Got to tell you this eq is amazing. The best way to describe it is that I hear more of the quality of the instrument in a given frequency range. It gives the mix more of a dimension from front to back kinda jumps out at you. I got blown away when boosting a mid fq to warm up an acoustic guitar. It was almost as if the guitar changed mic position to bring out the better tone.
Great investment.

Hey Ed, I was waiting to hear what you thought. I thought you might like the unit. I must say I've owned a lot of EQ's over the last 15 years and this one really makes an improvement with whatever you throw at it... even when I don't want to leave the digital side I always have to see what I can come up with on the REQ 2.2 and it's always an improvement.... smiles all the way with the Buzz.

One last thing, Tim went out of his way to send me a new REQ 2.2 as he had shielded a few things differently and got about a 10dB quieter noise floor than the demo unit that I had purchased. He didn't have to do this but it was the right thing to do, so he did it. This is what I love about the boutique guys, they usually go way "above and beyond" and Buzz is no different.
