Whatever you do, don't watch the video demo of it.

This is the guy behind Impactsoundwork’s bass plugin.

Which one? The beta version video from 4 weeks ago or the recent demo video?

I've seen both videos and the audio on them is a bit subpar. While that bears no semblance to the great quality of plugins ChowDSP makes, people watching might get the wrong impression.

I agree about the sound quality of the videos.  The one from 4 weeks ago sounds like it was done after an all-nighter / not enough sleep or with laryngitis** and the recent demo of how to draw and tweak the curve has audio is super low. I also agree that the quality plug-ins are better than the quality of the audio in the videos.

**Or, it could be digital artifacts on the mic line (digital mismatch maybe).

Sadly, one of the plugins which would be the crown jewel of the pack cannot be used properly in Cakewalk, as you don't have access to channel settings per plugin. Because of the 3 band crossover, this plugin has 8 outputs (2 main and 2 for each of the three crossover bands), but CbB only reports it as having 2. In order to make use of the crossover bands, you have to load the plugin inside a wrapper like Kushview Element. Then you'll have access to the remaining I/O.
