It ain't cheap, and it's dongled, but it sure looks like a lot of fun!

Can't find the price on the site. How much?

looks like something for movie and commercial work... I love to try it out but it's way out of my price range.

Oh. Yes, that looks (and sounds) very very cool and if I thought I'd be doing any paid work for radio I'd get it in an instant!

(although I'm sure I could get pretty close results using the gigabytes of samples and effects I already own in a creative way...

)

that's a little bit extreme. hope they were using soundelux microphones at that price... geez.

That's funny, I was just recently thinking with all these kids listening to music on their cellphones nowadays (don't you just hate that?) there should be a plugin that lets you check your mixes through a cellphone speaker simulation.

Wow... I remember this being announced a couple of years back?

I've been looking forward to it ever since, just based on the audio demos... Don't think I can justify the dough at the moment though.

Very nice audio clips on the website.

----Wow, low-fi awesomeness, but way too spendy for the hobbyist.

€ 395 ex VAT
€ 470.05 inc VAT

THE HELL? That's like 75Euro VAT alone (duh! Stupid 19% - I want my 16% VAT back!)! o_O

And what dongle? iLok? Really, for just an IR VST Plugin with speakers/cabinets only, it's really a bit expensive compared what's on the market or available for free already.

Though I really have to admit, the concept is definitely cool for various sounddesign and postproduction stuff, as it has sends/delay, etc all included what you'd have to built from yourself via massive routing, etc. Though I really hope that I'm not bound to the "ambience sound" for the speakers, too. Like... noise from the streets if I need it for vocals, etc.

Altiverb is great and this looks like it can be a highly creative tool. I've been waiting for it since it was announced.

Great concept...sucky price.

Though if you were a pro, it's the cost of one location excursion

PACE or iLock from what I understand. PACE has cleaned up it's act lately, and is no problem on my macs, G5 and Intel.
Yes, you can import in your own sound beds, but no IR import, yet.
Price is high, but I think I might have to buy it.
So I'll be selling Reason, Digital Performer, and Massive soon.
