My initial thoughts after playing with it and the MB for about 1/2 hour are as follows:
Opened existing project, replaced LP64EQ and MB with the new versions. They are, how do I say it. I want to say transparent,but I don't think that's quite right, more like smooth, polished! I still left the originals on because they were 90% there already. (I ended up using IK's MEQ432, man that thing is gold to me). I could definitely see using them on future projects. One thing I did not like was that they were very taxing on my system, especially graphics wise.(Admittedly, I did not prepare for this, I just slapped them on). They made my clock and time ruler lurch around, something I hadn't seen since my Pentium 4 days. I moved my buffers up to 512 and that helped but still kinda jittery. I closed my eyes. Anyone else see this sort of thing? The analyzer stayed pretty smooth though.
That sort of thing makes me nervous every time. I keep thinking, am I on the edge of stability right now? My performance meters don't seem to be breaking a sweat though, so I guess just close it once it is where I like it and live with it.(Everything back to normal once you close the display, even minimized it affects graphics.)
