Anyone got this DSP card and plug-ins? I have heard terrific things about the quality of the condenser/limiters that come with it and the EQ's and reverbs are supposed to be pretty good too.

Comments?

I've had this for a while, and love it. LA2A on vocals is instant goodness. EX1 is a fine EQ. Unless you have the big money to spend on the Studio Pak, I suggest you find a used version of the orignal card as it has more plugins than the Project Pak.

Before ya get a UAD take a look at the Pulsar2 from creamware...its now out of production, so can be picked up reasonably cheap from E-Bay or watever.
The new versions are called Scope and come in home, project and pro(3,6,14DSPs respectivly)

I know Ive bigged up these cards before, but seriously, man they rock to the Max, and are so much more versatile than anything else on the market...Creamware are such good quality, look out for the reviews of the just released ASB device...the new Moog I tells ye

clicky clicky for the company site
or
clicky clicky for the user forums
