This looks like it could be an interesting plugin. Coming soon from XLN

Let's hope the plugin is more compelling than this demo track.

for 80 bucks i dunno... can it do something what SATIN cant do?

Nice and I'd love to demo it but €80 is a lot of money, so I'll pass.

Downloading now. Let's hope for a low resource usage, else it's to the trash for me...not room left for anything heavy until I upgrade.
^Nice. 7 - 10% for 3 modules running..now for the sound?
*It's easy to add unwanted tones that hide a bit, so you have to be careful..looking for the positive, haven't come across anything that drastically enhances, yet..I'm sure it's there somewhere

^Well, I tried. I can't find a use for it that I can't do better with speakerphone and reverb. If you don't have speakerphone, then placing this on drums instead would be a good choice.

guess i have to demo too, i also dont understand this price, U-He Satin is also not cheap but maybe more options? instead of spending 80 bucks i think i will save those for speakerphone and hope to get it for 300 bucks or something.

Whilst I imagine there may be overlap with Satin, I don't think they are designed to serve the same purpose or target markets.
I do think speakerphone is a more appropriate comparison.
I owned speakerphone 1 but never updated to 2. I find that audioease takes wayyyy too long to fix bugs and update their plugins......took quite awhile for them to even go 64 bit. Speakerphone however I do agree is more flexible, although much more expensive, and for those who are anti-ilok (I am not) that may be an issue for them with speakerphone.
I also have two systems, one mac, one pc that I try to be as comparable as possible, and certainly with retro-color I can have two authorisations without having to buy another license, don't think speakerphone allows two authorisation iloks (I could be wrong).
But in the end, yes buy what is more useful for you.
I haven't used speakerphone in ages since I couldn't' justify the update to 2 from 1 (just checked again $149 US), and I have long since moved on to a 64bit Daw system.

I thought, for the longest time, that all iLoks were for one system. Just found out recently, through here, that I could check my virtual account for the limit. Most are 2..izotope is 1 for some reason(for DDLY). Though, they say you can do the secondary license method for that one, which I guess is a standard C/R. Kind of have all that on hold until I get my new system

I just remembered that XLN has the most annoying installation procedure ever. Skipped.

The developer gets to choose.
Some do: Soundtoys, softube, slate etc
some don't: mcdsp, exponential audio etc.
