Unless you already have the Waves reverb, you might want to demo ValhallaPlate ($50) first. It's not as realistic a plate emulation, but it sounds awesome and you won't have to jump through the Waves authorization hoops.


All else is in doubt, so this is the truth I cling to.

I don't know what hoops you are referring to but I find Waves plugin installation and license managing very easy without issue.  I think they finally got it right.

Exactly, there is no issue or hoops, it's brain dead easy and straight forward. But 'Ol Fozzie just has to get one in every chance he can, he's been doing it for years, every now and then he says he is going to stop, but he just can't help himself lol
 
Valhalla Plate is excellent, but I don't know I would take it over Waves A/R Plates, I have both so I don't need to worry about it.

Abbey Road Plates sounds awesome but it takes a lot of CPU power

Switching the pointless animation and huge graphic of the plates off reduces the cpu load quite a bit. Same with the Abbey Road tape emulation.

thanks for pointing that out. never thought that graphics of VST could make much of a difference

The Abbey Roads plates is my favourite reverb, hooked me on Waves when I had resisted them for a while.

Intel i7 3770K @4.4GHz, 32GB RAM, 240GB SSD System disk, 2 x 2TB and 1 x 1TB (with SSD Cache) HDD. Windows 10,  Sonar Platinum. Roland Quad Capture.

I just picked up the Abbey Road Plates plugin on a daily deal for $29 about a week ago. No brainer, sounds awesome. While we're at it Waves has been running some really cheap deals lately, got the Abbey Road ADT, Scheps 1073, Kramer Pie Compressor, and CLA-76 Compressor all for $29 each, plus additional discount applied for buying multiple plugs. They're all top notch.

EDIT: One note on the Waves installation/authorization. I had an older version of Waves Central installed, and it said it was automatically updating itself when I tried to install/authorize my recent purchases, however it did not actually do so. I kept getting an error when I attempted to install my new purchases (though they were showing up in my library of registered products). A little Googling and I found a Waves tech support topic (which I'd been unable to locate browsing the Waves site) which instructed me to manually download and install the newest version of Waves Central. After that, everything installed and authorized easy as pie.
