Has anyone found themselves using the Nomad Factory plugins in lieu of previous plugins?

Like many, I find myself slow to switch plugins if something already works for me.  So far I have found myself using the Nomad gate more than the Sonitus or the pro channel module.  It just feels less harsh.  I also find myself using the delays regularly now.

    Yep. I'm using the delay and chorus a lot.

    The Nomad Factory plugins were actually the first ones I EVER bought (WAAAAAY back in the day) when I first setup my studio.  Since then, I haven't really returned to them at all.  They are definitely great plugins, but I guess they sort of wore out their welcome for me or something, because I've been using them for MANY years. 
     
    For old time's sake though, I think I might try doing a session sometime soon, where I'll use the Nomad Factory stuff exclusively, sort of as a tribute to my old school workflow.  I'm actually glad that they're becoming more widely used around here though, glad to hear other people are enjoying them.

    Delay and Chorus here... so far.   But I'm liking the spatial plug too, just haven't needed it yet.

    I have not really used the chorus yet beyond just testing it out.  I did use the spatial plugin for one recording but ended up pulling it off because my mix seemed to dull some.

    Interesting...  I'll definitely have to remember that for when I use it for real.  
     
    So far I've just played around with it to see how it narrows or widens soft synths.   Much quicker than Channel Tools for this simple purpose.
