it's magical

I'm sure there are even better Pulteq clones out there, but as far as I'm concerned, this one is already good enough for mastering.

Since it has no tube, the low end is a little bit weaker than in the 19'' rack version, but still excellent. Now, having two different frequency settings in the low end is a very, very convenient feature.

The high end is where it really shines: It's super clear and smooth as silk.

The pots feel sturdy, and their being stepped is excellent for setting recall.

I totally recommend this device. I couldn't do without it, now that I've tried it.

Fantastic unit

It adds a very nice layer on the clinical sound of ITB mixing. Simply great purchase.

Awesome Unit

Great EQ and beautiful colour blue, looks better in real life than on the picture.

I have it in an API lunchbox in the left corner and looks great.

More important is the sound and that is simply stunning. I have it on the mixbus but will properly use it on individual track too. It's a tool I can't live without anymore.

Great stereo EQ

I have used the Rubber Bands for some time in stereo groups and masters, it gives a subtle colour to the sound even though the ATTEN is pretty heavy (handle with care).

Once you get used to it you will put it in every track!
