If it's used tastefully and not abused, there are worse things you can do to a mix.

Keep in mind that if a client will be sending out their recordings to be mastered somwhere, keep the BBE turned off. Ask the client first.

That all being said, you obviously haven't had the pleasure of my custom BBE Digital Sonic Decrapulator / Stereo Stupidifier (image file attached or click below)...

If you like Massive Master's BBE Digital Sonic Decrapulator / Stereo Stupidifier , then you'll love the PSUEDOACOUSTIC INFECTOR made by Rane (I invested some of my money in this project ).

You could find another way to spend your money.

The Land of Moderators, because those who wish to be mediators between two resolute thinkers are marked as mediocre: they lack eyes to see the unparalleled; seeing things as similar and making them the same is the mark of weak eyes.

what do those things really do anyways?

is it just adding low end and high end EQ?

is it adding harmonics?

compression?

what the heck is inside that box!
i noticed they have ones specifically for guit and bass

i'm sure they are a waste of money, but people buy them!

adding low end and high end EQ
