Still getting used to this
Not particularly used to this layout but I can hear the difference once I put this on the track, will be using it more once I get the real hang of it.

Manley Massive Passive EQ
Awsum EQ. Very discreet and gentle. It's transparent but warm character make it ideal in either a mastering or corrective situation. Big time dsp usage but thats the trade off. Highly recommend this to be an item in anyones arsenal of cool EQ's. Their's nothing out there quite like it.

Lush Sounding EQ
High end sounds so musical! Love this EQ on the mix-bus. A subtle and detailed sounding eq that can really add something special to your mixes.

I can't really review it because your customer service guy gave me a full refund I never asked for
I cant really review it because your costomer service guy made a mistake bie giving me a full refund I never asked for for. I don't have this plugin anymore. but I can say I used the refund money and bought Waves plugins and Antares plugins. I guess I can say thanks to your customer service guy. You lost $300 dollars I payed for 2 plugins. then I bought some from waves and Antares Autotune. so maybe I should say thanks. :)

Sutil y efectivo
Luego de conocer la unidad en estudio y usar el modo de prueba en casa... 2 equalizadores bien diseñados para master o buses.
A considerar: Al igual que el hardware, no viene con matriz para MS ni valores numéricos de ref... también hay una leve pendiente ascendente desde los 3 kHz hacia los 20 kHz de hasta de un +1 dB que se pronuncia con niveles de entrada alta que no tiene el modelo de master.

GUI STILL TOO SMALL
They finally released an update(?) for 2020.
After YEARS of people requesting for a larger GUI...they updated what exactly?? What part of MASSIVE passive do you guys not understand? You'd think while modelling the hardware they might think "gee...this is a pretty big unit"
Meanwhile the Shadow Hills Comp is as big as the sun for no freakin reason...smh

Sometimes, all you need is something simple
This isn't like some sort of magic secret sauce that will automatically improve your project. But you probably already know that. I purchased this because I was looking for a mastering EQ that was simple to use. Mastering is new to me, and I'm still learning. But one thing I've learned is that less is more. There are other EQs that are more complex, and can achieve specialized tasks. I already have EQs for that. IME, this is great for making subtle, yet important, changes to your project so that you can wrap things up. I am used to using graphic EQs, but I've done OK with this by using Q3 first as a way to just "illustrate" the changes I'm making. I will go ahead and bypass Q3 though, because the massive passive just sounds better, even if I am making the same exact changes. I don't have a technical explanation for this, and it's hard to describe the difference in sound quality. It just sounds better.

Outstanding
must have if you want to have a clear mix

It was all worth it
This was the reason I picked up a UAD rig in the first place. For a fraction of the cost, what did I have to lose? This thing delivered and delivered well. I'm so happy with it.

I wasn't going to buy this...
I was NOT going to buy another plug-in. Heaven knows, I've got enough, and they sound wonderful. But then I tried it... I was only going to try it out. OMG!! Suddenly I had a whole new recording system. I bought it after the first take on the first track. This is hands down the best EQ for acapella vocals.
