Waves Abbey Road TG Mastering Chain

Currently on offer for $39. I don't buy a lot of plugins but this is really impressive. Instant mastering goodness and loads of virtual knobs to twiddle if you feel so inclined. Works on individual tracks and busses/master bus. Hopefully I won't get too ripped off on the credit card exchange rate!

I recently bought abbey road chamber (for 29euros, on sale) I used it in this song

(I'll be bak, beatles cover https://songcrafters.org/forum/index.php?topic=28186.0

I admit that I'm not entirely convinced by its usefulness I think we can do as well with good reverb and delay plugins (free!)
For abbey road many settings possible but very rudimentary instructions (in French)
Moreover like all Wave plug-ins it consumes a lot of CPU and is not very compatible with a small installation
so not very convinced... if you have settings that give you satisfaction for voice processing, please let me know...

sorry, Chapperz66
I had misread... it's not the same plug-in...
for me, it's "abbey road chamber", not "TG mastering chain"

I bought it yesterday. I've only used it once so far and then on a hand held mic, room recording of a single take of a song. (A murder ballad that needs to be re-recorded.) But I hit a preset and it instantly made the track sound better, if a little harsh at the top end. Too many knobs to be able to.. erm.. 'master' it in one setting, but I'm looking forward to playing with it soon.
