"There's better."
Verified Customer

Sound
Sounds alright, however I'm generally going to my other plugins for my sounds unless I have to use these.
Features
Gives you everything you'd potentially need for computer based audio production.
Ease of Use
No harder than any other music software, probably easier.
Quality
IK plugins are the buggiest of my entire library. Quite the headache getting them setup. They're constantly asking me to re-register. There are like 13 cd keys that come with this so be ready to waste some valuable time. Sometimes the plugins block the audio meaning I have to remove the plugin to get any sound from the track again, so much for enhancing the sound. Finally, these programs are infamous for forgetting where the instrument files are, and the support instructions posted on the website don't work to remedy the issue.
Value
A decent bang for the buck, but its still not worth it in my opinion with all the issues I have with it.
Manufacturer Support
Pretty quick, but I'm contacting these guys a lot more than I'd like to.
