Pushtec appreciation thread

[bool]

No, it was regarding the original.

Although, regarding the Pushtec: try to look at phase graph with the phase knob set to invert (it's an 'almost instant' house sound).

Btw.: who is the real coder ?

Btw.: who is the real coder ?

Good question. I'd like to know that as well. He once asked me to help him out coding that plugin. I gave them my complete VST framework and I even compiled the WinAmp version for them. I also uploaded the version to WinAmp, but I don't get any credits from them. Not too bad, because otherwise people might think that I was responsible for the DSP stuff, which I was not! I only provided some help and that's the reason why I also not comment the plugin's quality.

Um abraço,

Christian

P.S.: I finally released the VST plugin framework at sourceforge (see here). This contains a simple graphic EQ example which contains the filter class I sent to the guy called Leonardo (I doubt that it is his real name though).

Interesting. Thanks for clearing up.

I'm gonna do a comparison tomorrow between the Pushtec EQ and the URS emu to see how close it can come. Don't have a UAD-1 to test it against their emu, which I'm sure is fantastic. So jealous of you UAD-1 guys. Anyway, should I post results here, or in a new thread?

A/B Tested UAD-1 Pultec vs. Pushtec

I love it, too. I was surprised actually how much I loved it, since I have lots of really good EQs already. But this one sounds very nice. Haven't got round to comparing it against other EQs yet, I just really like its style.

I have to agree, i just found it and I'm very pleasantly surprised.

Is there an OSX version up ahead?

[JamieSkeen]

bug fixes? In tracktion 2 with more than one instance i get clicks and wierdness when i open the gui

[LeftoverLasagne]

hey guys

yup an OSX version is planed and it shouldn't take too long (whatever that means) however Leonardo is currently swamped with work so it could take a tiny bit longer then we expected

with regards

PushTech sounds great! (btw I also own a Pultec on UAD)

[JavaJim]

Pushtec - sry

[shanecgriffo]

just been mucking about doing some recording/playing and i have to say pushtec really allows some clarity on my pianos (artvista virtual grand and malmsjo) its a great free plugin ,, thanks again
Any one else still using this eq regularly and getting good results?

[Marco Raaphorst]

Here is a small demo about non-linearities. One file is the basic track and the other has added non-linearities to it. I tried to match the volume as carefully as I could. The frequency response has also changed a bit, this is only natural as most analogue devices do not have perfect frequency response (nor does my RME card either for that matter!). I actually made this little test for myself already several weeks ago but I'll post it here just as an example.

File 1

File 2

File 3

Using proper ABX testing software is recommended although I don't find this that subtle at all.

Cheers!

Edit: one more example thrown in to the test.. on second though, maybe all these are a bit subtle.

B and C has sharper transients. It's obvious. What are you trying to prove though? I don't understand...

Is this EQ based on RJB or Orfandis or is it a custom algo?

[DJ Z]

Great EQ....GREAT !!!
