Goes well with Mogami Gold Studio.
This is on par with every other experience I've had with them not shipping $1000s in promotional items, ignoring my emails for days and weeks, and disabling plugin's I've paid for randomly and making me spend weeks jumping through hoops to get them back and more.
I just spent $3.400 and can't use my gear because you cant even properly tell me what connections your gear takes .. terrible terrible terrible
And once it’s installed, prepare to spend hours cleaning up your system. No joke, as part of the interface install they also install trial versions of EVERY SINGLE plugin in their library. On my system it amounted to 153 plugins! That’s more than double what I had before (I like to keep a pretty lean system to avoid decision paralysis).
Absolutely absurd. I spent over $3000 on this interface and now they’re cluttering up my system with a million plugins in an attempt to get even more money. And most of these plugins I would rarely use; mostly emulations of vintage compressors, eq’s and preamps. No delays, reverbs, etc so it’s not a diverse set.
My take: don’t buy the Heritage edition. Use the extra money to buy a proper bundle that covers a lot more bases (Soundtoys, Arturia FX, etc).
