EQ Plugins

VST, AU, AAX, CLAP, etc. Plugin Virtual Effects Discussion

I have tried many parametric EQs and havent found any single worth to pay and use as an echange for native eq that comes with DAW. FL Studio Parametric EQ 2 just does the job very well + has spectrogram.

My advice: dont buy any, learn to use the one that comes with DAW.

p.s. Why you need any more anyways, its just an eq it wount make your music to better, not like compressor or saturation plugins can.

EQ is the only thing you should be concerned about, if your concern is to make your music sound better. If you can't EQ, you can't mix.

I am not sure, what you mean...

If your statement is, you should know how to use an EQ properly you are 100% right...

If you want to state, you should worry about the quality of your EQ and should spend a lot of money on overhyped stuff, you cannot be more wrong... fact is, with any digital eq, which is coded correctly you can achieve the same results like any other available EQ on the market...

The only differences I see, with some EQ's it's less work to get the result you want to achieve and the GUI have to "click" with you...
Everything else is nonsense and noone, who wanted to convince me the opposite could show me an example, while there are a lot of examples from very hard working people all over the Internet prooving, what I am saying here...

It's always funny to see, how many people are spending a whole lot of time defending their fanboyism to hyped products with nothing but hot air and are not able to provide an convincing example... for doing this, they are too busy :hihi:

You are right. For instance, I can get the same results by boosting 60hz on DDMF ProEQ, as well as on any Pultec Emulation. The difference is almost unnoticeable.

BootEQ from Variety of Sound is much better IMO:

I wasn't defending any particular eq, I was responding to the dumb post saying that eq doesn't make your tracks sound better. Some EQ's do sound different, so I'm not really agreeing with what you say either. There are a lot of analog modelling differences.

+1 . Boosting lows in both sections gives a really nice "boom" and for free.

It's not x64 though, so it CAN'T sound good :hihi:

They do not sound different... that's the whole point...

If you know how, you can emulate any existing filter shape with any digital EQ...
If there is some "analog emulation"... that means to 95% only saturation... no miracle here...

And about the example mentioned here about the pultec emulations... if you know the ratio between the boost and the "attenuation" it's quite easy to reproduce this behaviour...

For everything else of "magical sound"... feel free to post some examples, which are only possible with EQ XYZ... I am curious to hear them...
If you cannot... would be just another proof for my statement...
