    I'll start by saying what (for me at least) the Maag EQ4 is not: it's not a serious editing tool. It's not going to make any problem frequencies magically resolve. The promo material and other reviews already emphasize that this isn't a surgical EQ, but even beyond that, I very rarely find myself dialing in drastic settings.
    So what this is, is a fantastic tool for changing good into great. A few minor changes with this EQ can be the difference between a stubborn sound taking up too much room, and a smooth fit. I make most of my music ITB, and I find that I get a lively presence on tracks with this EQ. Again, it rarely goes more than a few dB in either direction, and the change is subtle but vital - especially when it's on multiple tracks.
    Most reviews focus on the Air Band - and it's a great tool! In fact, it's probably the exception to the "subtlety" rule, as it can impart a nice sparkle without getting too harsh. But it's selling the EQ4 short to focus solely on that - it's ideal for shaping and smoothing at all its bands.
    The only feature I'd like to see would be automatic level compensation. Even small changes can change the overall gain considerably, and while the included trim control makes it easy enough to try and match levels, it'd be easier to have that process automated.

    I'm truly an idiot for waiting so long to pick this up. This is one of the most musical EQs I've ever heard and it's magic on anything it touches.
    Vocals are unreal, guitars are pristine, but what this does for snares is unlike any other EQ I have. SO GOOD!!

    i remember hearing the buzz, seeing reviews etc can it be that nice?....
    Honestly it is, a heavyweight champ.
    got it on sale or discounted, real quality, excellent resource to have, which is why it's in alot of processing chains.
    at the very least, get the trial

    EQ4 is straightforward, easy to use, it delivers that extra "touch" on vocals, drums, etc. I occasionally use it on my master bus to shift things a bit or maybe add some air in a "dull" mix. You simply dial in the freq and it responds. The initial price of $229 is very high for the purpose it serves but I managed to buy it with a great discount. I strongly recommend it - in the right price or if you can afford the initial price.
