P422 Fairuz
Overview
Though it has gone by many names, turquoise get its current name from French pierre tourques, or “Turkish Stone.” This phrase refers to the Turkish traders who introduced the gem to Europe via the Silk Road in the 13th century.
Ancient Persians believed that turquoise could prevent them from harm and covered their daggers and bridles with it. They referred to turquoise as pirouzeh, which translates to “victory.” The Native Americans Apaches wore turquoise as talismans and believed that attaching it to weapons and bows made for better aim. Aztec chiefs wore turquoise jewelry as a mark of authority.
P422 Fairuz will bring out the natural resonance and richness of the instrument you are EQ-ing. Even at extreme boosts or cuts, the integrity of the sound is maintained.
P422 Fairuz is a versatile channel proportional EQ. Each point of the stepped frequencies is tuned by ear for that sweet spot. Still, the option to switch the band to continuous operation is provided for power users. Bands can be either peak or a punch (push/pull) curve. Fairuz does not emulate any hardware design. It is an original design free from the limitations and sonics of existing hardware equalizers.

Lunar Lander is INCREDIBLE! Realistic BBD Delay behavior.
Scott is responsible for some of the most head strong electrocore bass-bangers such as Dark Star, Go Bang, Beyond, This is the Sound of Underground and Bad Robot.

Extremely lush melodic plate reverb emulation. I use it when I want to add character to a sound.

Another great tool from Ziad that allows me to get inside the mix and sculpt to achieve the sounds I hear in my head. Love it.
Love using this EQ for Vocals and everything else to bring out the best possible sound of what I’m working with. Using this with other PM plugins I couldn’t ask for more. Just try it out yourself and see. Great work.
In my experience, PM plugins live up to the hype. The P422 deserves all the praise I’ve read on gearspace. It’s good, really good. I’ve used it everyday since becoming a day one early leaper and it’s been a joy to work with.
This is the only EQ I can remember that makes everything sound more “real” and more solid. Yes, other EQs make things sound good but on guitar or bass, P422 reminds me of having my ears down by the speaker; naked but better. A 9 dB of gain isn’t harsh or even too much. Everything seems closer. If the sound you want is rude and raucous, this makes it stunningly more so. Amazing!
This EQ is really incredible. My favourite EQ from Pulsar Modular or any manufacturer for additive. I am pairing this with MDW-eq6, but if I had to only choose 1 EQ as my only one, it would be this EQ.
Congrats Ziad, I thought I was set with the P450, but I feel more connected to the P422.
