Free.

22 VST's in the bundle.

Waves H-EQ is pretty cool.

Just did that yesterday.   Partly due to your mentioning this just a few times recently.  
 
Are you using the latest versions?   I upgraded from 5.x to 7.07 after the purchase, but I'm finding that the labels are really dificult to read now.  Not sure if I should downgrade...    And sorry for the OT.  Though as you said it does include an analyzer overlay.

Yep, I'm using 7.07. I haven't seen any difference in the GUI. Hmm.


I did a complete uninstall of the old version first though.



I don't work for them by the way, I just think they have a fantastic product. Maybe I should hit them up for a kickback.

For the first time ... ever ... I just did a project to where I didn't have to master it other than a bit of limiting. No EQ, compression, expander, ... zilch on the Master.

Not that I'm some big time producer ... I'm just a heavy home based user/hobbyist. Having that analyzer right there on the EQ makes a world of difference for a guy like me that doesn't have the optimum listening environment.

An analyzer comes with the free bundle as well Keni if you just want an analyzer. I turned on all the eye candy on this screen shot, but you can customize it any way you'd like.

Last screenshot, I promise.

This is what the Sonogram looks like Keni. It's a lot nicer than the one in the Cake Analyst. Unfortunately, as you can tell from the screenshot, I won't be seeing it in 4 days after the demo runs out. :(

The sonogram is also available in the licensed version of MAnalyzer and MEqualizer. So you will still be able to see the sonogram in those tools after MDynamicEq expires.

the eq in the g3 vids was the stock eq that comes with logic pro, iirc.  
i would definitely not trust the cakewalk analyst as it does not accurately represent low frequencies... here's a screenshot of a track with a 96db/octave hpf applied to a track and the difference between cake's analyst and blue cat's.... pretty striking.

+1 to bringing up this topic

I'd also like to get access to a better analyzer. Cakewalk analyst seems somehow unreliable as I have also noticed the low frequency display being off after applying HPF

TrackS comes with a similar small analyst, but does not seem to have that particular LF problem. however, display options just don't exist.

I'd even be happy to spend some money on a decent analyzer which comes with a sonogram. somebody recommended the pinguin analyzer which supposedly is very accurate but the basic version sells for 700+ EUR which is a bit steep ...

any other recommendation with a good price-value ratio would be welcome!
