The Cambridge EQ can be your 'go-to' on all your channels safe in the knowledge that you won't run out of DSP power. This has long been a favourite amongst many mix engineers due to the small amount of DSP usage it requires. It's a 5-band parametric or shelving EQ with wonderful filters that have 17 (!) filter slopes including 2nd-6th order Butterworth and elliptical filters. The Cambridge EQ has been out since the start of UAD Powered Plug-ins and whilst the graphical interface could possibly do with a bit of a facelift, the sound is still very desirable.

In the same way a guitar would be used through a spring reverb amp, it's also great on drums or percussion.Ģ. The original hardware AKG BX 20 was invented in the 1960's and sounds very lush and moody - I find that running it as a plug-in on a track rather than using it as an FX send always gives more of a natural direct tone. We all have room and hall reverbs, plates and delays but a good spring can add some extra character and change of space. However, everything changed when UA released the BX 20! This was purely due to being unable to find a plug-in that could do a spring reverb real justice. Here are six of our favourite hidden gems.īefore UA released the AKG BX 20 Spring Reverb I used to reamp some of my old guitar amps to access their noisy old springs. They may be less expensive, but they're no less powerful. Many of Universal Audio's UAD powered plug-ins are very familiar - the likes of LA-2A, 1176, Pultec, SSL, Neve, Manley and their excellent tape emulations are amongst the most popular.Īs well as these well known names, there are many others that are also very useful - including some of the plug-ins included free when you purchase your interface.
