Transparency or not, it’s your choice
I use it mainly on buses to clean some frequencies and on synths to help some frequencies to be less sharp

I have wanted it for a long time and now I am the owner of this unsurpassed warmth)

Love it
Sounds great. The user interface is responsive. Some of the buttons (boost/cut switch) are quite small and fiddly, but otherwise a nice plugin.

My permanent Master EQ
The most amazing master EQ I use on my master bus .
simply clean , even the presets are amazing.
Just a small adjustment you could hear the difference.

Does it pass the blindfold test against the hardware? Oh yes....
I used to regularly hire the actual hardware Massive Passive to finish my mixes back in early to mid 2000's ..... I know the original unit well. This emulation is ridiculously good and an accurate rendition of the original.... I called the original hardware the "silk machine" . This plug-in allows you to impart the same subtle luxurious definition in the low frequencies without overwhelming the mix, and a trademark gossamer sheen - "air" - around the top end. The "silk" metaphor especially applies to the magic this EQ imparts to vocals. Purchase with high expectations and you wont be disappointed.

Interesting understanding of customer orientation
UAD waits until you have bought a plugin for full price and sends you exactly one day later a loyality price offer for same plugin. I like their sense of humour :-D

Manley Massive Passive EQ
Great transparency for mastering!
A. Kose
Very close to the hardware!
I have the real thing but this is a pretty good plug-in if you’re looking for that similar mojo. On some applications you can barely hear the difference!
It takes some getting used to but when you know this unit - it can be a tasty little tool. Very clean and a unique modern Pultec style Eq!
R. Amor

Not Just Another EQ
I thought "do I really need another EQ?" After using one this I do! It's hard to make adjustments that sound bad, it's so smooth. What do I do with all my other eq's?
W. Manke
EQ Thank you!
It makes you sad when you turn this plugin off. I pair it with the Vari Mu for great at home "mastering"
It's really fun to push your sounds around with this eq, because it is never wrong, just different.

Worth every penny
I LOVE this eq its so musical and so smooth. It's basically the ultimate pultec. and that's pretty much what the hardware is supposed to be. when I get the budget for a real hardware unit I can still see myself using this in my mixes
E. ARRUDA
Indispensable tool for MixBus and master.
Great for fine-tuning mixBus and shaping Bus-tracks!
A. Portillo
Lovely
This EQ is smooth, transparent and subtle, as it should be. It is a mastering EQ. I am in love with this EQ mastering should be better with this state-of-the art device. I cannot do anything else but love it! you will too! I recommend it. As to whether it sounds similar to the hardware, I would not know, because I do not own or have ever worked on it. However, I know that this is one of the best EQs out there!
