That bit about extra CPU usage seems to hold true. I got Nolly and Darkglass earlier in the year and part of me wishes I'd have gotten something cheaper and was easier on the CPU. They do sound really nice, though.Reviving this post as AuroraDSP is having a big sale. Mammoth (which I've had my eye on as I want a nice solution to the metal bass sim in addition to my more prog style) is only $24.99!
Is there any reason to try anything else for metal bass given this deal? Parallax will be ~$60 for BF, and my impression of NDSP these days is that you pay extra for the extra CPU use (...). There's also the Bogren Ampknob. Anything else released recently worth a try?
Mammoth seemed nice when I tried it! It has a B7K in there as one of the drive types as well. Bogren's Bassknob is also really nice!
Since I have NDSP's B7K already, I'm considering grabbing Bassknob to put in front of it. While I like the B7K's distortion, I find that it lacks a lot of power on its own, and putting it through Bassknob's clean channel seemed to add a lot of that "oomph" I was wanting when I demo'd it.
