apQualizr2 has become my default EQ in Pro Tools.

I have FabFilter Pro-Q 4, I almost never use it ahead of apQualizr2.

Key Features:
• Intuitive and rapid setup for ducking functionality
• Separate modulation section in the lower tool dock
• Direct routing into the dynamic module.

Dynamic Controls:
The plugin offers comprehensive dynamic control with adjustable:
• Look-ahead timing
• Hold, attack, and release parameters
• Knee settings (click from soft to hard)
• Upward compression ratios
• Downward compression
• Detection modes: Peak, RMS, or Transient for super-fast response
* Every filter, harmonic, gain, frequency can be modulated and I find it quicker to tweak than my other fav Melda.

The workflow is streamlined and the interface makes complex dynamic EQ tasks surprisingly accessible.

Rise2Red.

I'm lucky enough to work in a well stocked studio, I have the big hitters from Reason 12, Live 11, Logic Pro X, though most days I'm in Pro Tools with the aforementioned hanging off a port or 2. This innocuous little fellow is possibly the most inspirational generator I have at my disposal. For Trance, Uplifting, the arpeggio possibilities are endless, layered up on a mouse click with a strum, lead stab, bass of various articulation

Where it shines in my humble opinion is the instant flow of generative melodies supporting or top line it can bring into play alongside a 4 on the floor, all happening in a window no larger than half a mouse pad.

I have Patchwork for Pro Tools sessions, in logic you can insert on the MIDI slot, pass through enabled. It's also intuitive, no small feat considering the options at hand, I have all the P.I.B. MIDI tools, I found limitations or study requirements in most, this thing gets you flying in the first few seconds, I was surprised to find an absence of reviews and felt a quick summary was deserved by way of a heads up to the MIDI community, in time this will be the standard go to, rock solid build which has yet to crash on Monterey back to Mojave

Outstanding.
