+1 on that. I too find it a bit hard, almost like ... dunno ... nasal.

And as for the post above mine .. if you're looking for a general usage EQ, tracking EQ, the difference between EQ isn't that dramatic. There was even a thread here not too long ago that claimed that you can emulate the effect of every EQ, with another EQ, most EQs in fact, no matter what price or pedigree. Regardless if it's true or not, it's still a very relevant point. The functionality, flexibility and how immediatly comfortable you find yourself with an EQ, is still just as important. I've tested myself many times, using different EQs and adjusting the same track with them. You'd be surprised to know how much the GUI controls how you tweak your EQ, and I tried very much to let my ears guide me. But my ajustments were different from EQ to EQ and I think most of that was because of how the GUI made me hear things I really didn't hear etc
