APD.... 🤔

@MusicMan IMHO, there are plenty of monoizing plugins and it's pretty straightforward, but Stereoizer is something special. I barely use the widening feature, like maybe 5-10%. It uses both frequencies and/or time to do its thing , and it just adds a 3D depth which I haven't found in other "widener" plugins. Demo it and see what you think. It a good one!

Stereo Placer Elements is my least favorite of the three and I don't really feel the need to upgrade it. Monofilter (full version) is pretty useful. Stereoizer (full version) is awesome and sounds really great. My only knock on them is that I have to read the manual each time I use them because the UI is so unintuitive - at least for me. Of the three though, Sterioizer is my favorite and my go-to. I've gotten away from "wideners", but Stereoizer gives a very nice dimension and depth that I haven't heard in other similar type plugins. IIRC, licensing is machine based with an iLok option and you only get 1 seat.

Yep, works now. It's there in Custom Shop. Thanks IK!

Ah ha! You have to hover over the "Authorize" button on Amplitude5 in My Products and click RE-Authorize! --- edit --- Nope, that didn't unlock it in Custom Shop either... 🙄

Didn't work here either...

That's when I bought in. They were the first Dev I went "all-in". It's sad to see they haven't done anything new since Little Plate. (?) They went from a premier Dev to an afterthought. Such a promising company and great plugins, it's just too bad. I wonder if they lost their main developer or some other internal shake-up happened? (Disclaimer: pure WAG conjecture!) Anyway, hopefully the new website in indicative of new things coming from SoundToys.

I stopped reading this thread a while ago, but every time I see it I keep thinking of this comment: GarageBand and iRig on an iPad was my re-entry into recording about 8 years ago. It doesn't get much simpler than that. (Unless you want to export the tracks!) I think Presonus is set up very well to do something like that, only better IMHO.

🤔 Would it work?? Do you get to keep them after? That's brilliant!

Any discount coupons to be had?

Anyone know why Softube no longer accepts PayPal for U.S. customers? To bad, I was all set to buy it too. Just as well, I've got a whole pile of Tape plugins from the IK Group buy now anyway... 😁

Yes, I did and I'm full up! I've been eying the Tape plugins and Fame and few others for a while and this was a great way to pick up them up and was totally worth it. I just wish there was something to do with extra picks... 🤔

It was too good to pass up. Soooo, are we just plain out of luck if we have no more T-Racks we can pick? 🤔

@MusicMan Unfortunately, you can only use your referral code on a first purchase...

I don't know why the S1 Splitter never makes those features lists. It's got to be the most underrated feature ever...

Back in 2015, I demoed a bunch of DAWs and my short list was down to Cakewalk and Studio One. I found a deal for S1 Producer and went with that and haven't looked back. It wasn't really anything specific. I found I kept comparing any other DAW I demoed to S1. The workflow was intuitive and worked for me.

Looks awesome! Thanks Boz!

Anyone use these? Open back HP are on my someday list. All I ever see/read about are the Senheiser HD650s ($$!)

@Peter - IK Multimedia Now can you work your magic and get them to make the Amplitude plugins as separate VSTs? 😁

I was going to write the same thing...

Let's see what VirusTotal has to say about it. It's big so it may take awhile. -- edit -- I'm back. A handful of sites couldn't process the file, but the ones that did all came up clean...

I've been watching Pi & Phi for years but it has always been too expensive. But this is as low as I've seen it, but still not no-brainer territory. I love the idea of the whole phase aligning the different frequency ranges for clarity (I think that's what it does) but it was just too subtle for me back when I demoed it. I would love to hear someone's input on this one too.

Dang it! PSP Old Timer - bought and installed. A couple of years ago I was trying to thin out plugins and was thinking PSP was one Dev I could do without. A few sub $20 no-brainers later, and I'm collecting them again. My two most used are the Twin-L and the 2445 EMT reverb.
