The deal
$54 at Pluginfox (down from $99), 45% off. No coupon needed. Sale runs through August 20, 2026.
What it is
MBEQ is a graphic equalizer plugin built on Metric Halo's channel strip design and sampled circuitry from Make Believe's vintage Pye-tvt console, a BBC OEM design from the 1960s. In its default mode it behaves like a modern, transparent EQ. Switch on "Sauce" mode and it takes on the big, colored tone of that vintage British console.
Who it's for
Mixing and mastering engineers who want the option to switch between clean, modern equalization and vintage console coloration in one plugin. Works equally well for producers who like dragging nodes on a visual curve and engineers who prefer keyboard-driven, instrument-like control.
