Main Buzz Overview of ZL Equalizer 2 EQ VST
Yes! This is most possibly the most advanced free-to-use EQ VST plugin!
The only thing we would like to point out here at ProducersBuzz after downloading and trying ZL Equalizer 2 is the fact that we spent a few minutes trying to figure out how to draw EQ bands on the visualizer itself; it’s a simple “double right-mouse click”. It would be great if there was more info on this, as it can be quite confusing to start off with.
One feature we love about ZL Equalizer 2 VST is the fact that each EQ band point can be soloed, making it 100x faster and easier to moderate separate EQ frequency bands. This is a great feature for professional and advanced mixing and mastering purposes. Check it out below; we have highlighted this feature in red.
Also, it’s very cool how this feature adds greyscale to all other bands and mutes them at the same time; this feature provides very high precision during any mastering session.
Apart from that, this is a highly versatile EQ mixing and mastering VST plugin and well worth downloading and trying out!
