I was hankering after some new verb sounds and bought a pack of EMT plate IRs from Past to Future Reverbs for £10 , loaded into RV7000 in a combi with a Kuassa EVE eq. Sounds great and a cheap date.
I use PTFR all the time too. Get on their mailing list to get their $1 deal opportunities.

Re: ”Shut the fuck up and use the software. It's great.”

I will say, I traveled down the rabbit hole of a recent plugin acquisition syndrome/falling into marketing hype, buying a lot of stuff to use (on sale, but it adds up). Watching videos on aliasing, EQ cramping, "non-linearities", etc. made me think that what we had in Reason was not "good enough." Y...

Speaking of FXpansion, their channel comp can get all kinds of crunchy and nasty in colorful ways with the bias control. Great for bringing more character to drums and vocals.

Re: Flower Audio comeback

Quick shoutout to the 4DYNE. I've gotten more milage out of it than I had first expected to.

I've had to do some podcast editing recently, and the 4DYNE has been very helpful in maki...

Re: Pultec EQ emulations.... which one do you prefer?

I have the Red Rock and Blamsoft. Also have UA and IK VSTs. As far as curves go, see Selig's post, as the curves are going to vary somewhat based on which units they are referencing for their model. With regards to saturation/color a certain emulation imparts, that doesn't really attract me as it us...

Re: Red Rock Sound is having a sale

Red Rock makes great stuff. Very useful for mixing. The 33609 emulation is a nice different flavor for the master bus compared to the SSL. The SSL is preferred when I need something a bit snappier while remaining smooth. The 33609 is nice for music with less "pump" and this emulation can get pretty ...

Well, I was saving money to purchase the Kuassa version of the Pultec, but with the pack being on sale for $29, I ended up with the Blamsoft.

Re: Reason SSL vs Waves/ Others

I actually prefer Reason's "clean" version of the SSL. The amount of headroom available allows for some pretty drastic cuts and boosts, which I find useful. Granted, I started to learn to mix with "clean" EQ's, and I really honed my craft with the Reason SSL, so it's definitely a matter of preferenc...

Re: Reason 11 master buss compressor vs Waves SSL master buss compressor

My experience has been that if you have one decent emulation of the SSL Master Bus compressor, you're probably set. Yes they can differ slightly, but the difference is not enough to warrant spending money on another one (for the budget conscious). Sure, a pair of scissors with ceramic blades cut dif...
