In this video I review the new Maselec MEA-2 plugin emulation by Relab Development. This is by far one of the closest emulations I have ever heard. I have been using this plugin myself in mixing sessions for the past 3 months and when using the Avid S4 controller it feels as if I am working on my Maselec hardware. Unbelievably good plugin.
