solid, but stock is meta
not much to say, it's fine, and if you want a bit more detail out of your graph, this is solid, but i only ever use graphs as a reference, not a hard mixing tool, to maybe not my thing

Great visual aid. Sometimes when you're mixing something or equalizing, it comes in handy to have a tool like this to see what you are cutting of, or boosting.
