Celebrating the arrival of the latest two EZX kits - Claustrophobic and Twisted - I decided to run a Spotlight special on the three first EZXs. Here it is, Drumkit From Hell, Vintage Rock and Latin Percussion, that should be something for everyone, right?

Now that we have featured fourteen EQs totally in our series of Spotlights on EQs, as well as reviewed two in conjunction with these Spotlights, I think we should wrap this baby up with sort of an “ultimate conclusion”.

You didn’t think we’d run an entire series of Spotlights on EQs without including those made by URS, right? The problem wasn’t if we would include them or not, but more like how many we would include. They have 10(!) EQs in their product line (not counting channel strips), and while we could make three additional Spotlights on EQs with only URS products, I don’t feel like that would be fair. So this is what I’ve done, shorter articles on the more “simple” EQs today, and a little longer articles on the two more “advanced” EQs in the upcoming part 4. OK?

Spotlight on EQs have been requested, so Spotlight on EQs is what you’ll get. There are so many out there so I’ve had to divide it into more than one part. I’m not sure yet on how many we’ll end up with, but there will be at least two, so keep your eyes open for Part 2, it will be posted in the next few days.

Welcome to the first Spotlight post! Here we will examine some different tape emulators on the market. Before you continue you should know I’m a digital guy and not an orthodox fanatic who will hate upon every tape emulator out there, in fact all presented here are pretty good!
