Pultec EQ for ProChannel

I've held out buying a Pultec EQ emulator, in the hope that Cake would release a PC version.
 
NI are offering their Enhanced EQ with a discount voucher until the end of December. 
 
Has anyone tried this?  How does it compare to other Pultec emulations?

    It's very good. I like Nomad Factory's & Waves too.
    PSP has a Pultec style plugin called NobleQ which is cool too.

    No Pultec emu that I've tried has beaten this:

    Would be interested to hear your opinion after you've compared this with the others mentioned.

    Cheers,

    I have the Overtone PTC-2A as well.

    Picked it up when it was on sale a couple months ago after reading good reviews about it. 
    Very nice - not a wallet buster either.

    Thanks everyone for your replies.
     
    I'll try out the PTC-2A demo as well.
     
    Would have been nice to have a PC module version, but at least with the PC FX Chains it'll be easy to set one up.  Pity you are limited by the number of controls you can assign.
     
    Thanks again, and Happy Holidays..

    IK Multimedia have one too - called "vintage tube program equaliser"

    It's in the Tracks bundle - but you can buy it seperately too.
     
    It's good ;-)

    I've posted several times about adding a Pultec EQ to the ProChannel lineup but I guess it's not going to happen!

    Seems like every time someone mentions a Pultec emulation, Eddie TX and I chime in to sing the praises of the OverTone PTC-2A.  I love this EQ! Very three dimensional and "glassy" sounding!  Sorry of those terms sound off the wall but it's the best i can come up with t describe it.

    I also picked up the PSP NoblEQ and NoblEQex  which has an extra midrange section that lacks in the strict Pultec emulations. Less colored and more transparent than the PTC-2A but still very warm.

    Neither are wallet busters!

    Merry Christmas to all!  *<|:o)

    Peace!

    +1 - very good emulation that is either 32 or 64 bit and free.

    Thanks again for your replies.
     
    @ twoifbysea and phil67p - Have downloaded it and will give it a spin.
     
    @dlesaux - I remember your threads.  We've not heard of any new PC modules since PC2a, so who knows what's happening.  I was expecting a steady stream of modules, but perhaps they were busy with X2, or marketing decided it was not a productive income stream, who knows.
     
    I can't wait forever, though.  Demoing a few.  Just my luck I'll buy one and they'll release a PC one.
