Default T-racks EQ useless

I find it to be really harsh and one of the chaepest sounding EQ plug-ins!!

Strangely enough, as much as I adore T-Racks, I actually agree with this comment. Glad to know I'm not the only one...

Plus none of the presets are really saved with your session. That whole bundle is garbage.

There is a patch to fix that bug. Check your IK user area.

I don't know about the bundle - I use the standalone app. For that purpose (mastering) it is a fantastic tool. Just the eq kinda bites.

I think the eq sounds good if you know how to set it.

I had to login just to tell you that exact thing. The Waves EQ sounds much better than the T-Racks EQ included in the Digi bundle.

I'll admit, I haven't used the PC RTAS T-Racks plug-in, but I have used the standalone on the PC side and the RTAS plugs for Mac, and from that experience I advise you to get your ears cleaned. I don't care if nobody agrees, I've done side-by-side tests. Hell, take Waves Q10 and set all the bands to flat, and just compare it against bypass. Even when it's not adjusting anything it's garbling the treble. The Waves plugs are highly versatile and good in a pinch, but they come with a substantial cost to tone.

So unless someone can tell me there's a difference in performance between the PC and Mac RTAS T-Racks plugs, I declare shenanogans.
