That's exactly how it should be, Vicious =) You can put it on a mix and it makes subtle changes to the top and bottom end and you need less eq to get stuff done... if you want that kind of "tape'ish" sound that is. If you combine VTM with VCC (whch you will also barely hear) and VBC (which you will also barely hear) it all just sums up and gives your mix more space, more excitement. But I´m not telling you to buy more plugins. Graham from The Recording Revolution just nailed it in his latest VMR/VCC-video:
"It's not for someone who doesn't know how to get a great mix allready with stock plugins. If you don't know how to mix you probably won't notice much of a difference and you'll be hoping that it would do something that it can't do. It can't mix your song for you."
