Hey Craig. Thanks so much for the response.
You're so right....in the end it truly is just a matter of personal taste and whatever a certain track may call for. As great sounding as these plugins are....Sometimes it's possible to get too much of a good thing. :) That being said, I am going to try this on my next project. I think I am going to purchase the T-Racks EQ 81, which is based on the Neve 1081 console, and use it on my tracks along with Sonar's N-Type emulator module. The hard part will be trying to keep an objective ear since it's quite easy to want more and more of that "lush" sound.
Do you, or anyone else out there, have any experience with the EQ 81 plugin? From what I've heard and read it looks like IK Multimedia have absolutely nailed the characteristics.
