I haven't found an impulse I liked yet. They all sound bad to me after a little while.


i kinda liked studer 1+db with the chaintech, made mine sound a lot warmer. then when i moved up to the emu, it already sounded so sweet i didnt feel a need for the plugin any longer!

did you try adjusting level adjust? i had mine at -1.7db, going higher resulted in distortion in lower frequencies.

I did use the studer for a while but tired of it. I'd like to make my own someday.

using an equalizer is much like added additional spice to fine dish. a lot of people will argue that you shouldn't spice up your food and instead eat it as the chef meant for it to eaten.

bah! that's why we all have our own taste and a lot of people like to add some salt or pepper.

to that end, i don't use an equalizer all that much but i'm using one in my current to boost the low end since the bass response on my Grado SR325's is a little weak.
in the end, its all a matter of preference/taste.

YUP, and I rather enjoy the Stock FooBar eq, you all say it's TERRIBLE... I say my EDM doesn't really care 
 
but I am 100% against eq for everything that isn't eq! :D It's what makes collecting headphones fun! If I could eq my dt 880s to do EVERYTHING then I'd no longer have any reason to buy ore cans q.q. Plus Hardware coloration and software coloration [eq] are imo very different. Like the differeance between butter and margin, Yea they KIND have a simmilar ish flavor BUT the texture and mouth feel are COMPLETEY different, eq mids and RUNNING A TUBE for mids for example 
 
eq=Margin [GO TO HELL NOT BUTTER]
tube= BUTTER
 
still for techno I could care less, I'll use the eq and it sounds fine to me
