« Pretty cool, if you want vinyl effect. »

With this plug in it was very easy to install, just go to the site find it download it and install, it will automatically go into your vst folder for whatever digital audio workstation you use so you can then just go onto it and open it up and start making vinyl replica sounds.
There was no manual with this but it is pretty self explanatory to be fair, there is not really anything that you should need a manual for as everything is labelled quite well.
There was no compatibility issues with my set up, I have friends with it on different digital audio workstations and they say that it works fine on theirs too.


SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

With my configuration being a laptop with 4gb from and a 1.8GHz processor this works very well, I do not think that it takes up that much cpu either as I can run around 15 of these separately on a numerous channels with no lag what so ever which is a very good thing in my eyes.
I have used this plug in for about 5 months on and off, some projects that I work on need this effect and I am grateful that this is free ware as it is very effective and has helped me on a lot of projects.

OVERALL OPINION

I wish it had a few more in depth options but it is free so its great for what you get.
I like how you can mess around with the knobs and sliders to really get a good sound that you want.
I would use this again and again but only for certain productions.
Quality is ok, not great but if you are pretty handy in the mixdown you should get a nice sound.
I have not tried another vinyl effect plugin so I can not comment on that section.
