Might sound like a broken record, but Waves plugins have become the standard for mixing and mastering... I wouldn't use anything else

the standard one in FL7 (EQUO), does a great job and its got lots of flexibility.
its just like a graphic equalizer with lots of frequencies that you can edit/cut/boost.

Yeah, I use the EQUO pretty often, it's like a spectrum analyzer/equalizer that can be set to a specific instrument, I use it a lot when I'm working with my basses.

it's because waves is a studio standard like pro tools. It's a quite pure and heavy cpu usage. If I were to make a .FLP for people to use, i would assume people would have waves, over any other plug-ins.

good for you, quad-core snob!
isnt there a sort of a "freeze" button in frooty which applies the effect and then you dont have to use it anymore, to save cpu usage? but its bad cause it creates huge project files because it contains tracks in audio?
frooty sucks for collab, reason is god there

A good way to test eqs is to take 2 identical sounds and reverse the polarity of one so they null to silence, then run the sounds through different eqs and try to match the settings. If they both cancel to nothing then they're basically the same.
There has been some interesting tests done like this lately and a lot of the high end eqs don't sound any different to the much cheaper ones!

Fruity Parametric EQ 2
Btw does anyone know any EQ plugin that can cut/boost individual frequencies (in example if I have a disturbing sound at 657Hz, I can just cut that particular freq out)?

The one in reason, not that I use EQ that much
Prefer playing with filters instead, but then again I never do anything the conventional way
