Maybe I need to be 20 years younger, my old ears just aren't hearing much of a change no matter which Maselec preset I select. Some don't seem to affect the sound at all. Probably me.
At any rate, I have your Quantec plugin and love it. This one is a pass for me.
Hi Dave - I take it you're referring to the MEA-2?
Massive Passive is great - and if you're happy with that, then that is awesome. Often the MP and the MEA-2 would be used back to back in mastering. MP for color and MEA-2 final sheen without messing with any additional color.
As for the MLA-4, that's multiband comp/expansion.
