Review: Waves GEQ Graphic Equalizer Plug-In - Church Production Magazine

churchproduction.com

The Waves GEQ Graphic Equalizer Plug-In may not be the flashiest tool in the audio world, but it delivers robust performance that's indispensable for daily use. With its intuitive "classic" and "modern" modes, it caters to both traditionalists and those seeking precision tuning. The standout real-time frequency analyzer simplifies complex EQ tasks, making it especially useful in live environments where speed is crucial. The plug-in's ability to maintain phase coherence is a significant advantage over many built-in console EQs, which often introduce unwanted artifacts. While it lacks the allure of creative effects like tape emulators, the Waves GEQ excels in being a reliable, professional-grade EQ solution that enhances sound quality without the usual pitfalls of digital processing.
