Yamaha seems to be really pushing their Neve incorporation. Every time I talk to my Yamaha guy, he keeps harping on all of their Neve emulations on the new PM10. I keep telling him that I'm not really interested in the Neve stuff and more interested in things like workflow, GUI, ease of automation and networking, and how big/heavy it is and whether it takes 2 guys to move the console or if I need to get 4.
I have the Neve EQ inserted across my main outputs as the 6 band EQ. But I wouldn't say it's something that I really pay alot of attention to or notice.
