10 EQ Plugins Loved By The Pros

We really like the stock EQ plugins that come with Pro Tools, as well as those in Izotope Ozone 6 (especially the dynamic EQ pictured below).

Here are some other excellent choices some well known mixers use…

What folks are saying

Magic Ears Mastering is where I send everyone looking for mastering services. Founder Adam Matza has an uncanny ear that really brings out the dynamics in your songs. They get it. They provide a great value and are easy to work with. Highly recommend these guys.

As a professional mixing engineer, I can always trust that Adam at Magic Ears is going to deliver a top-notch master for my clients. He works closely with me, letting me know, for example, that my kick drum is either too beefy or not beefy enough!

Love it! Well done!! I love that it has the nice, deep low end we put in the mix…sounds nice and loud without being compressed/limited to death.

Magic ears with magic gear! Adam’s exceptional musicality, meticulous attention to detail and impressive collection of analog mastering gear, make him my top choice for mastering any style of music. He’s dedicated to getting it just right and consistently delivers outstanding results. Highly recommended!

Working with Adam was not only more interactive than with any other mastering engineer I tried, but his advice showed years of irreplaceable experience. Patiently working through several revisions of my mixes (and I am a perfectionist), he patiently accommodated my personal preferences while adding his black magic on the mixes in a way that preserved my original vision. This was critical for me. Without over-coloring the tracks, he gave a palpable mojo to his masters worth every penny. I also found his rates more than competitive. I felt I got more from his masters than from previous engineers who charged as much and more than he did, and with less pleasing results. “Magic Ears” is a fitting moniker for his company. You really do feel like you’re paying for some sonic magic.

I recently worked with Adam Matza at Magic Ears Mastering and had a wonderful experience.

He was very sensitive to my thoughts and wishes, responsive in a timely manner and ultimately got me the end result I was happy with. When a mastering engineer cares about the artist and the music, it makes a world of difference.

Adam has been involved with a lot of different genres as a performer and vocalist so he knows how it feels to be on the artist’s side.

Having that experience makes him an understanding and empathetic mastering engineer. I was so pleased with the results that I brought my next project to him as well. Highly recommend giving Magic Ears a try!

Thank you Adam for the great work and professional treatment.

Long had I avoided getting my music professionally mastered. “It sounds fine,” I told myself. “Not worth it,” I thought.

But I was wrong. So, so wrong.

Adam Matza of Magic Ears Mastering brought things out in my recordings that were lost in distortion or buried within other frequencies.

Adam exhibits the highest standards of professionalism, understands what artists want and need and is extremely easy to work with.

I couldn’t be happier with the way my masters turned out, and I highly recommend him to other musicians.

Adam has done two projects for me – mastering a song, and also mastering a 40 minute audio book of poetry with music. In both cases he not only provided a clean, professional finished product, but he also assisted in the creation of the work when I had questions how to record and mix things professionally. Very recommended!
