Roland VS Mastering Toolkit Quality?

[Boray]

Hello!

I have a Roland VS1680 and I am wondering if it's any idea to get an external mastering effect, like a Behringer Ultradyne Pro 9024, or if the internal "Mastering Toolkit" is just as good. I mean - The Mastering Toolkit uses up a whole effects card that is more expensive than that Behringer effect... Anyone have any experiance with this?

Kind Regards,

The effects card is definitely worth the price for all of the additional features and effects it provides.

Can't comment on the Ultradyne. I have the Finalizer Plus and it works fine for its purposes along with my (very old) VS-880.

Also, I've heard the compression on the Roland effects card arguably isn't the best. I can't comment on the actual mastering feature.
