Prepare for a slight boost (~1dB) at about 400Hz on every emulation.

Forget the PYE 84, especially for a kick drum. It shows an lower cutoff frequency at about 150Hz, which is equal to a lowcutat 150Hz. I don't know many instruments that need to be cut so high.

Watch your headroom. I compared the UAD to the liquidmix.
One main difference is, that the UAD shows much less distortion on
compareable emulations (1176LN, LA2A). That means: Don't drive the
liquid mix to hot, except you want much distortion.

For more unpleasent details (especially regarding the EQs) about the liquid mix look at my small measurement-paper: LiquidMixBugs.pdf ... at uploaded.to - Free File Hosting, Free Image Hosting, Free Music Hosting, Free Video Hosting, ...
