simple, powerful and great for everything
It does the job and sounds really good on anything. Very CPU friendly and to be honest a Pro3 boost does not sound better than this guy. I use it as a surgical EQ but when I´m boosting the...

simple, powerful and great for everything
It does the job and sounds really good on anything. Very CPU friendly and to be honest a Pro3 boost does not sound better than this guy. I use it as a surgical EQ but when I´m boosting the top end it sounds really good!!
Please make an update with an analyzer build in. That would be great!!L. Berger

My new go to
Precise, easy to handle.
In about two weeks, it’s became my new go to eq for correction. (First in most of my plugins chains)
And the 3 types of shapes for each frequency are very useful.
Low DSP use... great job !J. Geary
Clean, Simple, Classy
The title says it all this guy really nails what its intended for (all around EQ use) plus its a ghost when it comes to dsp usage. An updated gui with A/B per instance would be awesome as well as q control for the filters
A. Vladichuk
GREAT EQUALIZER!
GREAT EQUALIZER! excellent for surgical operations.
R. Katuin
Great Tool
Love it. Low DSP, great for surgical stuff. Could use a GUI update though
T. Delfini
Beautiful
I use it everywhere, awesome

Nice EQ
I wanted to find a surgical EQ for Console and Luna with a low DSP footprint. Cambridge EQ does the job and sounds fantastic and it is easy to use. I love the different type of EQ-types. It is a no-brainer if you need a surgical EQ for your Universal Audio platform.

If Michelangelo sculpted sound, this would be on his bench
Many consider Massenburg EQ the finest of this type. If money is no object, go for it. If dollars and DSP usage are a consideration, Cambridge cannot be beat on this platform.
E. Grebeznieks
Great!
Very low DSP and very excellent quality
D. Eriksson
Perfect companion to an Solo/Arrow
Very versatile and flexible. A solid go to EQ that uses very low DSP which makes it perfect together with an single DSP Solo or Arrow.

If you only own one UA Plugin, this one should be it
Ok, so there are many other plugins that do 'sexier' things than this one and give you great effects and sound manipulation, but coming from someone who owns over 90 UA Plugins, I must jump in and say that I use it on every single mix I do and sometimes on every single channel of every mix. It is the best EQ that I've ever come across. Helps you quickly roll off bass or high end and fix EQ problems with ease and precision.

Nice touch
It's magical. Just brilliant!
S. Bhebhe
I use it on every single recording
A wonderfully precise and fantastic sounding eq. With its low DSP usage, it’s found it’s way on to every one of my recordings since I bought it, either for creative sculpting or surgical corrective eq it’s a go to for any EQ situation!

Best Parametric eq out there
Nothing compares to the LP and HP filter types, just an amazing way to cut.
and the sound that comes out of it feels the truest to the parameters more than any eq iv worked withT. Davine

This EQ has changed the way I work, it has made finding undesirable frequencies quick and easy. Got it in the sales with a coupon so it is also the cheapest plugin I have bought so far. Thanks UAD.
