Any Voxengo users out there?
Sorry if this is the wrong place James but I see others post here regarding plug in deals. I just checked out this new Voxengo plug in, http://www.voxengo.com/product/voxformer/, called Voxformer. It's actually a really amazing channel strip regardless of the very cheap price and includes an eq (with spectrum analyzer), 2 compressors, desser, etc. You can read all about it. Anyway, I was curious so downloaded it. It has a presence know that seemed to add a "magic" sheen to the top end. If the de esser works better than my waves or UA stuff then I'm in.

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I've bought a few of the Voxengo plugins and like them. Good prices, too!
He's also very active in his forums and seems to respond quickly regarding any bugs or questions.
I tried the Voxformer 2 demo, and like it - even if it's intended as a vocal channel strip, it seems to be useful for many other things.
One of the other things I like about all the new revisions of the plugins, aside from getting ported to Mac, is that he's adding M/S capabilities, for which I've been getting interested.

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I like the bass enhancer, LF Max Punch, which was also recently ported to the Mac. Aleksey really seems to be a good dev; knows his stuff. The Marquis compressor gets a lot of love on other forums, so I'm looking forward to that one coming our way...

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I was curious about the lack of Mac version but from you're saying he's working on it? I'd like to hear the tape saturation plugin.tremolounge wrote:I like the bass enhancer, LF Max Punch, which was also recently ported to the Mac.

"The TapeBus plug-in recreates characteristic elements of the reel-to-reel tape sound. This includes saturation, modulation noise and smearing effects which are known for the 'analog' feel they bring to any audio recording. This plug-in also applies a selected impulse response taken by us from the existing tape machine."

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I think Voxengo plug-ins sound good, but I really have to give a thumbs-down on their
GUI's, which have that Ableton Live "cheap toy" look.

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I was a little put off by the GUIs at first, but they grow on you, and the info is presented in a very legible way.

Re: Any Voxengo users out there?
I have to disagree with you about the GUIs.. I quite like them, especially the very smooth level meters.... I remember using the crunchesser on this guys vocals once and we all just enjoyed watching it working away.
