Trident® A-Range Classic Console EQ
-
The legendary British console EQ that crafted the “Golden Age” of rock records.
Licensed and endorsed by Trident Audio Developments, the Trident® A-Range Classic Console EQ plug-in for UAD-2 and Apollo interfaces expertly emulates the iconic EQ used on David Bowie’s The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust, Lou Reed’s Transformer, and Queen’s Sheer Heart Attack, among hundreds of others.
The original Trident A-Range desk holds near-mythic status, and is arguably the best loved of the classic Trident console designs. Heralded for its unique band interactions and distinct cut-filter combinations, the Trident A-Range EQ has made an indelible impact on the sound of rock.Track and mix with the legendary 4-band active EQ modeled from one of only 13 original Trident A-Range desks
Easily inject life and color to kick drums, bass, and vocals without adding harshness
Artfully sculpt instruments with unique band interactions and musical cut-filter combinations
Add snarling midrange and airy high end to electric guitars
“The Trident® A-Range Classic Console EQ plug-in is one of my favorite EQs, especially for electric guitars. I think it’s the best electric guitar EQ that there is.”
– Joe Chicarelli (The Shins, My Morning Jacket, The Killers)
“The Trident A-Range EQ plug-in has lots of color and is great on snare drums. ”
– Hans Zimmer (The Dark Knight, Gladiator)
“I love the high-end boost of the UAD Trident A-Range EQ. It’s extremely musical all across the board.”
– Ariel Borujow (Chromeo, Mac Miller, Madonna)
“The UAD Trident A-Range plug-in has the sonic integrity of the original hardware.”

Great character eq
This eq has vibe and character and sounds great on guitars. Use it on acoustics to get that 70's Bowie sound. Beautiful.

Want a retro EQ that's beefy and has some bite? Get the Trident!
I got this one on a whim, and I am LOVING IT on my Moog synth. It has a little more girth than the API EQ, more aggressive than a Neve, and not as harsh as the Helios. I'd say the closest...

I got this one on a whim, and I am LOVING IT on my Moog synth. It has a little more girth than the API EQ, more aggressive than a Neve, and not as harsh as the Helios. I'd say the closest in EQ tone is probably the Chandler Curve Bender, but the Trident's limited EQ options got me to a desirable tone much quicker. I'm looking forward to trying this on sources that need some attitude.

Dear UAD (U A dream) , Your Trident emulation sounds like sweet caramel, gluing so well my favorite frequencies. I used it so far to EQ my acoustic guitars and it's sounds gorgeous. Thank you again.

Input/output section
Hey UA,
I'm a a UAD enthusiast and use almost all of the UAD plugins in my work.
I have the Trident A-Range EQ Plugin, but I was wondering if there is ever a chance that you would model the input section of the A,B, or Consoles in a Unison pre-style plugin.
Perhaps I'm misunderstanding what the A-Range EQ plugin is doing in the input/output section, though. Is the input/output section modeled in this plug-in as well? Just curious.
Thanks for all the great gear and plugins!. Adams
Guitars!!!!!
This thing is a beast on guitars. It’s great on other stuff too, toms, bass, certain vocals but man it comes alive on distorted guitars. Playing around with different combos of hi and lo pass filters can really shape the tone before you even get to the rest of the filters.
A. Reverberi
What a gem!
My new favorite EQ. I used to work on a Trident 80B and this EQ definitely captures the vibe and sound of Trident.
J. Boes
Sweet and low!
I love the sweet sounds of this EQ. The low end on my kick is perfect!

Hidden Gem
This is the secret sauce I was imagining all its more famous consoles could do! It’s just the lift any guitar has been needing. Try it, I’m sure this is what you’ve been waiting for.

Incredible
Amazing sound and character. Great ease of use and the response is smooth. Great quality.

Proche du Hardware
C'est un très bon plugin, l'eq est précise et musicale. Facile à prendre en main et proche du son du hardware. Seul petit bémol par rapport au hardware, il faut faire attention au dosage des fréquences hautes qui peuvent des fois être un peu criardes si on ne fait pas attention.
S. Pomeroy
Wow, what a beautiful, sweet and musical EQ
A dream to use. I now find it hard to use any other console when recording.
Everything now sounds so big and sweet.T. Lymperis
Wow! Vintage sound !
I’ve never heared something like this eq in my life before. Worth every cent! It has character.
Love you UA.P. Degen
Great
This is the EQ for me, not too fancy, not difficult to use, just does everything I want.
J. Barthélémy
Très efficace
C'est l'égaliseur que j'utilise le plus souvent. Il est très pratique et très simple d'utilisation avec le traitement sur 4 bandes de fréquence. Les filtres Highpass et Lowpass s'avèrent très pratique pour placer les instrument dans le mix.
J. Tristán
Más que una EQ
Esto es más que una EQ. Su capacidad de trabajar en los medios tonos es impresionante, así como todas las combinaciones de filtros de las que dispone. Te permite usar la EQ para pulir un sonido o para cambiarle el carácter por completo. Una batería moderna la he llegado a hacer sonar como una de los 70 estilo UK poniendo sólo una instancia en el bus de la batería. Una pasada.

Fantastic
Very well!!!
