If so, what's your favorite "go to" plugs?”
Of course, we are not going to discuss the “elephant in the room”. Lol!
So back on topic then, at least for 1 post
I use PA:
-
Metric AB. There is no comparison for me, and without a doubt my most favorite PA plugin.
-
SSL-4000E. Sometimes like it better than the UAD version, except on vocals where I like the UAD more.
-
SSL-9000J. Love this on piano
-
bx_digital V3. Great for the widener, solo maker and M/S
-
BlackBox HG-2. Sometimes like it more than Decapitator or Vulture Culture.
-
bx_control. Quick stereo tools and nice widener.
-
bx_refinement. Can be your secret weapon in de-harshing.
-
BAX EQ. Man, the high shelve on this thing!
-
SPL Transient Designer. A classic.
Used, but dropped due lack of native silicon support:
-
Lindell 80. One of the best sounding Neve channels around.
-
Lindell 50. Do have the UAD vision as well, but the UI of this one is nicer.
Recently also got the AMEK 9099, but did not spend enough time with it to have an opinion.
The rest I do not use. Not because the plugins are bad or worse than others, but because I like the way the ones I'm used to work and sound. So no need to switch.
