In what way? Can you be more specific?

It looks a bit like say Kramer Tape but the ''sound'' didn't do anything for me. It seemed to me to be more like a cheap immitation, like the difference between a real Rolex and a Fake one. :)

All imho. Maybe you will like it, I don't.
This is the same method MJ used when he was working on Anthony Marinelli's Thriller.

I think that Kramer Tape is in same-same quality range. Tapedesk at least got an crosstalk emulation, which
NONE of Waves products have, not even NLS range. Which is kinda ridiculous considering they offer 50Hz or 60Hz noise option :)

But otherwise you thinks it's crap? Am I right? Am I right?

Why bother, get ReelBus. No point to get expensive plugins with similar capabilities

I already have Klanghelm SDRR (Each mode has its unique crosstalk behavior, which can be switched off or exaggerated.), Sonimus (Britson and Satson) and the Free Sleepy-Time DSP Crosstalk for ... crosstalk. Probably others I've forgotten about as well. I don't really need the Overloud one.

Been using this for a while on mainout and really liking it.

I open an auto-gain plug-in, surf presets then adjust input levels looking at meter (usually they're too hot). It glues nicely and based on tape-speed and/or preamp get to decide if I want to smooth the edges or not. Very simple and fast to work with.

Also another underrated plug-in, their Api eq has way more mojo than waves alternative.
