Other software modulation effects

Ever want to create those whooshing sounds that you hear from flangers and whatnot but in a more easy to see manner? If so, Waves has the plugin for you. With this program, you have adjustments for the frequency change, the speed, distance and a few other things. To use this, you simply enable it on a buss and start adjusting. I didn't experience any compatibility issues, so I can't comment on that. I never read the manual, but I don't think it's really necessary for these plugins. This plugin can be a bit more daunting for the first timer, so I recommend messing with the built-in presets and seeing how they're all set up. That should give you a good idea as to how everything works. SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE Waves plugins have always been some of the most stable plugins I've experienced. They're cross platform compatible, so they'll work with both PCs and Macs. As a Mac user, that's a huge advantage for someone like me. They run in 32 bit mode, but Logic uses a wrapper-like application that runs so you don't interfere with your 64 bit interface. I've tried this on various different buses, and it seems to work on anything with ease. It even works nicely on MIDI, which I found a bit surprising. There are no performance issues at all, and that's a huge plus when working in a DAW filled with all kinds of synths and tracks running tons of plugins. These plugins came with my Mercury package, and I've had that for a few months now. OVERALL OPINION I don't have as much use for this as I do their other plugins. It's a solid plugin, and you can create some cool flanging/speed movement sounds, but aside from that, its usage is limited. I would assume a lot of electronica guys would love this as I hear this kind of effect in almost every trance song out there. If that's the case, you'll probably love this plugin.
