I know many people love the effects on waves, but I was wondering how they compared to the plug-ins included with cakewalk's sonar.

Thanks in advance,

Haven't heard much about Sonar plug-ins, but Home Recording magazing did a review of Waves Gold Bundle (which includes the plug-ins included in the Power Pack) in December 2000. To sum up the review by David Darlington:

"The first thing I have to tell you about Waves versus the competition is that Waves sounds better than just about every Mac based plug-in I've worked with (and that says a lot). This is not just my opinion but the consensus of almost every engineer, DAW operator, programmer, and gearhead that I know."

Here are some reviews from ProRec.com

Of course, if you already have Sonar and its plug-ins (which I'm sure are good), it might be hard to justify the extra $ for waves.
