Intuition

Great for intuitive tone shaping without sweeping through the frequencies. Obviously not suitable for surgical corrections but that's not the goal here anyway.

The Perfect Interface

The main problem with graphic eq's is getting a precise change without overshooting three times. Kazrog made the slider adjustment effortless and precise. A move with the mouse clicked over a slider gives very attainable one-tenth incremental changes that happen smoothly and predictably, so you can see you're getting change. I'm not eq'ing for a certain level, but with this I know that as I'm dialing in a sound by ear (which is so easy with this eq) my eyes are confirming the changes I'm hearing, and I know when I've hit my target. I love it.

Say goodbye to overthinking

the eq sounds absolutely amazing with a genuine craft to the auto gain. I dont feel like i have to be a scientist to shape my tone with this eq , I just have to be an artist doing art.

Loving it

Of the ridiculously vast hardware eq emulations I have, this one immediately jumped to a favorite goto. Extremely musical and great at dialing in tone, on tracks, to buses, to master channel.
