The equalizer offers multiple switchable frequency bands, allowing precise control over low, low mid, high mid, and high frequencies with gain adjustments up to ±16dB.

In addition to its sonic capabilities, UREQ provides practical usability enhancements like a high pass filter at 80Hz and a low pass filter at 12kHz to refine your signal further. The interface supports touchscreen controls and offers a resizable window that ranges from 50% to 200% for comfortable workflow customization. Overall, UREQ balances simplicity, sound quality, and user-friendly features for an efficient equalizing experience.
