Feature/ProChan Request - Pultec EQ
It is time. We have 1176, SSL, LA2A, and now it's time we saw a Pultec eq for the ProChan.
I love the sound of the ProChan eq we have now. Very transparent and musical (I do hate that word - musical, but anyway..). A bit smoother than sonitus I find. But all the eq's we have from cake tend to be pretty neutral sounding (to my not so super trained ears). I want something with COLOR! The only Pultec emulation I've heard is the Antress Modern one. I don't know if it's a good copy or not, but it does amazing things to the low end. Until I find something better, it's going on every single kick and bass track I ever use! It just adds some amazing meat to it that you can't get with a standard eq.
So anyway. What say you guys about getting cake to do a Pultec type ProChan module? Maybe something which combines the EQP-1A (high and low frequencies) and the MEQ-5 (which is more about mid frequencies). Is this something people think is worth a feature request?

The pultecs are strange but once you get a feel for them. they really are sweet. I've been useing the Waves JJP Puigtec bundle . Search out some pultec how to videos and you get the concept.

Try the Antress Modern one. http://antress.blogspot.com/ It's not bad. Comparison video can be found here (to the UAD Pultec) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LlgUtncaqw

+1 for the pultec module. I use the IK multimedia and have also used the modern (antress) pugin as well. Love it on bass and drums. This one is also free and very good! http://dsp.sonimus.com/products/soneq/

Hi Matt,
I think it better than the modern one, I also use his console emulation plugin called Satson and really like it too.
Soneq is very close to the IK multimedia one and the the drive and woow can be a lot of fun!!
I have also tried the waves ones and Nomad factory one as well as a few other Pultec type ones but have been very happy with IK and soneq.

Check VSTPlanet.com. There is a freebie called Pushtec that is a lot better than the Antress. I have used it on many occassions and had very good results. Only bad thing is it's 32 bit. Still sounds great though.

Hey folks, this was posted earlier in the Software forum, but if you're interested in a Pultec plugin that's both CHEAP and GOOD, you should check out the OverTone PTC-2A. I picked this up after demoing against several other highly touted EQs and it stood out to my ears -- it's very clean, punchy, and has none of the digital hash that afflicts so many plugins. And get this: this month, it'll set you back the princely sum of 15 British pounds (about $25 US). A no-brainer! OverTone's plugins were apparently developed by a former SSL engineer. The sonic quality bears that out -- this Pultec emu beats all others I've tried with its smooth, natural sound. It comes in VST and AU formats for PC and Mac. 64-bit available, too. Here's their link: OverToneDSP Note: no affiliation, just a happy customer. Cheers, Eddie Edit: fixed link

+10000000000 on Over Tone DSP! I got the PTC-2A after having downloaded countless demos from other brands and this one blows away the competition (in my humble opinion of course!). And like Eddie points out, at fifteen bucks, this is a STEAL! Note: Same here, not affiliated with Over Tone, just an enthusiastic fan!
