OpenZeppelin Contracts vs. Waves

Waves is well suited to "prosumer" scenarios as well as professional mixing businesses. To implement any number of plugins can become cost-prohibitive to many users, but given a proper budget, Waves can be irreplaceable. Users who have limited experience or knowledge of advanced mixing techniques have the potential to get lost in the "sea" of options, not knowing how to begin.

I use Waves in tandem with these products I listed. The other products, like the Fabfilter Bundle and the iZotope ozone bundle, weren't listed, so I can't really do a proper comparison. However, against the Fabfilter plugins, the only thing Waves lacks is as good of an EQ. As far as the iZotope bundle is concerned, the only thing it does better than Waves is the preset drum isolation stuff. That's pretty incredible. But mostly, the Izotope bundle are preset. I like my plugins to be tailored to exactly how I want to use them. Waves allows me to do that.

• It gave me the ability to tune vocals without them sounding "autotuned," therefore, making the singer feel like they sang it that much better. Just a confidence booster.
• It gives me the opportunity for simply mastering a song. If a customer only wants a song mastered, I can effectively do that.
• It is a bit costly when you first purchase, but it makes up for itself when you need it. I feel like it was money well spent.
