BootEQ mkIII
System :
Win32
Win64
Format :
VST
The BootEQ mkIII is an equalizer and pre-amp simulator combination which provides some nice and musical signal coloration effects.
- Utilize the pre-amp’s LF boost in combination with the EQ’s low-cut to obtain consistent low-end.
- Tune MF and LF on (nearly) same frequency to boost and cut the same time (push/pull style effects).

This EQ is insanely good for mastering. If you got a muddy mix this brings out exactly what you need with a little tube style saturation giving the perfect last touch.

It's one of my go-to coloring EQs. Like other Variety of Sound plugins it's worth downloading!

I use this EQ almost without fail on Bass guitar for the lovely round low end boost. If you want your Bass to own the bottom, try this!! (start with LF treatment in thge drop down menu then Tube Pre and Vintage on, then tweak to suit

A classic of free accessories. One gets into the role of "engineer" using plug-ins that are so solid and serious in their appearance and operation.

This EQ works pretty well on electric P bass guitar. Thanks to the drive knob and the extra control for low end. Recommendation!

Just had to reinstall Win 10 and JRiver Mediacentre. It sounded flat and lifeless, realised that BootEQ was missing... What a difference this VST makes. As somebody already said, I'd happily pay for this product. It is superb.

I record a lot of acoustic and bluegrass and I use this plug-in on the master buss to get a nice, warm analog tone.

I use it with OceanAudio, works GREAT... but with Magix Samplitude Pro X-2 it crashes every time. I've reinstalled both BootEQ and Pro X-2 and I keep getting the same results.

Good EQ but I find it cumbersome to use for some reason. Maybe the layout just doesn't click with me.

I've had this for years, but never used it. I had a problem track and was trying everything to save. One by one I used every gizmo I had. Then I said what the hell let's give BootEQ a try. Should have started here! I now use it everywhere... love it. Keep this one in your bag of TRICKS!

Found this very easy to use and get what sounds I wanted. Effective controls despite silly "glowing tube"! All the Variety of Sound plugs have been winners in my book.

Yes it does. I'm currently looking at multiple instances of it inside Reaper 64 on Windows 10/64. It works perfectly.

I often use it, work well in many situations. Sure one of the best Free EQs.

Nice musical equalizer that can be used as a track insert and on the mix-buss to boost clarity and depth. However, the Drive control appears to do nothing.

The best EQ I've ever used. When combined with FerricTDS it can really glue the mix together. It's subtle unless you push it really hard. You also need to have the preamp switch on. It doesn't act like a volume control, it simulates turning up/down the input of an amplifier while turning down/up the output to compensate.
