I always liked Son-EQ. I pre ordered and this one sounds nice, too.

I like Sonimus and am somewhat interested in this but it seems like adding (up to) 16 swappable modules that you can then drag around position-wise would make automation an absolute nightmare. I watched the videos on their site and didn’t see anything about it. Do you have any insight in to how they handle this?

I'm not a huge fan of modular plugins, especially for something as simple as an EQ or a compressor. To me, it's an extra step. After inserting, I now have to browse for pieces that I need. I don't use the Slate rack or anything like those. Something about it just doesn't suit me. Maybe this one is easy to use, haven't tried it. Just a thought.

Could be an issue? Maybe not? I hadn't considered it. |

However, I think the way the plugin loads is just fine. Or with a default preset. It's got the bands in place for a standard Son-eq type set up. I only add a band if I need another mid band. I could just make the default low mid mid high pre. I don't really get off on the modularity of it. It might be useful, but really I'm just listening to the filters and saturation. |

Could be an issue? Maybe not? I hadn't considered it. Like Guitar I don’t use the Slate VMR or any other modular plugins really. I do a lot of automation on things and prefer to use a control surface and, usually, these sort of plugins are a non-starter for that workflow. Also - I like the Sonimus Channel Strip - surprised they didn’t add these modules to that |
