Voxengo Boogex:

With Boogex I replaced my WarpVST effect - Boogex is one good and free distortion!

Voxengo Elephant,
  Voxengo Soniformer,
    Voxengo CurveEQ,
      Voxengo Polysquasher,
        Voxengo Transmodder:

Finally!  Thank you!  I've remixed or remastered allot of music recently using a varity of Voxengo products and the difference is amazing.  The plugins are well designed.  From TV commercials to Fantsatic 4 trailers to Christian music to Rap - these plugins give me the sound i hear in my head.

Thanks

Voxengo SPAN:

One of the best metering plugins around and it's free!  Thank you Voxengo for bringing superb quality plugins to the people!

Voxengo Voxformer:

Voxformer is my first call channel strip for vocals.  I use a MOTU 828 MKII as the pre-amp stage for a Rode NT-1A and route it through Creamware Scope via ADAT into Cubase SX3 or Sonar 4PE and Antares Mic-Modeler.  I generally create a preset for each vocalist and call that up for recording.

I cannot tell you how amazing this sounds.  It sounds better than the UA-LA, Avalon and Focusrite hardware.  Hard to beleive but the recordings are the proof.  Amazingly, it does this for a ridiculously low price point by comparison.  I have been skeptical that plug-ins could sound so great, but the proof is that the hardware sits on the shelf and when clients come in all I have to do is load up their presets and we're ready to go in a flash.  I have also used Voxformer and Mic-Modeler to match recordings done in other studios with high end hardware.  While this takes a bit of time it is amazing that a convincing match can be done with the software only.

Voxengo Elephant:

Elephant is a class of its own, the best mastering limiter i could find after months of research.  It's able to gain 2-3 additional decibel without negatively shaping the material where other limiters already scrumble it.  It's the final word in my mastering chain, whatever leaves my studio ran through it.

Voxengo r8brain PRO,
  :

For a long time I have been searching for the perfect Sample Rate Converter - and this is as close as I have yet come.

The quality from this is , to put it bluntly, incredible.  Best of all is the fact it only uses whole numbers to do the conversions instead of the fractions used by others causing the inevitable rounding errors.  Much better to use whole numbers only.

Also, you have 2 different modes - Linear Phase and Minimum Phase.  Purists will tell you to use LinPhase as it avoids any form of Phase smearing whatsoever, but my preference is MinPhase as it sounds exactly like the Audio has been through a round trip of seriously high end Digital-Analogue-Digital converter chain.

Superb

Voxengo SPAN:

If you need an FFT analyzer for your material, look no further than SPAN.  It's got all the settings you really need and now that the peak hold hang issue is solved, it's perfect.

Thanks again Voxengo.  I've recommended this plugin more times than I can count.

Voxengo Boogex:

I'm a singer/songwriter working alone, and I'm no recording expert as the following will possibly prove; but I've purchased several Voxengo products and have found they have revolutionised the sound of my recordings.  I've recently downloaded the free 'Boogex' and love it.  Being a 'one bar at a time' guitarist with limited time, it allows me to record a flat, clean guitar track, and then play around with the overdrive/cabinet/mic etc later.  That's a flexibility I've never had before and it's invaluable.  The presets sound very, very good and allow the guitar to sit in the mix very quickly and easily with little twiddling, which is what I need.  The impulses included with the package are all very usable.  I had 7 guitars on my last effort, including bass, all with a Boogex as an insert.  I found them to be rather heavy on the computer, but maybe that is to be expected.  Thanks for everything and all the best for the future.

Voxengo Pristine Space Light,
  Voxengo Impulse Modeler:

I’ve been fascinated by the impulse response technique ever since the beginning of the 1990ies and followed the development and improvements that this technique could offer in the reverberation aria ever since.  I’ve used Pristine Space Light together with Impulse modeler since Pristine Space Light was first released.  My impression is that the quality is outstanding and could compare to software solutions way up in the price list.

Let me give you an example: Lately there have been a release within a very big company (no names given) which combines what they call High definition impulse response together with traditional solutions for reverberation.  I took a vocal track (dry) and added some HDIR and modified it to my taste.  I spent about 4 hours (mostly because of curiosity) to get it right.  This new software is in fact impressive.

Then I designed a room of comparable size with Impulse modeler and imported to pristine space light and applied it on my vocal track.  I made adjustments of my taste and noticed that there is absolutely no modification restrictions in PSL compared to the very big company’s newly released product.  When I was satisfied with the result, I made an A/B comparison.

Guess what?  Pristine Space Light + IM sounded better, warmer and more natural.  I tested the comparison on a few of my colleges and their opinion was the same.

It’s fair to give “the big company” credit in that I was not used to their GUI and have used PSL+IM for a while.  It could be that I did not use the full capacity of the newly released product from the big company.  But then again, it took me about 45 minutes (compared with 4 hours) to beat the big company’s quality reverb convolution.  In my opinion, there is not that much to discuss.

This is in no way a scientific correct comparison between software solutions but one thing is without any doubt, the capacity to modulate impulse response is far better in PSL.  And – in my view, you get better quality in terms of

1) Natural sounding

2) Realistic sound

with PSL.

Did I mention that the big company’s software costs around three times as much as PSL+IM together?  But then again, this is not a fair way to compare software since the big company’s software is not able of modeling your own acoustic room.  You are bound to use already made “standard” rooms or other solutions.  So it’s fairer to compare PSL (solely) with the big company’s software.  Then the big company’s software is about six times as expensive and not really any better.

My hat is of for Aleksey Vaneev.

Voxengo Analogflux Suite:

Though I'm not a professional composer the music takes a big place in my life.  With Analogflux plugins it has now new breath and dimension.  It is especially pleasant considering my own work on its graphical interface design.  I've noticed that people out there pay lot of attention to TapeBus, and I suppose that there are more great plugins than just TB.

For example Chorus is just the best of its kind!  And the delay, has yet simple but unique sound I've never found with any other plugins.
