help me. 
<br /><br />
The white paint fill "pops out"... and is very clear and bright. But seems drab and
lacks personality. 
<br /><br />
The yellow has "personality" and not boring like white. But I'm not sure if I like

These are Testors model paint by the way.
