I actually was fiddling with the hardware version of VOG at a friend's mix room the other day. It sounds like exactly what it is, a clean resonant high pass filter. It has decent internal headroom for a cheap analog circuit, but it had no discernable character or other interesting qualities to me. I used it on a close mic snare, kick, and toms subgroup to add a bit of uniform bass that would trigger the compressor more consistently, and it did what one would expect. For an analog mix filter it's reasonably well tuned and simple to control, but I'd rather use the free Melda MBandpass for this kind of simple trick and really I'd rather have a full digital eq so that I could tackle any other frequency changes at the same time. I definitely would never pay hardware or UA software prices for this. I'd hope that the digital version, at least, uses like no resources to run.
