To me, Pro-R is the weakest plugin in an otherwise stellar lineup. Shortly after getting Pro-R I put it on everything but then slowly started to replace it with other plugins (even some freebies) because it colors everything that goes through it in such an unpleasent way. I was really surprised because many instances of C2, Q2, and Saturn can be found in almost all of my projects. Don't get me wrong, the design -- like all FF plugins -- is fantastic. And the GUI animation is absolutely mesmerizing -- like a plugin lava lamp. But the sound is just plain wierd. Despite reading the entire manual, watching all the videos I could find, and spending many days with the plugin, I was never able to get it to sound good. Perhaps Pro-R2 will be better (to my ears)... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheSteven Posted May 20, 2020 Share Posted May 20, 2020 (edited) While I love FF stuff - I'm really waiting either for a kick @***** video demo to show me what secret sauce V2 adds* or until I have time to seriously beat on it. Not really impressed by what I've seen or heard so far. The reality is that I will pick it up at some point but right now I've no urge to postpone getting something else to grab it NOW. *yes, I've seen the list but show me/play me something that will make me care.

I didn't say it was better, just that it has no equal. Truth is, when I want the reverb to be heard, I use one of the Valhalla plugins. Usually the plate. But if I just want natural-sounding spaciousness without an obvious effect (e.g. orchestrations), Pro-R does the job like no other due to its ability to shape decays non-linearly. Nobody else does that, AFAIK. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RBH Posted May 21, 2020 Share Posted May 21, 2020 Saturn sounds really good from the demoes I've seen regarding V1. Is the plug load very heavy with this? I find myself using the Tube plug-in in Pro channel more than I thought I ever would, and wonder if a few intenses of Saturn would have any significant hit on CPU.

I only have the pro-l2 limiter and the pro-q3 . . . they sound great, and have awesome GUI. That pro-q3 eq is an absolute dream to work with.

I do think that Pro R is exellent when i wnat a very specific Curve and behavior , i use it very few , but when needed it does the job with class and pleasure to handle ...

CPU was my concern , unless you oversmapling x 32 lol it's on pair with V1 witch is the good news for me !!! i put myself in Good quality and it's exellent , linear phase hit on cpu is marginal /...
