Hi. Somebody knows what about Marroco active preset ?
The option to add Odds harmonics will be fantastic.
HP & LP routing please.

Marroco: what hardware Eq emulate?
Option to put HP & LP after saturation. (Maybe 10.10 update?)
The saturation in MTurboEq its Tube saturation . Why not Transformer saturation?

Emulation from an emulation... 
but sounds good.
May be in a next update have the option to move the filters to the output after saturation.
Thanks.

I'm afraid filters after saturation are not planned. You can always add saturation or filters manually after all.
As for emulation of emulation - the sound is important! Not the source. It may well sound better than the original hardware . Who knows 
Probably depends on the person and material

+1 for selectable "saturation colors" (transformer, tape, tube,..) for MTurboEQ
I was also wondering what the Marroco preset was all about. So thanks for the clarification.
From the Waves Manny Marroquin EQ Manual:
Concepts, Terminology & Interface
Manny Marroquin essentially has six go-to equalizers: Quad 8, Neve 1073, Motown, API
550, Avalon 2055 and SSL 9080 XL K. The idea behind the Manny Marroquin EQ plugin
was to recreate this personalized palette of frequency shapers. Since the cutoff for each
band comes from a different one of Manny’s units, it delivers interesting results that add
complexity, color and depth. Additionally, because each cutoff is from a different EQ,
moving between cutoffs results in minor inconsistencies between the various curves, as
well as slight gain changes. For instance, an increase of 4.5 dB on one band might be
4.9 on another.
HP is inspired by the high pass filter on Manny’s SSL 9080 XL K desk, ranging from 16
Hz to 750 Hz, continuously. The frequency anchors indicated around the control
represent HP cutoff points selected by Manny for quick access.
Band 1
For low bands, Manny usually uses one of two EQs : A Quad 8 or a Neve 1073. The 50 Hz, 140 Hz and 250 Hz cutoffs come from the Quad 8; 110 Hz and 220 Hz come from the 1073. While 50 Hz and 140 Hz from the Quad 8 are wide bells, the 250 Hz from the same EQ is much narrower. The 110 Hz and 220 Hz are shelf type filters.
Band 2
For low mid/mid band EQs, Manny’s Quad 8 and Motown take center stage. 250 Hz, 400 Hz and 1500 Hz are inspired by the Quad 8, while the 320 Hz and 800 Hz hail from the Motown. Please note: The 250 Hz cutoff is identical to the one in Band 1; they overlap so you can cut at 250 Hz while boosting a different low frequency.
Band 3
The mid/ high mid range is inspired by three different units: The Motown, the Neve 1073 and the API 550B. The 800 Hz and 5 kHz cutoffs are inspired by the Motown; 1.6 kHz and 3.2 kHz by the 1073; and 8 kHz by the API 550B. Please note: The 800 Hz is identical to the one in Band 2; they overlap so you can cut or boost at 800 Hz while boosting/ cutting a different low mid/mid frequency in Band 2.
Band 4
Unlike the other bands, the high frequency range was inspired by only one unit, an
Avalon 2055. According to Manny, the high frequencies on this EQ are so silky that he rarely uses anything else. Cutoff points range from 10 kHz to 25 kHz, which adds some beautiful “air.” This band also has a shelf/bell selector.
LP is inspired by the low pass filter on Manny’s SSL 9080 XL K desk, ranging from 21
kHz to 1.8 kHz continuously. The frequency anchors indicated around the control
represent HP cutoff points selected by Manny for quick access.[/b][/b][/b]

I'm afraid the saturation colors won't happen in MTurboEQ. It just works different, and it's an EQ anyways. Sorry.
