MP-EQ
Pulsar MP-EQ is an emulation of a legendary analog EQ that is trusted by the best mixing and mastering engineers in the world. This Pultec-style passive EQ embeds a parallel topology with no cumulative tonal correction, resulting in a more intuitive and fluid way of shaping the frequency spectrum. Pulsar MP-EQ is the perfect tool to add sparkle and heft to your mix. For instance, it’s often used to add power to the low end (47 or 68 Hz) while retaining dynamic separation and balance between kick and bass, or to add air (16 kHz high-shelf) without any harshness. This EQ is also mind-blowing when used in Mid/Side mode, for perfect control over the stereo scene.
VM-COMP
With Pulsar VM-COMP, you get the market’s most accurate emulation of an iconic all-tube compressor, a staple in mastering studios globally. Often employed as a glue compressor, it’s the go-to tool on audio busses to add cohesion to the sound. It allows for gentle, musical transient shaping, even at extreme settings, and provides complete dynamic range control with its sidechain, lookahead/behind options, M/S mode, and contemporary graphics.
8200
Precise & versatile, Pulsar 8200 holds a key role in your master bus. It offers clinical precision when you want to open up the side and focus the center of your mix. The tilt feature allows you to effortlessly adjust the tonal balance of your mix. You can easily create complex EQ curves that can take your mixes and masters from slightly corrected to noticeably polished. It faithfully recreates the Class-A analog circuitry that made the GML 8200 a staple in the 80s. Its parallel topology and unique filters offer smooth, natural curves, preserving the analog warmth and character.
W495
Transparent and musical, the w495 is an easy-to-use mastering equalizer, with just three bands to consider, for faster mix balancing. It has the ability to broaden the whole sound stage without ever being too harsh, even at extreme settings.

“As a one time owner of the hardware, the 8200 is a brilliant model of that legendary EQ. And.. with the added features of the plugin, It’s an absolute no-brainer. It is one of those plugins that you absolutely must have after listening to it for all of 30 seconds.”

“Pulsar MP-EQ got a great tone and it’s become a favorite for being the last thing I put on to get an instrument to pop thru. Being a longtime Massive user, that the boost/ cut is a traditional plus-minus as opposed to a full throw live on the hardware or the UAD. I also find it interesting that the Q curves are so gentle. Definitely a new favorite.”

“Slower releases are an important part of mixbus processing for me. And the Pulsar VM-COMP reacts beautifully at the slowest releases while handling complex materials. Oh and also, it is the one I use on bass – with a special setting – if I feel the bass doesn’t stand out consistently enough.”

“It reminds me so much of the W495STB I used to have, which sadly constantly broke and was a bitch when It came to headroom 🙂 I love this EQ! Thank you for bringing a sound back to me I was missing <3 ”
