Voxengo Crunchessor

I love all my Voxengo plugins.  My mastering chain is basically Crunchessor->CurveEQ->Elephant and the results are great.  Crunchessor also gets a lot of use when tracking since it can give a wide range of colors to my tracks.

I will definitely get some more stuff from Aleksey in the future.

Crunchessor - good for drums and percussions.  Fixed ratio, “style” selector - suitable for adjusting the sound for any genre and character.

Deft compressor - good for other track types.  Punch knob - excellent for transients/attack management

Marquis compressor - good as SSL analog for gluing groups (variable soft mode of amplifier - pleasant to the ear).

I recommend all three compressors at once for purchase.

It's pretty simple why Voxengo plugins are so good - Alexsey has a better ear compared to other developers.

His plugins sound so 'musical'.  I've used many other plugins that technically perform their designed function, yet somehow just don't sound good.

I now have a whole set of expensive plugins that are just taking up drive space.  They simply don't sound as good as thier Voxengo counterparts.
