UAD Fatso Alternative? PSP MixSaturator 2 + MixPressor?
It seem hard to get a good alternativ to the highly aclaimed Fatso from UAD. However, I reckon PSP Mixpack might work if you combine MixSaturator 2 with Mixpressor 2. The MixSaturator 2 has a Warmth knob + saturator, which in a way seem like what Fatso has. Don't really sure though what the "Tranny" on Fatso does... Whats your take in alternative solutions to Fatso?

ubk-fatso for VST? Only RTAS? Can't find UBK Fatson on their site...?

I don't think there's a UBK Fatso plugin; Carl was referring to the Kush UBK-1 compressor plugin.
And yes, its saturation flavor and compression action can sound a lot like the UAD Fatso plugin.
Cheers,

That's correct, from Recording Magazine:
"The KuSh Audio UBK Edition FATSO
Parallel to the plug-in release, audio engineer Gregory Scott of KuSh Audio, otherwise known by his online handle “UBK”, decided, “Wouldn’t it be great if the FATSO could do these other things...?”, so he created the UBK edition FATSO with Dave Derr's blessing."

Aha, guys, thanks for the tip!
What about the PSP suggestion? Anything close?

Sknote Distro.
It's modeled on the Distressor and the Fatso. If you only want to use the fatso turn down the threshold on the Distressor. It sounds great and it's cheap.

Sknote Distro:) I have the Sknote Double Compressor, which I just love: Didn't know they released Distro. Will most likely get that one.
Carl + Eddie, thanks for the tip!
UBK-1 seem awesome as well. Don't have the $£€ for that one now, even though it seem fantastic... In the future it might happen...

Keep in mind UBK-1 requires an iLok which turns alot of people off.
Still you could probably pick up a copy a kvr for a reasonable price.
BTW Dave Derr will be introducing a new plugin from his new Empirical Labs Digital.
Not sure it will be a Fatso, Distressor, hybrid. Could be announced at this years NAMM??
I'm sure it won't be inexpensive but I'm sure it will be excellent. At least something to check out to be sure.

Thanks Carl!
I've got iLok2 so I am all set if needed:)
Dave Derr, does he release under his own name, or is it via Kush or UAD?

No, Greg Scott is KUSH (UBK-1)
Dave Derr is Empirical Labs, he designed the Distressor & used to work for Eventide.
$199.99 for the UBK-1 is full retail. I was figuring you could pick up one pre-owned for around $70.00 or so?
He might have a Christmas holiday sale coming up. Last years Thanksgiving / BF he had a $99.00 sale.

Ok, thanks Carl!
Really like the sound of UBK-1

Boy am I glad UBK requires the iLok.
Thought I was having a bit of GAS!
iLok solved that problem.
plop, plop, fizz, fizz; oh what a relief....

I have the (an?) iLok, but it's a PITA!
I'm moving everything I can off it.
Something would really have to "rock my world" to put up with updating it ever again.
Just my nickel98's worth.
YMMV...

Here's hoping soft iLok takes over. EastWest did it. Softube did it. SoundToys did it. AIR MusicTech did it.
Would like to see Slate Digital do the same.

Ditto.... I've never owned a hardware iLok, but I do the soft iLock thing with AIR/Sonivox and UVI plugins and it's been fairly painless.
