…honestly feel that EQ’s are more complex/superfluous than an HPF!
What’s the main thing people do with an EQ on a mixer? I’d say its to roll-off the bass, + maybe some mids to accommodate the bottom end of the incoming track. That’s EXACTLY what the HPF does, only using one knob as opposed to 3 (or 4). Obviously all HPF’s are not the same, but the MasterSounds like the V6 before it (and the MP2015 with the resonance setting right down) all have filters that are optimised for that exact purpose.
That all said though, I only really use the filter subtractively, so if you are wildly pushing frequencies for dramatic effect, maybe those are better for you. As Hannu suggests, horses for courses and entirely dependent on mixing technique.
