No. Its all subjective.
An idiot on Set Theory:
"In some cases there is an object called red that contains everything that is red. In much the same way a pot is a plate."

CPU usage, which is pretty vital for a track eq is not subjective.
That said, IMHO VSTi tracks rarely need eq, and if you are working with audio tracks, there's plenty of juice available.
I use PLParEQ3 and sometimes Poshifopit, which are probably the highest quality free eqs, but use a lot of CPU.

That statement makes no sense. Its one's own subjective choice at to whether CPU usage would be a deciding factor in one's choice, and to what degree. If you decided absolutely you wanted to use a specific EQ that required 65% CPU usage then you'd do so in offline processing. Its still subjective..jon wrote:CPU usage, which is pretty vital for a track eq is not subjective.
The word 'best' has no intrinsic interdependency with 'low CPU usage'.

whyterabbyt seem to be bored with the "the best" threads...
Me too, actually
It is quite subjective... but I can recommend, say, Posihfopit

Looks likely that it was you who missed it. But as you say, dont worry..jon wrote:I guess you just missed the point, whyterabbit, such happens - don't worry.

No, not for him. Low CPU toll is just mandatory for a track eq.
In my subjective (happy now?) view PLParEQ3 is the best sounding EQ, but it's not a track eq, at least not on my Centrino, and even less that on my Athlon XP.
