In mastering work I often do (unscientific) blind testing where I'll A/B two files or settings (with my eyes closed) and see which I choose as better. I did this with R8Brain PRO for some 48KHz to 44.1KHz conversions and easily and consistantly chose R8Brain over Wavelab's Crystal Resampler. Just last night I stepped further to compare the R8Brain dither to UV22HR and was surprised to find I chose R8Brain Pro hands-down over UV22HR... At least on that track I was working on, it was notably less cloudy. You are making me look good... I mean sound good! Money very well spent.

I'm a newbie to digital manipulation. I took analog tape music in 4 channels (Crown CX844) recorded years ago. These were put onto Alesis HD24XR at 88.2/24 bit for archiving. We decided to burn the 4 channels onto CDs using SURCODE to encode to the fronts and surrounds. I had to convert sample rate. I played with the free version of r8brain. Then decided, after input from Aleksey and Neil to get pro. Very glad I did. So easy to use. Actually easier than free version.

This last week, I upgraded one of my computers from Windows XP to Win7. I did this by completely reformatting my partition, and installing everything from scratch.
When it came time to install and authorize all my Voxengo plugs, I was delighted to find something no regular user encounters on a day to day basis - that there is a means to authorize all my licensed Voxengos in a single action. That is some very clever and very considerate programming, and greatly appreciated by someone faced with the tedious task of installing and authorizing dozens of programs and plugins.
Voxengo plugins are an integral part of my working process now, and just about everything I turn out has been touched in one way or another by your work. Thanks very much for the great sound, and the little touches that are the product of great programming.
