Linear Phase Without Compromise
Many mastering engineers, including MAAT founder Friedemann Tischmeyer, were fans of Algorithmix’s legendary original Linear Phase PEQ Orange. Unfortunately, the Algorithmix EQs were available only as 32 bit VSTs for PC and our workstations and our industry has evolved since then. Tischmeyer’s students repeatedly asked for alternatives, which caused him to scan the market for other high class EQs. Colleague Bob Katz recommended EQuilibrium, an insanely versatile tool, which Tischmeyer used for teaching. However, he could not find a satisfying alternative which would take the place of his original PEQ Orange.

The idea was born to reissue this masterpiece and make it available as 64 bit in all common formats and for macOS. An agreement with Algorithmix was made, and MAAT started up in mid–2017. Algorithmix fans heard of that and reached out to us, saying “…just redo it as it is; no extras, no nothing. We just want to have it back in 64 bit and for Mac.” That was encouraging. As a power user, Tischmeyer had some other ideas in mind regarding the UI. He wanted to make it more flexible and faster to use because there is no other tool in the mastering chain an engineer spends so much setup time with. The result? “I think we have achieved that. The UI allows super fast setup and has a number of unique features which help to do so: The positive & negative Contribution function including absolute difference, the adjustable sonogram which makes detecting energy spots you want to clean up easy, and the possibility to play a note on the piano you have in your head and just push the respective frequency to the active band section with one right click are just a few of the new features. What I like too is that I have an overview of all Sections as opposed to just one Section at a time.” In order to not end up with a strange Section order when using many filters, we also added the SORT button so your Sections are always in ascending order.

Massenburg MDWEQ, v6 now
Sequoia EQ116
Pyramix EQ

Are they shitty as any simple overhyped plugins from early 2000s? What's their advantages over listed above? All those recording standards became outdated imho. With plugins, reaper and RX i can do almost everything. What new may sequoia, pyramix, pro tools offer? Time saving - not for me. Workflow - reaper/vst/rx enough.

About Sequoia or Pyramix, I was not writing about something " new " here but about the renowned quality of their EQs, which is the topic here.

So if you like Reaper, use Reaper, maybe it's more fun as " my " tools.
I'll go on anyway with Sequoia and Pyramix as my all-time heroes in this domain and the people I have / am working with are using them each day. I trust them: they have proven through the years (decennies), and to this day in this (dead) business, to have outstanding "golden ears ".

As for George Massenburg, as also mentioned, he is, simply put : a Jedi. Among other things to insert in his biography, not only did he invent the parametric EQ, but he has built the very best of them, the GML 9500 ( "Mastering Equalizer" ).
Bob Ludwig also uses the MDWEQ when mastering digital and this is enough credits as I need.

Gives unprecedented transparency, but I found out that the best result you get using TBProAudio DSEQ 1.0.7 after it.

quote by FinalMaster... unprecedented transparency....

There is nothing as such " unprecedented " here, not even the huge ego of Friedemann Tischmeyer.
