Voxengo Crunchessor

Add me to the chorus of people singing praises about Voxengo software.  I've just recently started getting into computer audio recording (Cubase 4 on an Intel Mac), and was looking for some improvement over the stock plug-ins.  I downloaded a couple of the free Voxengo plug-ins (the Tube Amp and Overtone GEQ), and based on that, will be purchasing some others now.

Echoing what others have said, the Voxengo plug-ins sound musical (what a concept!) and are reasonably priced.  It's obvious the person who designed them has a discriminating and musical ear.  I was able to make some immediate improvements to a couple tracks with the free plug-ins.  I almost feel like I'm using analog gear, due to the warm, musical tone of this software.  Great job!  I also appreciate the modular concept of the plug-ins, how they all share a number of common parameters, which makes it easier to switch from one to the next.

The Voxengo website is well organized, making it easy to get information on the software.  It's also clear that the software is updated regularly to fix any issues that come up. (Wouldn't it be nice if all software companies did this?)

I don't write too many testimonials, but when someone does something right, it should be recognized, and Aleksey Vaneev has done just that.  Thank you for designing this software, and making it available to the public.

This compressor is so good, so easy to use, so forgiving even at higher levels of gain reduction.  It's become my go to compressor while tracking.  And the subtle saturation when it's pushed is sooo good!  Most times I don't even think to change the attack and release settings.  I also have the Marquis Compressor which might be more versatile (maybe, but Crunchessor is already so versatile), but this one's so easy to dial in.

I wanted to reply and let you know how much I enjoy using your products.  I run a small, professional studio in San Diego, CA and own a large plug-in library.  Voxengo products hold their own against their Waves counterparts and are always a part of the process here.  Keep up the great work, it is sincerely special in an industry inundated with garbage.

Sincerely,
