I was thinking to not re-wup but it looks like this may be reason to. My WUP exp'd one month ago.
 
WUP=$215 at AD which pretty much pays for that stuff.




same boat here ....think it's time for us ....will try it to be sure ...but looks like we can also expect Api uapdte stuff then and on and on .....i hope they not recycled drive stuff from Red and other stuff .... i will have to check

Seems a bit strange as they already have a 1073 emulation to bring out another new one rather than an update.
But I guess revenue and new interest is what they are after.


 
Yes, it seems funny since they already have the V-series, but if this new one is in the same league as the RS56, which IMHO was a quantum leap ahead of any other Waves EQ and as good as anything else out there, I'd say a brand-new model is justified.

Totally different beast.
This is Scheps emu (plus whomever worked on it, not sure exactly) with his / their design & features.
 
IMO it's comparable to both REDD & RS56.

About $85 at the usual discounters (Audio Deluxe, Plugin Discounts, etc). 
 
Looks like a faithful emulation of the standard 1073 (with the addition of the 10kHz midband), not a model of some modified unit.  The Scheps name is on it since he was involved in the development. 
 
The preamp section sets this apart from most other emus out there, like UAD's.  Now for some demoing.  :-)

Let me know what you think.
I'm using it instead of PSP's Neve emu I have in projects & replacing others. I put it on par with RS56 which I also like & use quite a bit.
 
I stopped using Nebula altogether, although the quality is usually better I can't cope with the workflow. The quality's getting better with the majority of newer plugin releases too.

Yay, all four of my Waves products have been WUP until June 27, 2015.
 
Now to go get the latest updates including these two.

Now I only have to wait for the 50% off sale on the J37

The J37 is great, you won't be disapointed.

After trying it out on several sources including drums and guitars, I have to say that Waves has the best 1073 emu I've heard outside Nebula.  To me, it edged out UAD and put the old VEQ3 to shame.  HOWEVER, I'm spoiled by the Nebula sound, so unless I get tired of using that, I'll keep my AlexB emulations in my projects (his API 550A is my current go-to for this style of EQ).  I still may pick up the Scheps when it inevitably goes on sale.
 
I still use RS56 a lot, and it seems Waves have matched its quality and ease-of-use with this new one.  Nice job, Waves.

Well, I have Kramer Tape (included in Mercury), Magnetic I & II, UAD Studer, Slate VTM, Ferric TDS and probably a few more I cannot think of right now.
 
What (besides vanity and namesake history) does the J37 do that any of these others don't?
