    Any recommendations for an awesome and amazing Manley Passive EQ VST other than UAD?

    Something that can be used for Mastering?

    Native Instrument's Passive EQ, SPL PassEQ, Elysia Musseq all sound amazing in my opinion although not a 100% clone.

  5. I'd avoid the NI/Softube emulation, it's a good EQ but it slaps a ridiculous amount of harmonics on signal, even wih all the bands switched off. A good EQ but nothing like a Manley. SPL - to die for. Acustica Acqua CORAL is very luscious. But if you want the real mazooma, it's UAD.
