The best graphic EQ GUI is Pro-Q2 for me, though I think the new Surfer EQ2 is quite beautiful (but dongles? no thanks).

Neither are low priced but in my opinion a top-of-the-line EQ is more essential than just about any other plugin investment. I spent awhile meandering with a bunch of low/mid-priced EQs, including several mentioned above, and I could have saved money if I had just sprung for Pro-Q2 in the first place - because Pro-Q2 replaced them all in an instant.

FabFilter Pro-Q 2's GUI is amazing.

But even in Germany, there are lots of people who can't afford top of the line products.

ProQ and Equilibrium are great, no doubt they're a life saver for professionals, but for the rest of us, TB EQ or Melda do the job perfectly. As an amateur, I don't really feel the need for another EQ for now. Also, some DAWs integrated EQ are really good, like the one in Logic.

I would recommend a look at the Sell & Buy forum here at KVR. Always lots of good bargains.

My personal 2nd favourite EQ would be PSPs Neon HR. It has a very good GUI and lots of cool features - especially the frequency/overtone hunting function can be a life saver. I have used it quite a lot but recently replaced it with Pro-Q2 in all my projects, so now I'm selling my Neon HR license on ebay. If anyone is interested...

Just for the record: we don't. (except maybe in Bünde, whereever that may be)

I guess for 999€ you can't expect a 64bit version...

I also like the super-creative use of "definitely" here...

Well I supposed if people were bringing up DMG Equilibrium and Pro-Q when the OP specifically asked for CHEAP... I thought might as well :p

Fabfilter might be way to go if they have a sale

Fab Filter Pro Q 2

The author of this less and less useful thread should change its title, because we're getting way too many useless answers.

Indeed, but I 'fixed' my first recommendation (Pro-Q 2) with my second (PrimeEQ).

And still, after you buy one of the big boys, you'll hardly think of buying an eq again.

Stock Cubase's and PT's ones are OK.
Try Melda one.

best Graphic GUI EQ?
