EQ for coloring / adding tone !
I gonna buy the Fabfilter Pro Q to use it as a surgical EQ by removing frequencies. http://www.fabfilter.com/products/pro-q-equalizer-plug-inThen i need a great EQ to add tone. I will concentrate to just have 2 EQ's in all, just to know them in depth And make the most of them. So in this case i need advice for a great sounding ( sweet ) EQ " tonality " to add what i need in the tracks. The EQ can be similar as the fabfilter in it's GUI or with 4 EQ knobs, with adjustable frequencies and Q Like the old analog style EQ's. The EQ must have fairly low CPU usage. What EQ should i go for, to get the tone, for both track's and master ?

Two EQs I think are simply to have for adding taste are the Waves SSL 4000 G-EQ, and the Waves Kramer HLS EQ. These two are my go-to EQs even though I have the API, V-Series, and JJP Analog Legends which I also use. I just think the two mentioned before are the two I use most for taste.
Brian Sonar Platinum, Steinberg Wavelab Pro 9, MOTU 24CoreIO w/ low-slew OP-AMP mods and BLA external clock, True P8, Audient ASP008, API 512c, Chandler Germ500, Summit 2ba-221, GAP Pre-73, Peluso 22251, Peluso 2247LE, Mackie HR824, Polk Audio SRS-SDA 2.3tl w/upgraded Soniccraft crossovers and Goertz cables, powered by Pass-X350. All wiring Star-Quad XLR or Monster Cable. Power by Monster Power Signature AVS2000 voltage stabilizer and Signature Pro Power 5100 PowerCenter on a 20A isolation shielded circuit.

For an EQ that may add some color and not transparent, I suggest the Waves Ren EQ's. They are like the opposite of the Fabfilter Q.
