Just spent 40 minutes using various plug-ins from the Modern and Vintage collection; I don't own and have never directly heard (i.e. only on recordings) any 'top-end' hardware units, so I'm not qualified to make comparisons.

What can I say? Well the plug-ins sound amazing! It's not often I'm that impressed by anything but I've go to hand it to the creator that, to my ears, they are outstanding.

I used the Vintage VR-ME and Vintage EQ's on a problematic track (i.e. problematic=myself singing and playing guitar) and, whilst no plug-in yet invented can improve my singing and guitar playing, the track was brought to life in terms of tone and distinction.

I appreciate there is an issue of music sounding better just through some warming amplification, addition of harmonics or compression (and these plug-ins can sure achieve that in a positive sense)...however it really is more than that here.

Just placing the Vintage EQ on the guitar with a little tweak in the mud area really sorted it out. The Vintage VR-ME across the bus really brought distinction to the total mix.

I will explore further and post some more later.
