That's what the word "similar" means - not same but like.softska wrote:No it isn't. I never had any instability. Your experience maybe different but it is not like waves at all. The only similarity is both can authorized to a usb drive.robotmonkey wrote:PA uses it's own C/R style CP that is similar to Waves only much much more annoying and unstable.
With PA you can't move license back to cloud like Wave does, instead you get 3 co-current activations with option to de-authorize yourself.

Played guitar with it, sounds good and seems no latency.
I only wished the level trim had more range (to compare the sound bypassed). And maybe if the knee was just a tiny bit more softer could be setuped easier.

I'd say it's actually pretty dissimilar to (and better than) Waves style protection. Not found it unstable in any way either.robotmonkey wrote:That's what the word "similar" means - not same but like.softska wrote:No it isn't. I never had any instability.

Thank you for the free comp, PA!
Btw, never had any issue with their protection. Really like the fact that you can easily de-activate your machines yourself. You don't have to beg the dev to free some activations for you.

thats the way to go in terms of cp in future imo. in most cases it just f***s up the user experience for those people who actually bought the software. and when i hear about people buying cubase or whatever piece of software that requires a dongle, but then actually use a cracked version, simply because its more convenient for them that speaks volumes to me...

I prefer the full Opto comp. The mix knob, the more detailed settings and especially the filter make it a lot more actually useful to me. I like BX more and more with each release. What I especially like about this comp, firstly I like Opto comps, but secondly they've not based it on any one unit, but it's sort of a best all round design with some, according to them, unique characteristics that digital allows for. IMO that's the kind of design philosophy I want, and not just recreations of specific studio gear.

Anybody doing the $49 upgrade to the bx_opto compressor ($149 MSRP full product with meter, etc. from the currently free/$49 MSRP pedal version)?
It seems like a good deal for the PA-verse (Plugin Alliance).
That said, I think even most of their sale prices too high... but that's just me.
I have a few of their plug-ins, though I paid less than $10 a piece on average because of mostly cheaper items at ridiculous multi-discount deals.
For example, I got a 20% discount on the already cheap bx_tuner by ordering it along with the free opto pedal.

I was wondering that myself. Can't see any mention of one in the email that was sent.
