Familiar and effective.
I've used a similarly laid out EQ in another DAW and this is easy to use, no learning curve for me at all, sounds great, and is effective. I dig it. E....

Simple & Musical
I did not expect to like this EQ. The GUI is really ugly, to me anyway. It's also a little on the small side. But that adaptive Q thing it has going on is just so musical. Not always...

I did not expect to like this EQ. The GUI is really ugly, to me anyway. It's also a little on the small side. But that adaptive Q thing it has going on is just so musical. Not always what I want, but I got used to is so quickly. I will probably over use it... Also, so many filter slopes that I feel like I need to go back to school... and I'll definitely need to read the manual for the 3 "Type" options. No idea what those are yet... excited to find out. :)

Great EQ
I use the cambridge EQ always in my mastering channel. It ist very smooth and sounds great.
A. Ayer
Great but late
Great sounding EQ with a lot of versatility. I don’t use it a lot because I find it has high latency.
M. Park
great
I Like it
B. Thomas
It Works Well
I use it on the drum and instrument bus to take out the muddiness. It gives the the bright bump up in energy I was looking for that made me buy it.
N. Cifaldi
Fantastic!
sounds great. Super intuitive, nice visual eq!
D. Echegorri
Simple de entender, fácil de usar.
No soy experto, pero lo que busco en un ecualizador es poder ajustar los parámetros fácilmente y visualizar la curva de graves, agudos y medios. Este ecualizador lo hace muy bien y de manera sencilla! Suena muy bien! Vale la pena!
K. Hudson
Only thing missing…
The plug in works very well. The only thing that would make it great is RMS metering would be available to make adjusting even quicker. Time is money.
D. Fackler
Can't get tight enough EQ's.
The Q Value of the plugin really lacks. You can not bring it tight enough when doing major boosts or major cuts, thus removing stuff one does not want to remove.

Most underrated UAD plug in
the title says it all. it's my most used eq. used it all the time in 2000s, and recently went back to it.
L. Geldenhuis
Still a worthy addition to your EQ collection.
This has become my most used EQ.
I use it mainly for subtractive EQ. It's transparent, has great filters and it's light on CPU.
I don't boost with it often. Otherwise to admit I have to many plugins ;)
