There is a hefty amount of info out there that suggests that it is much more valuable to cut not boost... some patches on the virus, though, have one of the EQ gain knobs at 11, and for that matter, many of the EQ presents in Logic's graphic EQ have massive boosts with wide Qs all over the place... Does anyone else adhere strictly to the cut vs boost rule of thumb or are there circumstances where massive boosts are warranted and hence included as presents professional gear?


Also, do you guys use the virus EQ to mix your stuff? i.e. do you perfect the EQ settings of your patch in the virus so that no further EQ is needed, or do you bounce things down and rely more on an EQ in your DAW?

Anyone know of any resources/good tips about using the virus style parametric EQ for mixing?

thanks!
