They fit perfectly in the mix with very very little to no external processing.

You can find almost any preset for ANY style of music.

I pray you’re not using headphones unless you like that ringing sound that soon follows high SPL blunt force trauma.Īnd that’s really a shame because the presets are quite remarkable. Changing presets is like playing Russian Roulette with your ears because you never know what horrible pops, clicks, or just god-awful noises you will get at preset changes. This program is $249.00, which you would think for that price you would be getting a better quality, stable virtual instrument but alas as a plug-in, it performs sub-par at times. I’m using this program as a virtual instrument in Pro Tools 9 so this review mainly focuses on it as a plug-in and not the stand-alone version BUT from what I’ve used on the stand alone version, it is extremely stable with the exception of the noise in the preset changing which I will address later in the review. I’ve owned Analog Factory for a while now so when Analog Laboratory came out, I had high hopes. There are several bugs in the system that can be a bit tricky to work with. I’ve been waiting to do this review for a while to give Arturia ample time to get this program on the road.
