Great plugin and very authentic. Works standalone, easy to use (compared to hardware) and the license is only a personal serial number so no ilok/online hassles. Warning to legacy xp users,this version will not work in windows xp,even though they say it does (you’ll need to search online for an earlier version). Awesome deal!
I still have a CZ-101 that I use on occasion. I recently downloaded a copy of the virtual CZ and can confirm that the software sounds remarkably close to the CZ-101. Very handy that the software is also an editor for the CZ. At that price it’s a real no brainer. GET IT before the sale ends !
