I love the Group EQ function of Smart EQ.
I love the TB EQ Pro's surgical nature and ease of modulation. However, I don't do much modulation of EQ, and if I did, I have UVI Shade.
What am I missing? i have heard a lot of mention of TB EQ Pro but ....
Tonebuster's EQ Pro vs Sonible Smart EQ 4

I really like the Ambience and dynamics options on TB Pro EQ. I've gotten into the habit of always putting an instance after a reverb and sometimes after delays, to change their emphasis.

A little embarrassing that I didn't catch on that "Tonebusters" was wrong even when it was pointed out. I just think of it as "TB."
Although, if someone had called it "Tuberculosis Equalizer Pro" I probably would have noticed

Toneboosters EQ PRO:
From the homepage:
Adaptive filters for dedicated tasks
Some of our brand-new, innovative filter types providing unprecedented control
Transient filters
Attenuate, amplify, EQ, or design transients
No need for separate transient design tools with our brand-new integrated transient filter types. Transient filters equalize transients only, and leave sustaining parts of the track or mix untouched.
Sustain filters
The perfect complement to transient filters
Sustain filters equalize sustaining (non-transient) parts of a signal only, while leaving onset transients untouched. Perfect for EQ-ing sustaining and decaying segments of your mix elements independently from their onset.
Direct & Ambiance filters
Adjust spatial attributes based on advanced spatial source separation1
Using advanced spatial source separation algorithms, direct and ambiance filters can equalize reverberant or diffuse (ambiance) elements independently from direct elements, providing unprecedented control over spatial attributes.
Sibilance filters
Filters that respond like a professional de-esser
Reduce excess sibilance easily without requiring dedicated tools. Sibilance filters respond to frequency components that 'stick out' in relation to the overall signal level.
Background filters
Subtly process background sounds or apply gating expansion
Subtly amplify or attenuate background elements in your mix by level-dependent upward compression or expansion with our novel background filter types, or use the dedicated gating filters to more aggressively remove or amplify background signals.
External sidechain filters
Frequency-selective side-chain2 compression or expansion
Enhance or duck frequency ranges based on external side-chain activity. External side-chain compression, track spacing, frequency-dependent ducking and more directly from within the EQ.
Unmask filters beta
Gain riding made easy2
Apply a frequency-selective gain that matches the amount of auditory masking caused by other tracks in your mix. Automatic gain riding was never this easy!
Brickwall filters
Our steepest filters ever - without latency
Brickwall lowpass and highpass filters can aggressively remove low-frequency rumble, protect signals from causing aliasing or distortion by removing ultrasonic components and more.
Learn and match
Get that spectral balance right every time.
Learn average spectra and create match-EQ settings interactively. Import and export learned spectra. Learn pre or post EQ, or from an external side-chain input6. Match-EQ parameters can be modified after automatic matching analysis.
Fully immersive
Supporting virtually every audio format with up to 64 audio channels.
Host integration
Inspect EQ curves from your host's mixer or track panel. Control surface integration.
EQ curve integration in track inspector or mixer4. Support for EUCON control surface integration.
Lookahead without latency
No more compromises!
Deep host integration, combined with predictive and adaptive analysis technology allow for dynamics processing that has the benefits of lookahead but doesn't suffer from latency.
