Hi.

ATM the Terminal Master Effect is on sale.
From 149.00€ lovered to 43.00€. Pretty cool. And generous.

I am interested in this RE to buy it.
But before that i would kindly ask you, people here at Reason Talk forum:
1) is this RE really that good as they are advertising it in their video (look at link)
2) is this RE better or same as good or worser that this bundle: Mix & Mastering Rig 4 - ATM at original price 299.00€

Is it worth buying Terminal Master Effect RE or should I wait for any possible discount on Mix & Mastering Rig 4 bundle?
Which purchase is better? - not talking in money value but in sound value.

The effects are very good IMO. I wouln't use it as my mastering tool , and mainly interested in the MB distortion and the saturation mudules. For me its a good all in one effects rack with its own built in LFO for modulations. I have it installed and very happy with it.

I haven't tried it so I can't comment on the quality of its effects. Perhaps it's an awesome RE.
I just think the way it's put together is a bit all over the place for my personal taste. It would probably would be easier marketing wise to focus on either mastering effects or creative effects. I mean when I think mastering I don't exactly think of phasers, lfo, chorus etc.
And also whenever I reach for something, I tend to be very specific. If I want a compressor, I'll reach for a compressor. If I want a phaser, I'll reach for a phaser. The thought of opening up a huge blob with 18 different effects included just seems strange to me. Personally I'd prefer to have every effect as a seperate RE, like Kilohearts have done. But that's just me.

Would be interesting to hear from more people that own it and use it.
