I’ve gone completely off Melda, was getting loads of weird artefacts and unusual artificial noises in my mixes which I traced back to using MAutoStereoFix and MAutoAlign. Can’t trust any more of their plugins now

Syncpressor looks good, I like the idea of temp synced attack and release. But I’m same, don’t really need any of their plugins, just feel I have to at this price 😂

Tried this on Windows and it was very buggy, hopefully more solid now

What’s the spending threshold for getting PA vouchers? I’ve spent maybe $100 total and can’t find the info anywhere? Cheers!

Well. I am embarrassed to be on the wrong side of Andrew Scheps. Can't argue with an Album of the Year Grammy, which presumably used digital saturation.

But I'd counter with the observation that just because Andrew Scheps can make something sound good doesn't mean that you or I will produce comparable results.  I'd challenge anyone who routinely uses saturation to try taking it off a completed mix and  do a blind A/B between the clean and distorted versions. See which one you like better, or if you can even discern a difference.

I mean 99% of the time I prefer the mix with saturation on. It will make a mix cohesive and glued, that’s why we  do it, no? Distortion is something else but a gentle saturation to tame peaks on tracks and then on the 2 bus make my mixes sound polished. I mean compressors saturate too so it will be tough to do a mix without any saturation unless clean EQs and Comps throughout, but then where’s the fun in that 😬

never been that impressed with GSatPlus even though I really rate the dev. My current favs are Kelvin, P42 (i got free, not sure i'd pay the high price though) and the excellent Cassiopeia

Quick demo and this sounds very impressive. Not sure I can justify $99 rn but definitely on my want list

is there a way to get it cheaper at other plug-in providers?

This has been around for a long time, does it still stand up? Does it get updated ever?

Oh spanner in the works, was just about to purchase the stunning ARVerb, which I have been demoing for the last week. Jaw droppingly good room sound, but this is a very good price. Will demo for sure

Oh nice, I was planning on picking one up as never owned any of their plugins. These 3 seem the pick of the bunch, which best for a good alt rock crunch

SoundonSound used to host multitracks or they linked to a third party site.

A good place to ask for sources also.

Yeah the link is 3 posts above. It’s really good and actually was on there last night grabbing unmixed tracks for testing compressors, etc

Yeah yesterday when I first looked I swear it was €29 for me and I went back to buy a few hours later and it was €45. When I checked on my laptop 10 minutes after that it was €55. Weird teasing

Damn was really hoping for Smart Limit to go on sale over this weekend

Acustica have tamed with their BF in the last couple of years, used to get much bigger discounts. Viridian at €39 is tempting

Wow, definitely picking up one of those compressors

What does it do? Is it a synth?

Oh might have to get one of the SDX's, which is preferred out of the New York studios?? (I have Legacy of Rock so not sure if need, I might wait for one of the newer ones to go on sale)

Still never received a license for this and I answered the 3 questions. Any one else?

Brown was €39 in summer sale, which I bought and love. I have too many plugins so my new philosophy with Acustica is i’ll only buy when they hit the €39 mark 😆

If you received the Loyalty  email it was.

BTW for free the plugin is o.k.,,the eq is kind of average but the comps aren't bad (considering it's not their strong suit).

Sorry, didn’t read the other posts properly, realise it’s for over 50% only.

Free with purchase over 140. I will wait for an e-mail. Althought I'm only at the 20% level.

Yeah that's some serious caveat. OP post saying it will be dropped into our acccounts so thats not true then.

Also sale is weak compared to years gone by.  Acustica can tend to cut prices even further on Black Friday and even again Cyber Monday so best to stay patient I reckon

10th today and I’m not seeing anything about sales mentioned on site or Frost?

That starts Nov 15, but you won't get upgrade to Zebra3 for €30. 

 

Oh I see, found it all a bit confusing, need to stop skim reading these things. Sorry for the intrusion 😊

Huh, Zebra2 is now Zebra Legacy for €99 no?
