    The "trick" is a fantastic subtle enhancement to bass, especially. I have found that prolonged use eventually creates a sort of feedback that utterly destroys during a mix down. The channel 'Rare' is on will overload making the VUs crank over to full. Short term it's fine, and OK to print like that. Any ideas? Solutions? Anyone else experience it?

    This plugin sounds good. Surprisingly so. While it lacks some of the flexibility of the SSL plugin, the EQ lets you select E mode for each of the two mid bells. The SSL plugin doesn't. And you cannot beat the price. Thanks for posting!

    @@Tarazonatunes You can search on the internet and on different KZread channels for the reason why analog obsession is trash, but remember to search in authoritative discussions. Here I'll write just a few points: First of all, the curves used are always the same in every plugin; Modeling analog behavior is difficult, and Analog Obsession releases too many plugins every month for them to be well modeled. There are entire threads where it's clear that Analog Obsession spends more time on the user interface than on the audio code since its plugins sound like the same distortion algorithms but with a different skin every time. The company also has a somewhat strange history. Including the owner who tried to sell the company a few years ago, including all the user interfaces and code. Also, where would you sample all those analog machines? If you are not satisfied with this answer, do a thorough search if you are not just a fanboy.

    Of course the free ones "sound better" because you're actively trimming the mud in the EQ, whereas in Quantum you regretfully do not really inspect the chain. I don't think you're a bad engineer or anything though, clearly you know what you're doing. Keep up the good work! I like your approach. Wavesfactory Quantum is more expensive than all of your discounted courses combined and for anyone even clicking on the video I think the better investment is the courses every time. In this industry, knowledge is power.

    The link points to a very different-looking plugin and the comments are ambiguous. Most there love it. But I've found some hard words spitted like a machine gun from some... Something that I am not considering valid because Analog Obsession uses to throw top-notch programs.
