Plugin tip: a great free EQ for kick / drumbus lows

There is one plugin I always pull out first when I feel the drum bus needs some low-freq help.

You may have seen I recommend and use the UAD Pultec EQ a lot for kick lows and drum buss lows. I understand not everyone wants to buy a UAD interface.
No fear, as there's a great free Pultec emulation by Ignite Amps.

And here it is and you can get it for free: PTEq-X.

I think this is well decent on kick/drumbus lows.
I always use it as my first choice when I feel the kick or the whole drum bus needs some meat. I've tried comparing it to a simple Pro-Q boost but it's not the same, I feel.

The middle module is for lows.

Set the CPS setting to 60 and CRANK the Boost knob!

Do try this on wimpy drumloops, too.
Once again tonight I was working on a nice lo-fi-ass dusty drumloop that needed some serious help with low warmth, so I pulled out the Pultec and compared it to PTEq-X again and felt it's good enough!

(compared to UAD Pultec, I feel you have to crank this more)
