I've been looking for where they sell these, link to a webstore maybe?
 

 
The effect pedal is maybe a pretty good analogy.  They're mostly single function and can make you sound better.
 
I'm more inclined to spend a few minutes learning what these one-knob plugins are doing and then do it myself, adjusting things to my particular situtation.
 

I demo'ed it last night and it does sound good.  Seems sort of like a compressor/limiter/exciter rolled together.  But for $150?  Probably not.

These kinds of make-gooder plugins would have a lot more credibility if they could cite a single hit record made with them.

Who knows - without trying first - it could well be something quite good.
 
I would, however, approach it with skepticism given the dubious manner in which it is advertised. I could easily duplicate the "demonstration" offered by Mr. Wells using a number of other tools. You can do it, too. Just bypass your master bus chain - if you've done anything right at all, it will sound worse, just like in the demo video.

Heck with the "make-good" idea. A mess is a mess will always be a mess. If the mix IS NOT a mess, then I have no need for such a plugin. If the mix IS a mess, there's nothing any plugin can do to fix it.
 
What I DO have a need for is for quickly putting decent-sounding demos together. That's why I like the Chris Lord-Alge bundle. I put the appropriate plugin on each instrument/vocal track, starting with everything at unity and tweak from there. As I've mentioned elsewhere, I wound up with two licenses for this bundle, paying $79 for one and totaling out just under $100 for the other. If I forget about the screw-up, I paid less than $15 for each of the plugins. I've got some Waves plugins that I don't use, but these are great for demos or quick toss-offs. I have a feeling that you could do a decent mix with just these, but I haven't taken them that far yet.
 

 

 
G.A.S. is a way of life, I've just got to accept that. For some reason, I've having a surprisingly easy time passing up these Greg Wells plugins. Maybe I've turned a corner!
 
 
Yeah, riiiiiiight! 

When I saw the title I instantly thought of this -

That sums it up for me.  I didn't hear anything that I couldn't get with a combination of other plugins.  I could, however, see it being helpful to someone who is very new to mixing with no idea of how to take a recording up a level.
