    How would you rate Cool/Auditions stock plugins?

    How would you rate Cool/Auditions stock plugins when compared to outboard gear? Example.. The compressor and limiter is it better or worse than a 3630? How would you compare the chorus to other chorus modules out there? Reverb. Better or worse than an Alesis module?

    I am going to trade a piece of gear... Is it worth it?

    I was offered a Lexicon 100 or 110 (can't remember) that I have used before (barrowed) for my Alesis MidiVerb 4. Is it worth it or should I stick with the Alesis? I know there is a Lexicon thread on the board right now but I didn't want to hijack it.

    I am thinking of buying the

    Auralex room treaments.. Are the bass traps as good as the ones you could build yourself? Does this system work for a small room? Something like this http://www.zzounds.com/a--2676837/item--AURPROPCG Also, do you have to glue this to the wall? I may want to take it with me to my next house.

    Is this common practice?

    Record vocals or drums or something. Then run that track back out to an outboard reverb or delay (100% full mix) and record the reverb only on another track while preserving the original? So you would have the vocal track then another track with the reverb or delay.. If this is a common thing...
