Voxengo Marquis Compressor

I just bought Marquis and have to say it compares extremely favourably with my UAD plugins.

The full sound it manages at pretty small cpu load is a very nice addition to Voxengos catalogue and I look forward to more excellent plugs in the future!

I replaced my La-2a and 1176LN plugs in several projects and dialled in very similar (usually better) sounds with ease - even though this plug is very versatile it's pretty quick to use which is how a channel compressor should be IMHO.

Marquis raises the bar for native VST effects - well done Aleksey! - it's well thought-out, excellent sounding, simple to use and not a cpu hog.

Great work.

I cannot believe that Warmifier gives BBE Sonic Maximizer a run for the money.  I was fixated on BBE, but after using Warmifier, there is so much more control that the BBE SM doesn't have: current, voltage tube emulation as well as tube makes/types, LE and HE filter adjustments as well as LE And HE EQ'ing.  Just disgusting! (Don't fret: that's a good disgusting LOL)

Sometimes I have to admit it: I get confused to using Lampthruster and Warmifer, but Warmifer is the unexpected lovechild of Voxengo TubeAmp & Voxengo Sonic Finalizer in my eyes!  I assume that Warmifer is better for the mastering phase when used with Marq.  Compressor, Soniformer and Elephant.....as Lampthruster is good for colorizing tracks in congregation with Voxengo Crunchessor, Voxengo GlissEQ, and Elephant, correct?

Well, enough of my raving.  I'm going back to using this bad boy.  Using Warmifier with AFChorus and Crysonic's Spectra'PE 32-bit limiter is a deadly combo, yo.

Peace,

I thought I'd drop you a note just to say that I have no negative issues with the plugins.  I like using all the ones I have and love the sound.  I find them easy to use and understand.  The pricing seems very fair to me as well.  I also wanted to especially note the look of the plugs.  I prefer the straight forward layouts as opposed to very elaborate GUI's or emulations of "vintage" looking devices.
