This plus proper gain staging (between plugins into the mix buss) will take you a long way from digital sounding mixes. The added headroom plus the sum of harmonics/saturation added to each track does some nice things for the mix. Even the nebula free has a preset call "State of Logic 4kG (or something like that)" in the preset section. Use it on individual tracks to give the mix that nice low end and sheen on the hi end that you get from an SSL 4000G console. Also, Nebula is dynamic and not static so it responds to the program material like actual hardware does.
