I've tested all this Abbey Road plugins except for the mastering stuff.

IMHO they are all crap, and just good marketing.
But as some here know I feel that for a lot of plugins.

DSP development for plugins is moving so fast, that plugins that were great a year ago may be overstepped my someone else today.

My Best plugin list for today:
-Nebula projects http://www.analoginthebox.com/index.php
-SPL transient designer and TwinTube
-URS Sat and channel strip pro
-Stillwell Rocket and Vibe-eq http://www.stillwellaudio.com/?page_id=28
-SofTube FET compr. and Tube Delay http://www.softube.se/fet_compressor.php
-Audioease Speakerphone and Altiverb
-PSP Xenon and sQuad

best,
Pål

Hey Pal,

Thanks for the heads up.., these were brought to my attention last week by a mastering client, who incidentally I had to help get the plugins up and running in Wavelab after the they were blacklisted by a screwed iLok authorisation.

The client had incorrectly updated the iLok driver which the plugin installer demanded.

I downloaded the demos on to my own iLok to sort the issue for him, but still haven't had a chance to run them up..

BTW: Abbey Roads support response and solution offered to the plugs not showing up in Wavelab 5.01 , wait for it, try updating to SP3... ?? :nono:

I really do have to wonder some time...
