Electronic Musician, April 2009
"I threw the TG12414 on a rock drum track, and as soon as I cranked the presence to +10 dB at 6.5 kHz, the snare started sounding very Ringo-esque... I went to a few master mixes from my 'Under the Big Tree' album, mixed on modest gear a decade ago. As soon as I started playing with TG12412, I wanted to go back and remaster the whole record. The plug-in smoothed the highs, punched up the lows, and cleaned up the low mids effortlessly"
Future Music, February 2009
"...the 12412 is wonderful. It can add shimmer and sheen to a mix without excessive colouration and its effect never becomes unnatural, even at more extreme settings... among the warmest EQs you'll find. Both for in-channel use and over your master output mix, the TG Mastering Pack is thoroughly recommended."
Audio Media, November 2008
"[TG12412] is a very musical sounding EQ that can boost without any of the more common digital EQ problems of harshness. A very smooth push from top to bottom with lovely enhancement to the bass, whilst adding a particular sweetness to the top. With 18dB/octave rolloff [TG12414] is more of a strong tone shaper than its smoother big brother. Both have that classic quality and 60s Beatles sound about them."
Sound On Sound, August 2008
"It almost goes without saying that both of these EQ plug-ins sound great. TG 12412 is like the proverbial 'make it sound better' processor, with an effortless sound that invites adjectives such as 'smooth', 'silky' and 'warm'. I can't recommend TG 12412 highly enough: it's one of the most musical plug-in equalisers I've heard, and its uses go far beyond mastering."
Resolution, October 2007
"Surprisingly flexible...the EQ has an openness, subtlety and honesty...It sounds very sweet. The frequency choices are excellent."
DigiZine, August 2007
“…these EQs are great for mastering, but they’re also terrific on drum busses and other complex material. The TG12412 is particularly adept at adding low-end mass while unclogging constipated mids, while the TG12414 excels at adding bite and sparkle.”
MacUser, March 2007
“…there are enough tone-shaping options on board to carve out space for any sound. The net result is a very musical EQ, with a buttery smooth quality to the sound. Equally adept at livening up or brightening a dense mix as adding a little extra sparkle and shine...a very useful secret weapon to have in your arsenal”
