No, they aren't just EQs. The effect is more dramatic, because
a) you can completely attenuate certain bands with *steep*
    filter slopes, and
b) certain filter banks will add a nice coloration to the sound
    even with all potentiometers at maximum.

I've built a modern version of  the Moog 907 filter bank some
weeks ago - one more step to get the "trademark Moog Modular"
sound. I'll make some demos when I find the time.
