Testing of the AAX beta is already underway and it's working pretty well so far. I've come across a couple of small but easily repaired tweaks, otherwise all good.

RE: Waves vs. Duende, I tested both but Duende took an early lead and only gained traction over time. It's a superior product and it was an easy choice. Anyway, the gems of Duende come in the X-series. X-comp, X-eq, etc. are simply outstanding. Based upon extremely expensive (and incredible sounding) algorithms. They've been my A-Team plugins since I first acquired them.
