Soundtoys ~$499 perpetual vs Eventide ~$599 perpetual
Best feature
Decapitator and PrimalTap are among the most creatively inspiring saturation and delay tools ever made
The catch
No dynamics processors — must be paired with another bundle for a complete signal chain
Best feature
H910/H949 harmonizer and SP2016 reverb emulations are forensically accurate recreations of studio hardware legends
The catch
Creative routing and modulation options are deep but poorly documented for new users
Soundtoys for creative sound design and vibe; Eventide for engineers who know what the hardware sounds like and won't accept less.
