Bump to go for this deal before they shut the sale down.
Some real gems in there. The distortion boxes are all spinoffs of the same design it seems, but a beautiful sound. Almost captures a hybrid surrogate of the amp and speaker cabinet interaction. The full price of the suite used to be near $500, which was unwarranted. Many plugs with beautiful GUI's being just an eq adjustment, presented as some new effect. Thus many of the boxes never used because you can do the same with a freeware parametric eq.. The price of these things at the previous $49 per plug was a waste of money to tweak the hi end up a bit.
Have my hi end American strat mothballed somewhere. Using a far superior mexican strat with neodymium pickups, so don't know if normal pickups will deliver meh response with these plugins, but there is the generous demo. Allows 15 or 20 minutes of anything before it craps out and requires a reload. Demo also can't save presets.
Cool and worth the $49 investment in my book. Just install, go through the feast and delete the dll's of what you don't need. Enough excellent quality stomps in there to justify the price.
