Most professional mastering engineers I know of prefer simple but very high
quality tools (the most important being a good pair of ears).

I've never used Samplitude, so I can't comment on the quality of its
results, but it looks like the antithesis of the kind of tools I like
to work with. The very absence of anything apart from the bare essentials
is one of JAMin's most desirable features. The fact that it produces
good sounding masters, for which my customers are happy to pay, says all
I need to know about JAMin's suitability for professional use.
