The EMI TG12345 Curve Bender by Chandler Limited was conceived and designed by Wade Goeke and Pete Cobbin of Abbey Road Studios. It is based on the vintage EMI TG12345 desk which was used to record the Beatles and Pink Floyd. The recreation of this timeless gear has been rethought and updated with more features in order to meet the demands of modern day mixing techniques. Chandler Limited's Curve Bender expands the original functionality of the EMI Curve Bender by adding 51 EQ points and a multiplier switch which increases the boost/cut by 15dB for more aggressive EQ'ing while also sharpening the EQ curve for tonal variety.
At the heart of the Curve Bender is the TG12345 MK1 amplifier which utilizes germanium transistors and results in the vintage sound which is highly coveted by both musicians and engineers alike. To further show their dedication to the that classic sound in the updated Curve Bender, Chandler Limited has used white markings on the faceplate to indicate the vintage settings used with the original EMI gear and yellow markings have been made to indicate more modern settings. Overall, the Curve Bender offers the vintage sound and look of the classic EMI TG12345 board, with the updated features needed to operate in a modern day recording environment.
