The Studio Standard:
The Model 4400 is perhaps the highest performance and most reliable one-third octave graphic equalizers on the market today. It has been in continuous production by White Instruments for more than 15 years. 

The 4400 features 28 one-third octave L-C active filters on I.S.O. standard frequency centers from 31.5Hz through 16kHz. Each filter has a range of ±10dB. 

L-C Active Design:
A pair of inductors/capacitors (L-C) are hand-tuned to create the resonant circuit of each filter. As passive devices they add no noise and are intrinsically reliable. 

Multiple Outputs:
Three outputs are provided and can be used to distribute the signal or biamp/triamp when an accessory crossover network is inserted in its powered socket. A digital pink noise generator can also be used in the crossover socket to turn the equalizer into a highly reliable masking noise source. 

Other Features & Options:
The 4400 includes adjustable high and low-pass filters; input and outputs 2 & 3 level attenuatiors; EQ in/out switch; sockets for optional input and output isolation transformers; and choice of a matching metal or clear plastic security cover. Let the specifications speak for themselves.
