I have known about Sonarworks for some time, but never really thought id send the money on it, because "why"... I already have a ton of different VSTs and other plugins, and I just assumed this would be added to the ever growing pile of unused software. This is not the case with Sonarworks. It has became my number 1 always on go to plugin in my DAW. I decided to just try the free trial, and instantly could tell the difference between my mixes before and after using Sonarworks. It really did make a difference in the quality & accuracy of my desicions I make based on what I hear... e.g for the first time I heard the true nature of my mixes, and I could make accurate adjustments.
