Sonimus Satson (Console emulation) ready to buy now :)

[b-pole]

Dear fellows,

Sonimus Satson is ready to buy now.

Bought it, and I have really to say, worth every single Dollar.

The new homepage is ready now, too.

http://dsp.sonimus.com/

I hope we will not have a "blocked" thread again here because of strange discussions about this great plug in the past.

Please consider: I am not interested in technical discussions, again.

For me it is the sound quality that counts, nothing more and nothing less.

I would be interested in your opinions, so I decided to make a poll. Do you like it or not?

I hope we will have a lot of replies here.

Please consider that AU64 is still in beta and VST64 will come soon.

Greetings

Waiting for the demo.

Is there a kind of teamwork between buss and channel? Or how does it work?

Awesome!

A couple questions:
http://dsp.sonimus.com/products/satson/

"1. Saturation can be disabled if you only want to use Satson for trim and metering." - What about stereo crosstalk? Can I use these without saturation, but with crosstalk?

"2. Satson Buss has a "LOUD" switch that adds more "air" on highs and punch on lows." - Looking at the picture, I only see "FAT" and "On/Off" switch on the Satson Buss. Where is the "LOUD" switch located?

Thanks!

Hope that there's gonna be a demo version!

I would like to try a demo before buying. I want to get a Console plugin at some point but the choice is tough with Redline Preamp, Slate Console and Soundtoys Juice. I suppose price is one think that is speaking in favor of Satson....

I'd also like to try a demo, wouldn't mind hearing lots of A/B on/off examples also.

demo next week, weird idea for a poll

the poll is not timely limited...enough time to test after the Demo will be out...

It's okay for me to wait for a demo. But when you release a product nowadays, you should at least have some sort of audio previews or videos showing dry and wet settings of the plug-in, or the release is pretty much useless. (Beside some people can't wait and it's that amazing-bargain-mixture )

B-pole: In what areas would you use the plugin? Glueing buses in the mix, in the mastering chain - specific instruments? I'm curious to know.

This is emulating the behaviour and sound of mix consoles. You actually run instances of the *channel* on each channel and *buss* on every bus + master bus. At least this is recommended in the manual and this is also the same with VCC.

[suecae_sounds]

That sounds straightforward enough. But my question wasn't merely technical, but more if it excels in all or certain of these areas.

[dalor]

Well, I'm in. For $39 and their copy protection scheme this is something I can't resist.
Edit: Have bought it/tested it. All I can say - for $39 this is a NO BRAINER. Samson and my beloved VCC will be best friends Jeez, we are getting spoiled these days! If this will not generate a hype then I don't know what will..

How can we answer a poll about a product we can't try or even hear?

Were there sound clips posted earlier?

I guess this is a poll for the few people that were willing to buy it purely on faith.

I would answer the poll question "Are you satisfied with the GUI?"

Looks nice.

If mastering/saturation and getting peaky spikes under control is on your agenda, bite the bullet and buy the damn thing, you won't be disappointed, unless you are using it wrong!
