    Couldn't agree more...
    Pultec style EQ module woudl be excellent!
    In fact, that would pretty much finish out my basic mixing tools of choice.
    1176, SSL Bus, and LA-2A dynamics processors
    SSL Channel strip and Pultec style EQ

    Sorry about the extra "h".. I meant Pultec!

    I use the OverTone VST all of the time on the kick and to sculpt my guitar tone! Perhaps Cakewalk could strike a licensing deal?

    Peace!

    I got UAD Pultecs all over my projects, which puts quite a lot of strain on my single UAD-1 card. A latency-free PC module with the same quality as the PC2A would be terrific!

    Cast my vote in favor of a Pultec ProChannel module.  I use my T-Racks Vintage EQ EQP-1A on many a track, and would welcome one in my current ProChannel centric workflow most readily.

    +101 on a Pultech PC module!  I have three Pultech emulations (UAD, IK and NomadFactory).  It is one (3) of my favorite plugins.  Having a quality prochannel Pultech EQ (of the same quality as the PC Limiter and PC2A) would be absolutely wonderful, and oh so convenient.  Please, please, pretty please.  Great Idea!!!

    The SSL channel strip doesn't side-chain (internally).
    The included dynamics processor is "serviceable".  I don't use it much... so not a deal-breaker for me.
    The EQ is flexible... and works great (for me).
    • Separate high-pass and low-pass filters
    • Low peaking/shelf (switchable)
    • High peaking/shelf (switchable)
    • Two separate mid bands (fully parametric)

    Ok as soon as they do this and then do a Fairchild limiter, does any one want my UAD card.

    I have been saying for a while now and mark my words this will happen, The Cake are trying to take on UAD.  And they are doing it sucsefully in my ears.

    The LA2 as an example, the only difference between UAD's offering and Cakes was Cakes was slightly shinear.  And then it's half price, and then I don't need a DSP card.

    Come on Cake reveal your hand, take on UAD by all means but let us the consumer know, so I do go and buy any more UAD stuff!!!.

    If this the is case too start thinking of some sort cross deal for UAD users, I am with you all the way.

    Christ I am a dumbfuk, I complained about the new Cake paradigm and now all I want is PC modules to replace my UAD stuff.

    Mainly because UAD have sold us down the river, I have an express card for my laptop: discontinued, whats the point of buying new UAD stuff if by chance my card breaks or I buy a new computer thata does not have express slot.

    Ok disclaimer, off topic again but Cake has my full support on their PC modules and this has divided the user base, I'm sorry Mike McCue because he is on the other side of the fence, you've got to love Mike.

    Disclamer 2, really off topic.

    ontopic, yes I want a Pultec EQ module and I know what the UAD Pultec sounds like, so I could compare apples and oranges with this one.

    Likewise.

    The T-Racks is a bit resource intensive - at least it was on my old machine, so a lighter version would really come in handy.

    I think, for me at any rate, it will be a new tool for the arsenal of means to different qualities within my pieces...


    I don't think of them as 'game changers'...just different toolsets.

    Thanks for the answer  Trimph.  I figured it would be a tool. What I am asking is how is it different from other EQs?. What will it offer that other EQs don't?

    I think that would depend on what sort of effect one wants. I know that I really do not have a specific one in mind myself..as all they really do is filter but I do find some filter a bit differently than others.

    Trimph thanks again for your answer.

    I just wonder with what CW has stated about the quad EQ if it could act like a Pultech EQ. This is due to my ignorance of the device but wonder if its really needed.

    To me an EQ is an EQ.  Or as years ago we used to call them a tone control. LOL

    In away I also slightly question the need for so many compressor modules. That is another thread perhaps.

    The new T type seems to be a useful module but I am not that sure about the others. I have them all but find little use for them. The limiter is a different story. I have abundant use for it.

    Just asking.

    Well, once you get the  pultec PC there won't be many more "classic" effects to PC.  The  fairchild is left, but not much else of the commonly copied eq/comps.  What will Cake do?  PC premaps put inline?

    24 And he turned back, and looked on them, and cursed them in the name of the Lord. And there came forth two she bears out of the wood, and tare forty and two children of them.

    Re:How About A PulTech Style PC Module? 2012/03/30 10:51:29 (permalink)
    This is due to my ignorance of the device but wonder if its really needed.

     
    Hi John,
     
    Can you get by without a Pultec style EQ?  Absolutely...
    But the Pultec has several strengths which makes it a great choice for specific tasks.
    It has a very "sweet" (not harsh) sounding high end.  Particular good when boosting highs (air for vocals, shimmer for cymbals)
    It has a nice "beefy" low end... great for fattening kick/etc.
    The selectable mid frequencies are great for adding articulation to: the snap of kick, the crack of snare, the mid articulation in vocals, etc.
    The Pultec is a simple design that works well in many circumstances... (also easy to use)

    Best Regards,

    Jim Roseberry
