Same guts as the larger legends--but with different controls. It is a quirky unit which to those who have worked with ITI in later years would not be surprising. The sound is incredible and it is a great opportunity to save compared to a more traditionally housed unit.  Originally built in the early to mid 70’s for Masterfonics, it has the full production 430B boards with all HS1000 op-amps.\u003c\/p\u003e  \u003cp\u003eUnlike a stock MES-430B, it does not have stepped switches for controls, rather it has potentiometers. The face plate is printed with ±12 dB boost and cut levels but the unit has been modified to boost and cut ±6 dB. This unit has been updated with an external PSU with 7-pin XLR (same as GML power supplies). The original, non-functioning PSU has been fully bypassed but remains installed along with the original wire harness.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sontec","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44451176185959,"sku":"212231","price":8995.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0658\/8848\/5479\/files\/sontec-me-430b-mastering-equalizer-vk-01420-used_212231_1.jpg?v=1787096146","url":"https:\/\/vintageking.mom\/products\/sontec-430b-mastering-equalizer-vk-01420-used","provider":"Vintage King","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
