Reviews

Exquisito!
Uno de los mejores EQ que he probado y tengo, se convirtió en mi principal eq para todos mis trabajos! Es excelente!
Excellent alternative
This was on sale so had to pick it up. It's a great alternative to FabFilter. It doesn't have quite as many features, but still an excellent alternative.
I find it to be very clean. Overall it is a nice all purpose EQ. I was looking for something as a go to for mixing and mastering. Last thing is that the high end is really clean, so the clamping thing is a true statement. You can push it and it remains pleasant.
Useful and light on resources
Very versatile and intuitive. Has options to filter or cut each band as stereo or mid side which is the killer feature for my use case. Also the spectrum analyzer has near zero latency and is very smooth and light on cpu usage. It's a no clutter, predictable and powerful eq I can recommend.
Music background: Post production
Feedback
All of the representative for Sweetwater are very very professional and Know what they need to do when it comes to aiding the customers as a whole with their problems. Please note that they don t him ha around. They get to the exact remedy. This is why i cant stress the fact that all mthe representatives for Sweetwater are very very professional and have very good knowledge of all the programs and items for sale at the best music store in the world. Also note that they don't mess around
Music background: drumming since the age of 10
Solid state of affairs
SSL needs no intro in the music world, the buzz, hype, arguments as to its royalty for decades, is there.
Personally, the option to now choose a quality solid state platform, (I also love my console 1, ssl), is about choice selections, & getting familiar with sounds, nuances & character. Their filters, cuts & boosts, innovative eq design, whether anti cramping makes a big difference… but for approx £ from legendary Sweetwater, (along with channel strip & bus comp deal earlier)… I might have to return the call to Alejandro, their sales rep & resident musician to discuss, but for now … I'm feeling Sweet !
Music background: Reggae/ dub, sound systems, hip hop, r&b
