    They are nice, but fail to work on 64bit platforms (they are working on this I believe)

    All nice, but compared the eq to the UAD (a hardware card based dsp) and the top end was a bit scratchy - but much nicer than most DAWs inbuilt eqs.

    Very nice sounding. The dynamics are awkward to use, but effective.

    I have the elite package & i'd highly recommend it.

    The eq is musical and accurate.

    The dynamics plug provides amazing control with 6 different simultaneous processors with low latency. There's a small learning curve but worth the effort.

    The SuprEsser is fiddly and slow but can provide control I haven't seen in any other plug.

    Reverb has some very usable verbs. Not as accurate as some convolution verbs i've used, but musically pleasing.

    Limiter, transmod and inflator are all easy to use and very effective.

    I also have waves gold. Out of 20 plugs included, I only use 4 or 5 of the same ones regularly. The sonnox plugs make their way on to pretty much everything I record.

    Hmmm ... Bit of a mixed response..

    Bear in mind that it is only software - it would be worth demoing it all before buying!

    The UAD is a little difficult to demo as it's hardware, but most software has some form of demo....

    Your ears may prefer how the sonnox sounds compared to others... it's down to personal preference!!!
