What They Say

Is it live or is it UAD? I can't hear any difference. It's a bit scary how good this plug-in is.

The bottom-line to me is, the UAD Massive Passive sounds @#$%ing great! This is my new buss EQ.

    Manley Massive Passive EQ

    THIS PLUGINS IS THE BEST. I GENERALLY USE IT IN PARALLEL, ONE ON THE MIXBUS WITH A PRESET THAT I MADE AND ANOTHER ON THE MASTER WITH ANOTHER PRESET THAT I CREATED. AND THAT GIVES ME A HIGHER MIX RESOLUTION AND THE PERFECT MASTER.
