Sure, there are lot of newer plugins, which offers additional features, but it doesn't make Sonnox stuff outdated IMO. I'm with AM's post regarding emperor's new clothes and some users seems to be crazy to me regarding steady delivery of news. Some of the 'big ticket' or higher priced plugins out there, if you check, they have invested in the R+D of getting the AAX DSP format out the door for their client base that need it.īTW we are over 1/2 way on the Group Buy with 177 out of 300 signed up already.Įven with 50% discount these plugins are way too expensive and outdatedWell actual value of gear/plugin is pretty subjective, but I'm going to disagree with you regarding outdated statement. One of the main reasons we are doing to the Sonnox Group Buy is to let some people who might not have had the funds to get a Sonnox plugin access to them. And we end-users, who pay the bill, we have right to express our opinion - thanks for the forums such as the Gearslutz!Hello Harry_O, Of course the developer company/dealer has all right to choose their own marketing/pricing strategy. When I bought the Sonnox (the Sony Oxford) EQ about 6 years ago, it was said to be THE state of the art EQ.
I have to say I agree with those in the thread (and also in generally, see other forums such as the KVR) who say Sonnox is TODAY overpriced. And we end-users, who pay the bill, we have right to express our opinion - thanks for the forums such as the Gearslutz!
The best plugins still cost a lot of money, but the Sonnox market positioning is wrong. T-racks EQ 73 or 432.Īlso the whole market scene has changed since Sonnox pricing was "justified" (of course, this dimension is always relative and changing): Waves plugins cost in average about 50 % what they use to 5 years ago. If I need more character/color, I use the Waves H-Eq or e.g. Why - the main reason, if I need a clean cut/boost, the Pro-Q just sounds better, its much more versatile than the Sonnox, the UI is superior etc. After I purchased the Pro-Q, I have not used my Sonnox EQ at all. DMGAudio Equilibrium and Fabfilter Pro-Q 2. It is still a good eq.īut a lot has happened since - and not just new emperors without the clothes. There have been a lot of "emperors new clothes" since, but beyond the Transaparant RTA in de backgrond of modern gui's nothing much has changed or improved IMHO.I have to say I agree with those in the thread (and also in generally, see other forums such as the KVR) who say Sonnox is TODAY overpriced.
