Can anyone recommend a good VST Equalizer for Sonar Plat?
 
The provided ones, including proChannel, have far more artifacts that I would expect. I'd prefer an EQ with a spectrum analyzer to help me stay oriented, but it's not critical.
 
Thanks in advance for any suggestions

If you want a REALLY nice EQ for little money,
you can get Bx_Digital 2 for $99 right how...
https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products/bx_digital_v2.html

Add the SPL Attacker for $9 and the price drops to $86.40...which
is like getting Attacker free and still saving $13...

One of the best EQ's out there is Fabfilter Pro Q2...but pricey at $199...
unless you already own FF plugs..then the price is adjusted based on
what you own...

There are a LOT of good EQ's...

Here's a boatload of FREEBIES you can try to see if any are to your liking

MAutodynamicEQ by Melda Productions is quickly becoming my favorite. It will come up for 50% off at some point.

MAutoDynamicEQ is a beast...not for the faint of heart...it has everything AND the kitchen sink...

Here's a look at Bx_Digital...quite the buy at the $99 price

What kind of artifacts are you getting with the ProChannel stuff?  Just curious.
 

I was also wondering about these artifacts. Also, doesn't the QCurveEQ have a spectrum analyser?

You can get the Free Bundle from Melda which contains the MEqualizer:

The T-RackS Classic EQ is free also:  http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/trclasseq/
 
I've never experienced artifacts with the QuadCurve EQ, but it does add color based on which mode you select.  The Nomad Factory Blue Tubes bundle also has several EQ's that are emulations of famous hardware.  For a parametric EQ, is Sonitus EQ included with Platinum?

Yes, it has a fly out analyzer.  I have never heard any type of artifacts from the EQ's.  In my opinion, they are quite good.
