I have...

Without even tryin it... Is that f**ked up?

I thought for 10 euros, 'It's just gotta be worth it'.. (I'm a sucker for a 'bargin' though :oops: )

It also makes me think.. Put anything in a shinny box, get out to the right people to sell it for you.. And you're gonna get takers..

Anywayz..

HAPPY, HEALTHY AND HIPPITY HOPPITY HAPPENING 2010 Ya all! :D

Nope. I'm trying to avoid spending money on things I don't need so I can spend it on more expensive things I don't need.

You know what if all plugin/software companies do the same price nobody would looking for a crack version. Everybody would pay for the original!

My calculation for a hundred person;
When the price is exaggerated (e.g. 189$ for a plug in) 1% person pays. Company earn $189.-
When price is cheap (e.g. 15$) %99 person pays. Company earn 99*15 = $1 485.-

Which one is advantageous for seller?
Which one is advantageous for buyer?

This should be point for all companies!

Stop the hi price - then - stop the crack!
Voila

Finally i bought the Tube Analog TrackBox without hesitating!
If it was $189 I would NEVER pay! even never try!

Happy new years to everybody!

Me too! I almost pulled the trigger, but don't want something that may crash live or sounds like poo.

I have ambivalent feelings with product ranges where you can't tell the difference between the products easily. Same with Voxengo: They might be great plugins but blowing out a product for every aspect makes me scratch my head.

That's exactly that!

It may not and probably won't get used in every track... Even if it only get used 10 times.. That's only a euro a go.. For me it's gotta be worth it.. I like having shit loads of options :P

Hi guys!

I've just tried the plug-in (in demo mode cause I'm waiting for the authorization for the moment)
My first impression is very good! During the Noel I was busy by recoding the vocal one of my song. And I was suffering with compression,gate, Eq etc. (in fact shortly channel strip ;-) Ableton compressor not bad but in my musical taste (or with my vocal) somethings were going wrong but with the TrackBox my first test passed good.
I think I'll stick it! I think of using for all channels as a default strip plug-in.

I'd like to add few words about MDE-X of Korg too, When you buy a Legacy Korg collection You have it. I very loved the reverb, Eq and the exciter and mastering tools.

The choices are not just pay the piper or get a crack.

You can always just chose to do neither and just not bother.

Very few plugins are really worth the hype and their money in relation to the thousands out there. I agree that volume selling should help reduce piracy, but it has been shown time and again that many people will still download cracks rather than spend even 5 bucks on something. Even 1 buck in the case of music downloads. Some people just have that sense of entitlement, and really are that cheap.

As for this plugin, I haven't tried it, so can't comment but overall Nomad Factory's plugins which I have tried have been of a good to very good standard. Whether they are worth the money or not is a purely personal thing - demo them and take it from there.

I HAVE!!!!!!!

15$ FFS... I can't resist such prices... (already bought AAS ultra analog, but I don't use it...)

I tried BT trackbox on my mfb synth II, just to try it after installing...

and...

:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: 8) 8) 8)

http://soundcloud.com/monstrejumo/monst ... house-edit

here is a first squetch of a new track (a self-remix of my pantera bootleg),

and the synth.... well, give it a listening session and tell me about it ! !!!!

I pushed the plug a lot (tube emulation+ input gain + limiter + EQ), but then, bypassing it just was a big pain...

I have parallel routing for the "monoed" sub part of the synth sound and the return-track-reverb-sent stereo-dephased mid/high part, that occurs AFTER BT trackbox, so the plug is not alone involved in the great synth sound... but as I said, bypassing the plug makes a huge difference, as the "original" sound is not so harsh crisp fat warm low-end-rich... (in fact the original sound, that I before found to be really great sounding, now sounds... crap)

I'll ALWAYS use BT trackbox on my synths now.

Thanks audiomidi!

cheers
