what are you experiences since then? Did soundtoys replaced the AH or vice versa?
I´m a heavy soundtoys user with Echoboy, Phasemistress and Pan-Man. Lately I also discovered the joy of putting Deceptiator on the master bus and using the 2nd mode with 20-30% wet. Bam. It smoothes out some peaks and add some beef. Sometimes I just have to tame the top end a bit with the high-cut filter.
So questions is … does the AH sound that different?
