Dangerous BAX EQ Collection
-
Sweeten your mixes with one of
the smoothest EQs around.
The Dangerous BAX EQ Plug-In Collection is a powerful tool for shaping and enhancing the tonality and character of your music. Designed as a “finishing EQ,” the BAX EQ Collection is an authentic plug-in emulation of this studio staple for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces.
Now You Can:
Apply sweet, musical EQ tweaks based on Peter Baxandall's legendary 1950s EQ circuitry
Rid your mix of unwanted subsonic frequencies, cleaning up the low-end and increasing your headroom
Tame high-end harshness while simultaneously opening up your mixes with air and transparency
Enhance stereo imagery and depth with Mid/Side function on stereo “Master” version
“The Dangerous BAX EQ is my new favorite box to put across my whole mix. It lets me achieve that modern pop brightness without any of the usual sibilance or harshness. The super low-end is fat without being muddy.”
– Fab Dupont (Shakira, Santigold, Jennifer Lopez)
“As an avid user of the hardware, I was stoked to see the UAD BAX EQ Collection. After using the BAX EQ Master plug-in with the M/S option, I have only one word — awesome.”
– John Paterno (Robbie Williams, Badly Drawn Boy, Bonnie Raitt)Customer Reviews

"Subtle And Rich"
Great Tool to have in your Library. Title of the review says it.
For the people who have used it before and know what it does , no problem. For someone who's never used one ,"Tutorials and Time" = Great results.A. Tomashenko
Very musical sounding
Like this one so much, especially with engaged mid and side option (+ unlink them), and then after the necessary tweaking - boost a side gain a bit.

A Must Have...
I read quite a few reviews regarding the hardware and I can't find one negative comment. The plugin opens up a smooth sheen air image on the top end that transforms the mix/master for the better. The M/S is a sweet tool. This is UAD top 10 good.
T. Courte
Excellent Plugin
I love this plugin. Very smooth and does not get in the way. It maintains and enhances the integrity of a track or mix. I purchased this plugin yesterday, and like it so much that I'm ordering the hardware today.
L. Roccatagliati
Perfect!
I really love this kind of EQ, that is perfect on master bus, or on any general bus....just to cut or push super high or extra low frequencies. Essential

A Game Winner
This Plugin is a game winner! As a polishing tool for mastering i didn't find anything better in the plugin world up to now. It's easy to use, very effective and the sound is magic. To all the complainers i want to say: don't complain, just go and buy the at least ten times more expensive hardware. i'm more than happy with the plugin, it's brilliant!
K. Morris
I regret this purchase. It's useful, but it doesn't shine.
I had high hopes for this, and although I'd used it before buying I've found since that I just don't like the character it tends to imbue. It might be a taste thing, I certainly can't point to any technical problem. I rarely use this plugin, and when I do it's only for subtractive work. Adding with it doesn't please my ears.
A. Miller
Amazing
Absolutely fantastic

gorgeous lifts
I have never used the hardware so cannot say if it is accurate.. What i CAN say, is that it sounds gorgeous for sweetening. I use it in every single project and highly recommend it. Smooth and silky sound.

The final touch
When I tried it the first time, I was a little bit disappointed because it seemed a little bit too subtle. But after a few seconds I realized that it really brings the final touch to your material, that you can't get from other EQs. The high and bottom end really get a "professional record feel".

Mix oder Master?
Ich benutze den BAX in den Kanälen beim Mischen und sehr gerne im Mastering. Wie fast alles von UAD ein muss für UAD-User.
A. Sokolich
Most Phenomenal EQ I have ever used.
This is the most wonderful EQ, nothing can match it at all. even the maag eq2 or 4 cant come close. it just makes thing sound sweet. Cant live without it.
M. Rdz
Always on my mastering chain !
Really simple to use plugin ! Try it on your master, your mixes will love it! Very musical!
