Definately! Duende sounds very good! I can't even believe that the Waves SSL clones sound nearly as good!

A lot guys here seem to ignore the fact that the SSL's Algorithm was developed for the C-Consoles!!! Waves approach was building a plug in that sounds close to analog standards, SSL used an existing algorithm and transferred it into that unit!

This is the original ladies and gentlemen!

I am sure the waves tools will sound good! Perhaps the first unit from waves that sounds good! LOL *just kidding I do not know all of them*

I increased gain at 14kHz on the Duende EQ! This is where lot of other softQs sound like ass! Duende's EQ does definately not!!!

And when we talk about the C-Console algorithms I must admit there are people that dislike these units. Me not! And I also like the "Underdog Productions" releases which are most of the time mixed on a C200.

Oh by the way, the list Tony showed us listed how many instances can be started! I wonder what configurations did waves use for that test? 85 tracks of music from a firewire drive and a firewire interface? Just a sequencer's mixer with 85 opened instances? It is interesting what I could do on my machine!!! Actually I would also like to know if Waves SSL Plug Ins operate with Ableton Live? Most Waves tools do not work under that DAW! Duende does!
