It all came into place when Michael Zähl, former engineer and designer of the main custom made mixing console at the legendary Conny's Studio and Mark Ernestus, long time producer known from projects like Basic Channel and Rhythm & Sound had a special encounter. This led to the collaborative development of AM1 - the state-of-the-art pure analog mixing console.
Given the excellent response to the AM1 mixing console with famous users such as Ricardo Villalobos or Tobi Neumann, it was time for the consistent next step - the EQ1 Stereo Equalizer. The legendary Zähl EQ is now also available in the API 500 format.
