    I love bx_refinement. It's very very easy to use and can take any overcooked mix element and smooth it out so it sits nicely and becomes very listenable. I can have fat distorted guitars that don't wear my ears down and sound so much more appealing. And when the listener reaches for the volume knob to turn stuff up, as opposed to turning down something that is a little harsh ... then you know you've done your job properly.

    I have often looked for a plug-in that softens harshness in a track. bx_refinement does it better than anything else without changing the overall character of the music.

    This plugin is amazing! Really! That was a love from the first try. It saves me so much time EQing harsh frequencies. I can't live without it now.

    If you once get it you won't miss it. Glues perfectly like honey, deals with frequencies about 5k and has creative pumping effect for something like pads.
  • Great analog sound in no-time!

    The bx_refinement can do wonders for you if you know how to use it. It's not something that you will be able to hear instantly on all instruments, especially if you have no access to a good listening environment. But I spent some time with it, and slowly, slowly, I opened up my ears to the magic of this plugin.
    So what does it do? Basically, you can use it on mixes or tracks that have so called harshness in them which you find it hard to remove with an EQ. I use it a lot on distorted waves of sound. I enjoy spectrally transforming a piano into a wall of sound with freeze effects and different distortion plugins. These sounds can often sound thin and harsh, and bx_refinement can fix that, with the Damping know and the Saturation knob. And boost the Presence if you think the result is too dull!
    I have started using it in my master tracks as well, to warm them up. Try for example to use a lot of damping, but perhaps only set the Mix to 20% wet, so that 80% of the original signal passes through unaffected. This approach has given me some nice results!
    Definitely try this plugin, and give it some time. Now, I use it on up to 50% of my tracks in a mix! It's a great tool, easy to use, with some very pleasing results.

    This plugin is a big time saver in helping to remove problematic frequencies. The bx_refinement plugin and the bx_digital v3 are my secret weapons.

    This plugin is what I would call magic. The learning curve is weird since you don't have the usual controls, but once you get the hang of it, you won't stop using it. I use it mainly for mastering, mix buss and electric guitar buss. It takes care of all the unwanted artifacts that mud your mix in a subtle and enhancing way. The saturation and presence controls give the extra value and they always seem to help whatever material you pass through the plugin.
    Great plugin, and it definitely was a good purchase decision. Thanks BX.

    another plugin I demoed and waited patiently to purchase on sale. this plugin is amazing. I'm in love. I finally got the chance to use it to its fullest extent during some mastering for a client and I want to have this things babies. it does take a little to learn how it works but not a great deal. it basically gives you complete control over the top end of a track, reduce harshness, increase presence, soften/saturate details or dynamicly add detail. you can bring focus to wishy washy tracks and get the punch and clarity of your dreams.
