| Tried the Duende with a couple buddies the other day. Quite frankly it sounds like complete ass. Haven't tried the Waves bundle yet but since the renaissance eq and compressor still sound a million times better than that waste of space after all these years, I can only imagine how much better the WAVES engineered clones must sound. Don't waste a cent on it. SSL can't make digital stuff to save their life. Hmmmm, must be why they hired waves in the first place. I know it's tempting to pull up something that says SSL on it while you mix, but really, that company needs to stop getting ridiculous amounts of money for their name and realize that they can't survive selling great equipment for ridiculous prices (the analogue stuff), and can't sell shit with their name on it and expect everyone to treat it as brilliant. |
