Any suggestions for the best gating and compression VST's to use for voice over work? I have purchased a DBX 286S pre-amp that I will press into service soon. But, until I have experimented extensively with that, would appreciate your advice on VST's.  

See the tip for Week 89 in Friday's Tip of the Week.

Thank you, Craig. Great advice, as always.

Izotope Dialog De-Noise is one of the most amazing plug-ins I've come across

Hello brian brock. Excellent advice. I had a bit of a play with a friend's RX4 and, yes, I agree, the Dialog De-Noise was amazing. The RX4 or RX5 suite are certainly on my radar as is T-Racks CS Grand. I wonder if either will do a better job than a hardware device such as the DBX 286S. In some ways, I hope not or I have wasted my money on the DBX unit!!!

VX 64 vintage channel has a great preset for voice-over or broadcast speech.
