«  better and better »

no problem install version 1.3 to 2.0.
I even managed to keep my preset from 1.3 but you can not use all functions.
Manual (1.3) is clear and very useful.
measures are simple to make (do not forget to put the phantom power).

SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE

The software works very well and does not take a lot of resource.
I use RME babyface and a Fostex PM2 MKII Sub + Fostex with workpiece (more reverb).

OVERALL OPINION

I use it for 1 month.
I did the upgrade from 1 to 2 for 80 euros approx.
I could make a comparison because the V1/V2 V1 is staying on my PC with preset usable on 2 versions: V2 is softer on the treble.

Then I did the steps to V2 and then changes everything ....
More accuracy and less aggressive.
Big difference especially for User Sub: The bass is better calculated (20hz-20khz while the V1 down to 40hz max.) More Problems rumble.
Simulation of baffles (car, TV etc ...) which can be useful contrôle.mais good I use it.


A nice change of CRA buy without hesitation a big help to the mix (the pieces go well everywhere)

I redo the choice without problem.
