@MusikHack 's Sweet EQ keeps things simple — but sounds anything but simple!
This “saturating EQ” is designed for fast, musical tone shaping with richer lows, more punch, added presence, and smooth top-end sparkle — all without the usual plugin complexity. A powerful sweetener for vocals, drums, synths, and full mixes alike.

Simon P. from Norwich was the winner of the 40th Anniversary competition and won a full studio bundle consisting of many prizes.
"It was a bit of a shock to hear I'd won this competition - I've literally never won this kind of thing before. This incredible spread of hardware and software will be a game changer for the projects I'll be working on. I had a decent but limited home studio set up, so this win has opened up new possibilities and textures to play with that I wouldn't have been able to get anytime soon. A huge thank you to all of the companies for their generosity and for Sound On Sound for making it happen"
Congrats again Simon and thanks to @ADAM_Audio@AIAIAItweet@ALLEN & HEATH @Bitwig@Blackbt@CAD Audio @Cranborne_Audio@DPAmicrophones@EastWestSounds@WeAreFocusrite Fostex @Harrison Audio @ikmultimedia@KRK_Music_@Native Instruments @WeAreNovation@RolandGlobal
