I remember having the toughest of times trying to figure out which compressor to use on vocalist.... oh wait...only had one ...yeah..that was 35+ yrs ago... oh well... It was easy to decide then.
I think we've all been promoted into the studio millionaire spot, and are thinking about other things nowadays.
"State of the Art" verbs, delays, harmonizers.....oh yeah... Melodyne 4. Wondering if the music is better though.
oh well...probably get called "gramps" again. to be expected. :-D
to the OP.... years ago, I abandoned probably 100+ plugs...most free I imagine, and I don't miss them. I'm not making a living using Sonar, so having the "latest, greatest, doesn't apply to get business. The GAS is extremely fun, but in the end, you have a collection of something that can't even collect dust. Quite frankly, to ME, the Lexicon Pantheon was a killer reverb, and it's faded out as well. I finally deleted the Valhalla Demo off my hard drive. I'd rather spend $50 on the family or house or dawgs. I had threads recently that almost made me give in, but after a good supper, I usually "wake up".
Good thread.
EDIT....yes...I did buy the Boz Manic Compressor... not sure why...but I like it. It's easy to use and makes stuff loud! IT's fun to stay at least "1/2" current with technology. At least I stay up to date with Sonar Plat and my wife supports that.
