Lunar Lander is INCREDIBLE! Realistic BBD Delay behavior.
Scott is responsible for some of the most head strong electrocore bass-bangers such as Dark Star, Go Bang, Beyond, This is the Sound of Underground and Bad Robot.
Marc Codsi
Extremely lush melodic plate reverb emulation. I use it when I want to add character to a sound.

Incredibly easy to use, and the sound! Organic, tasteful and on point with what I’m looking for. And at the risk of sounding cliche, it sounds analog – I’m having a good hard look at what I need to keep out of the box now.
This is PURE MAGIC on bass guitar and bass instruments. Seriously no other plugin will sit your bass so perfectly in the mix. Level, polished, perfect. Well done!!! Fantastic on anything low end. This is 30 minutes into the demo and I HAVE TO HAVE IT!
Love this one, so much that I’ve ended getting the P44 Magnum. They complement each other very well. Saturation and clipper are amazing, very musical and rich sounding.
I wasn’t sure at first if this was going to be different enough from P42 to be worth it, but after using it awhile it definitely is. I especially love the clipper and mod circuit saturation. The only complaint I have if you can even call it one is the CPU usage with everything on. It sounds so good though that it’s totally worth it. Haven’t even mentioned the tone shaping options, which are unique from anything else I’ve heard. Overall wonderful plugin!
This has become a versatile and important part of my mixing tool kit. It has also largely taken the steam out of my exploration of DIY hardware summing or analog sweeteners. I use this largely on group busses, mix bus, and sometimes on individual channels to help sculpt not just the bottom and top, with the Oomph, Poomph and Sweet, but the sweet O2 control for dialing midrange presence or thickness. I also use the clipper quite a bit to delicately control peaks. It’s a seemingly simple tool but for me has so many ways to respectfully shape whatever I’m working on, like most Pulsar tools, it will only get better as I learn more ways to coordinate all the controls available.
