Cambridge EQ Plug-In

Overview

5-Band Switchable Parametric or Shelf EQ Capable of Handling Any Equalizing Chore

The Cambridge EQ is a popular UA exclusive, featuring five bands of switchable parametric or shelving EQ, plus comprehensive high and low pass filters. Choose from three types of Q for the parametric bands, and 17 different curve types for the cut filters. The interface features a graphical frequency response curve with zoom controls for fine adjustment, as well as adjustment of the gain, resonance, and frequency of each band. Unlike most EQ plug-ins, each filter is designed to emulate the response of a classic analog filter. The result is both surgical precision and ultra-smooth sound, useful in applications from mixing to mastering.

I just tested it in demo mode, but I can say it's a great-sounding and very powerful plugin.
