(and now I just wait for the obligatory anti-Waves comment from Bitflipper ;-))

The thing with Waves older plugins is that they still work. I've seen it for $15.00 in the past which is a decent price for what it is.
In the meantime try this-

Don't forget Channel Tools too..

Q: What does S1 offer that Channel Tools doesn't? 
A: Something called a "shuffler" effect.
 
Q: What is the "shuffler" effect?
A: Waves won't actually come out and say.
 
But I'll take a guess...there is a technique known as the Blumlein Shuffle (a ground-breaking technique only known about since the 1930's). Also known as spatial equalization, you can achieve it with a graphic equalizer plugin.

Think I have all the waves stuff I need. I would like the SSL bundle but even the last month when it's been on sale the price is just.. Wrong.

The responsiveness and the gui for most of their plugs just feels ancient compared to Companies like FabFilter.

S1 is a great tool for "psycho-acoustic" widening and skewing....it's a very handy tool...
Surprisingly, most of the stuff in the NPP are quite useful in the proper situation, even though they are "older" plugins...

The Waves API, SLL, and Neve, are probably the best "console" emulations out there...and the interfaces look just like what they
are....with X2 and VCC, you only get "very limited" functionality..while, with the Waves you get the Channel Strip EQ, and the Buss Compressors...
which makes a HUGE difference....and is REALLY what is required to "emulate" a console.

Granted, the "older" plugin interfaces could use an update, but they are still very good and useful plugins...
The "Renaissance" series is still widely used by the Pros...

While others may have really nice "GUI'S"  I, personally, am not buying a GUI, I'm buying a "tool" and what get's me there 
the BEST and EASIEST way....so, I guess that's a matter of preference...while an awesome GUI (like Sonar has) is great,
if it "lacks" what you "need" then it means nothing...it's just another "pretty face".
 
I, personally love my Waves plugins....and I find the S1 very very useful...but that's just me...

i use rennaissance on a regular basis....
rcomp, rverb being the most used....
 
i like maxxbass, and that's pretty old....
even the venerable ole L1 gets a LOT of use on my mixes.....
 
almost never use S1, really never come across a scenario that i would want or need it
 
 
i use L2 for mastering, along with a few choice others
 
 
 

The Renn collection is just plain good all around.
I'll use S1 on Room & OH to center & make the field a bit less. I'll adjust the balance of the snare on those 2 also which is typically a bit left.
 

Does AD go lower than Waves store? Link please?

All shall be made clear tomorrow my children, get a good night's sleep...and rise early...fresh and ready to purchase

still nothing in my email...only thing missing as a mercury ownzer is SSL bundle ...334 now , it will become 284 ...still kinda high for a SSL duende owner but i dig the eq alone..

I dont care about the gui much as long as the tool is good of course. What I meant wasnt really the graphics but moving controls etc just feels a bit sluggish. I've always had weird issues until I moved to Windows 8 with Waves knobs and sliders moving in a studdering fashion.

Pardon my english, not my native language.

Looks like their C4 finally is on sale.
$69. 
 
There were few plug-ins left on my list at the beginning of 2013, mainly Bass Rider and C4. I grabbed Bass Rider for cheap in a recent sale. I guess it's time to cross one more item on my to-get list. Never thought I'd get for under $20, though... :P

I got the REDD and I have to admit that I use it more than I thought I would. I really like that one.
 
I still havent gotten my voucher. But if I get it I will probably go for either the C4 or possibly the JJP Analog Legends since getting both the PuigChild and PuicTec for 99 bucks seems like a steal to me. But do I need it? Hardly. ;-) I really should save my money for the FabFilter stuff instead. They use to have summer sales as well, dont they?

Thanks olpal. I don't get out much. :-)
