[QUOTE="capetownwatches, post: 866354, member: 19576"] SW Ref 4 offers three filters: zero latency (introduces phase shift), optimum (medium latency, inaudible phase shift) and linear (hi latency, no phase shift). I generally don't go above 50% wet. I use EQ only for those recordings I feel really need it, i.e. as little as possible. Personally I prefer zero latency most times because to my ears it's the cleanest and most detailed for dense, low DR Metal. And that's what I EQ most times. Linear to my ears seems to roll off the highs a tad, with resultant slight loss of depth and detail. Optimum is actually the best compromise for easy listening, again YMMV. Best of all though is a great production that allows your headphones to shine without any EQ at all. [/QUOTE]
