Not yet. I'm letting that one sit until I'm in my new studio room. I'm actually going to completely rerecord it at some point anyway but I do want to try out some different stuff with the current version for practice. Cheers, man.

Hey if it's buyer's remorse we're talking about Beepster then get this: I drunk-purchased the PC2A leveler without realizing that I already have Native Instrument's VC2A as part of Komplete Ultimate. And I mean they're essentially the same thing. I really didn't think I'd ever be the kind of person who would buy a plugin without realizing that I didn't need it, but I guess there's a first time for everything.

I'm digging the Concrete Limiter. Pretty handy for single instrument tracks.

I almost pulled the trigger on the PC4K Gate/Expander and the PC4K Channel Compressor last night.
Definitely glad I went to bed instead, saved me 50%!

LoL -
 
Anybody have any opinions on them, I use IK T Racks mostly (I have the full package), is it worth splashing out on the PC4K gate/expander and/or channel compressor.  There is a lot written about the concrete limiter but i have seen less ablut these two.

Yeah, I was waiting for CL to go on sale, so I'll snag it too.
I was going to get the S-type comp but I noticed I already had it .

I went from 8.5.3 -> X1 (base) -> X2  ...I didn't think the S-comp came with X1 base (or X2 for that matter).
Since the U-type fires up in the channel on a new track - when you go and add another module, S-type doesn't show up.
(that's understandable since ~normally~ you don't have 2 comps on a track).

However, when I delete the U-type from the PC, then add a module, both U & S channel comps show up as options.
...as does the Replace Module  - can swap them out.


Obviously I missed something as I was enjoying the scenery whilst on the upgrade path....

The S-Type Compressor that comes with X1 and X2 is the S-Type Bus Compressor. The one on sale is different. It is the S-Type Channel Compressor. It was included for a little while as a bonus with the X1 Production Suite.

I have been waiting for this moment for a long time.

I really like the Concrete Limiter and use it quite frequently on Bass and Drums or other tracks to tame rogue peaks.

The only module I'm missing is the Gate/Expander.  Don't know that I would use it much.  Maybe if they have a BIG sale on it.....

I'm not a fan of the s-type compressor, i use the gate/expander frequently. The PC2a gets use from me. Out of the bunch the s-type comp is my least used.
