One of the more popular EQs on the Pro Tools market, the Massenburg DesignWorks MDW, has been updated to version 3. The man behind it is of course George Massenburg, the inventor of the original parametric EQ. The MDW has a very wide frequency setting ranging from 10 Hz to 41 kHz, with variable Q and choice of three- or five-band EQ.

The price is $795 for TDM/RTAS version, and $395 for RTAS version.

With the release of 2.2, MDW and Digidesign (which is the distributor) was faced by an angry mob of TDM users who felt that they should get the 2.2 RTAS version for free. With version 3, if you already own a previous version of MDW you can upgrade to version 3 for a lower price.
