The Waves Ltd. Kramer Effects Channel is a delay and other effects plug-in that comes as part of the Waves Kramer Collection of plug-ins, which was designed by famed engineer Eddie Kramer and Waves in tandem. I installed the plug-in on my system at home along with the other Kramer plug-ins and the full suite of Waves plug-ins. The process was simple and pain free, and should be the same for you as long as you have proper compatibility happening. Learning the plug-in is also not difficult. For delay, it's got two different modes - a 'Z-Slap' and 'H-Slap.' The H-Slap setting is short tape delay emulation mixed with a bit of reverb, while the Z-Slap setting is a longer delay mixed with some reverb. It then has parameters for sensitivity, delay amount, delay mix, size (for reverb), brightness, reverb mix, and output. I found it easy enough to figure out that I didn't need a manual.
SUITABILITY/PERFORMANCE
The system that I've been running the Waves Ltd. Kramer Effects Channel on is my home studio. I've also used it a bit at the studio where I work, which is Pro Tools HD based, but at home I'm running Pro Tools LE 8 with a Digi 002R audio interface. I've got a Mac Book Pro that has a 2.2 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and 4 GB of RAM, which has been enough for me to run this plug-in and the other in the Kramer Collection adequately.
OVERALL OPINION
Overall, I'm a big fan of the Waves Ltd. Kramer Effects Channel as I find it to be a versatile effects plug-in that is useful under a variety of circumstances. The thing that I've been using it for mostly has been vocals, as the different delays on here are really great for getting your vocal a little wet. I love the H-Slap setting, as it's absolutely perfect for getting some slapback delay on your vocal. I guess it's not really an all in one effects channel as is the case with the Waves Chris Lord-Alge Effects plug-in, but this one is great at the specific things that it does. It's also a lot warmer sounding than the CLA Effects plug, not to exclusively compare the two of them. The Kramer Collection of plug-ins is in general worth knowing about as it's really a great bundle that is actually pretty affordable. You need to get the bundle in order to get this plug-in, so definitely check out the others in the bundle if interested in this one!
