Months ago, this Pulse-Tec eq was an absolute steal at Don't Crack, so I grabbed it.

Waves and IK also have emulations of this famed module, but there's a whole pack of Nomad Factory EQ's in Sonar that don't get enough appreciation, like the bundled PEQ2B and the PEQ5B.  If you haven't considered a Blue Tubes plugin lately, give 'em a go.
 
With the Pulse-Tec, just flipping the switch adds some sweet color.

another +1. It was $9.99 about a year ago and I don't tink too many passed on it. And I agree the Blue Tubes that come with Sonar are better than they get credit for.

There's a general tendency to regard plugins that come with a DAW as in some way inferior. Sometimes that's true - e.g. Logic's compressors are OK, the eq works OK, but most of the other plugins, especially in the "effects" categories, aren't exactly brilliant.

The bundled plugs with Sonar Plat. though are uniformly good. I can work with Plat using just the Cake provided stuff, only need to add third party stuff for a different "colour".

With Alloy2, Ozone7 advanced, Native Instruments K10U, Slate VMR and VTM, SoundToys, IK T-Racks, EZmix2, Overloud VKFX and separates from PSP, Nomad, Klanghelm, d16, Hornet and OvertoneDSP, I should be set. Or is something missing? Gasssssssss

Bingo.  That's the steal to which I refer:)

Nope, Mike. Don't want these Dutchies in ma house. As long as I can keep FabFilter at bay, I know the Devil of Gas won't get my soul.

As I tried to improve my skills and increase my knowledge, I watched a lot of YouTube tutorials.  So many of the techniques were demo'd on plugins I didn't have in Sonar.  As I've said before, it's taken me time and money to discover what works for me and which plugins I like.  I guess the downside to this digital domain is having so many possibilities a mouse-click and credit card number away.  But, that Pulse-Tec for $10 was worth it.

I picked up Waves PuigTec version ($79 vs stupid $299 list). Not nearly as good of a deal, but sweet-sounding EQs nonetheless.
 
I'm just wondering if there's anyone out there with BOTH and can offer feedback on the differences.
