I love SlickEQ. The automatic make up gain is invaluable and it's great for adding a little high shelf on vocals around 12k. Silky smooth.

[Dave_The_Beatmaker]

For me as a beginner I would start of with number 2 "MEqualizer", because of the visualization feature (which frequencies resemble which drum instrument). Later on I would switch to Nova, it looks cool and has a built-in compressor!

BTW I love your videos!

[benbirdsinging]

That Nova! It has also become my number 1. I had started experimenting with it before. Your tip that the thing is good to use for acoustic guitars is just right for me. In my tracks there are some nasty sounds in those higher regions. So a great tip, Thank you!

[JRYKRL]

Another winner!!!!
I can't thank you enough for the knowledge.
Soon as the world opens up and I can gig, I'll send ya some $$

[LuKe-iqom]

More than just a list of eq's. Very informative, thank you sir!

[DanielPestanaTranslations]

I’ll eventually upgrade my Tokyo Dawn Records plugins, because those guys deserve my support. Their plugins are amazing.

[KozmykJ]

Almost passed on thid vid.
Like "How useful could a bunch of freebie EQs be?"
But fair dooz, this is both useful and informative.
I hit Like 3 times ...

[ujjaljyotideka]

NOVA is the best Eq .
After i using this EQ i love the quality of this product.

[frankrenzoni]

That was not only a great comparison but was also very informative. Thanks for a great video

[Raees-Divitiae]

ABSOLUTELY FANTASTIC! I was splitting a jack into my main external audio card to the lines and usb from the other. The lines were obviously off, since windows doesn't give a crap about audio anymore. TY for the heads up on the 3rd party freeware, as I was about to have to purchase another external audio card. I may still scoop one up though, just as a failsafe. Stay safe, and thank you once again!

[thenarrator]

Oh man, thank you for the info. I've been spoiled by Neutron on android with by far the best para EQ customization I've found anywhere, now I can finally use my PC to get my music close to where I like it

[churumusik]

Wow!!! THANK YOU! all of them looks great but I will install the last two ones. All your videos are really really useful for me. I've learned a lot and I could improve my mixes quite a lot.

[danmaynard]

I came across Nova when watching your mastering video. I use it so much now! It destroys the cakewalk eq plugin (which always did my head in, rarely used it) but this Nova eq is brilliant!

[leekirkland.musician]

Thanks again...I must be careful here otherwise I will not work on anything, just wander the internet collecting free plugins like they are star wars stickers when I was a kid!

[LadyNicola]

Thanks I'm now using Blue Cat Audio - Triple EQ - Very easy to use

[RetroPlus]

TDR Nova is my favourite, really great functionality

[keyplayajim]

"...hit the Dislike button twice." ROTFLOL!

Another great video. Keep 'em coming!

[colbuhlemann]

Hey Mike, quick suggestion for ya. Free stuff is inherently awesome because, well, there's no financial stake in the product! But I wonder how these compare to paid plugins...what do you get for that extra $10, $50, or $200? I'd love to see some of that context in future videos. Great content as always!

[therealjackfisher]

Cheers Mike! Great video and a new list of free software. My top one free EQ is the one that is built in to Cakewalk by bandlab on the pro channel. That EQ is a seriously powerfull tool, and it dont use as much resource as a plugin EQ. Cakewalk with this pro channel is trully a unique and very powerful DAW.

[gabgarmon]

Totally amazing recomendations! Thank you!
