Chuck, you know perfectly well who I am, and you know who "Yammer" is, and you not only know we're not the same person, you know we're not affiliated, any more than you and Yammer are affiliated (since you know him in the same capacity I do).
How am I baiting you! I just asked for your opinion of the plug-in, which is what the OP asked for. I don't like fanboyism either, but there's no reason I can't have an on-topic positive opinion about this plug-in, based on working with it. There's also no reason you can't have a different opinion. That would still be productive.
I'd be happy to read any opinions, positive or not, that begin along the lines of "I've worked with this plug-in for awhile, and here's what I've found..." like Michael Brauer did; rather than these vacuous generic rants about digital audio or plug-ins.
Whatever the domain or the category of device, there is quality and there is crap. If we start from there, we might get somewhere worth going.
I think your straw poll of clients is skewed (though not deliberately). Whenever there are changes after the fact, in my experience there's usually a preference for the original mix, if it was good to begin with. It might be interesting to hear some client reaction where the plug-in is used up front. That way they're just reacting to what they hear, rather than the loaded context of making changes to an approved mix.
