Must have plug ins for Recording? (pultec eq)

[Chewie5150]

Curious what are people's go to/must have third party plug ins for their DAWS. I'm a Cubase Artist 8 user. UAD has a deal right now on a few. One that caught my eye is the Pultec Passive Eq and I recall a thread some time ago discussing the passive EQs built in to the amp block of Axe Fx or other that could potentially achieve the same results.

I'm big UAD user and fan. Love their stuff. Note: you need UAD hardware to run their plugins in your DAW. UAD does not make any Native plugins.

The plugs I use all the time are UAD SSL Channel, UAD 1176 Comp, UAD LA2A Comp, UAD Pultec EQ, UAD Fairchild Comp, Waves H-Delay, Waves H-Reverb, Waves Renn EQ, Waves Renn Vox, Waves Renn Comp, Waves VEQ, Slate Virtual Tape, Slate FG/X Mastering processor, FabFilter ProQ2, Izotope Neutron

The UAD Pultec EQs are very nice.

The 1073 is also very good as are the API plugins

For native stuff there is jeroen breebaart's plugins that are very affordable, really really good, and criminally underrated: https://www.toneboosters.com/plugins.html

If I had more money I'd buy a couple of the Fab Filter plugins.
