Toontrack EZmix

Really?!?! I dunno about this....

It doesn't seem too bad, but it's not worth $70 to me. I will just build my own fx chains/presets in Reaper for free. Now if it would let you go in and tweak the built fx individually for advanced users and cost closer to $30 then I might consider it. But... it does do what they designed it for, which is a fast and quick way to audition how a certain mix will sound like without all the hassle of setting up tons of chains yourself. I just don't like how it's tweaking is limited. Because of that it seems it would be more of a headache to even use it. It seems very likely that you would get a sound that you kinda like but needs a bit of tweaking. You then would end up trying to make a fx chain to get the sound you want. It's seems like a huge waste of time. Although the presets might actually be good. Who knows it could be chromed out with all the sounds your looking for. From a good bit of experience most products presets aren't that good, but considering this is a product that is basically like presets then they might have put in the effort to do 'em up right. I'm a little divided on it.

It looks like a nice and useful tool for those who are not interested in learning how to mix or need to get 'results' fast (whatever it might be). Saying that, I won't use something like this, it's just not for me I guess. Good luck with their sales, Toontrack seems to be a nice company.

See, I'm really surprised by how many think it's just about "taking the easy" way out. I'd think it's just another tool to get from a to b. I guess I'm in the minority (seeing from all the threads seem to have similar views)

People keep on asking for the "make me sound good" plugin". This is Toontrack's attempt!

I always thought it looked like breverb or TH1.........I had no idea it was an overloud collab....

I could imagine using this for scratching up some ideas to have a quick listen to them while they are in progress. But I already have FX-Chains for this in Reaper. Other people might not have done that, so there is surely a market for it. I would however not use this thing in a final production, simply as with those three sliders, I cannot see that one has much control about what is going on.

Looks to be one of the best ideas in VST plugins for a long while Hope they put out a demo version soon so i can check it out NAS

They said straight from the horses mouth........NO DEMO. Sorry, rogue said it, I'm just the messenger.

I find this totally interesting.... I mean, everything on the radio sounds the same, so why not save the effort of learning how to sound like everyone else & just drop this on each track! Seriously, I find this really interesting, and look forward to some reviews from the folks who buy it. :cool:
