artturner Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 I'm trying to figure out what to get with my second entry at the 149.99 level. Arc 3 plus mic also got me TRacks Deluxe under the mix on the go promotion. I've picked up Comprexxor and Space Delay. But now I can't decide. For example, why would I use Master EQ 432 if I have Pro Q 3? Why would I use Stealth Limiter if I have Pro L 2? Not being argumentative, just genuinely curious. Just don't know if I should go with something that alters the sound in interesting ways (like the TRacks Leslie) or get mastering gear that duplicates things I own. Also thinking about the Tape Machines, but I'm pretty happy with Acustica Taupe for that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have the FabFilter total bundle and believe it’s the absolute best but I also love having hardware emulations for color. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't have Pro L so can't really comment on how it compares. Quote "dithering can be selected via Stealth, down to 24 or 16 bits. Unity Gain monitoring is selectable, as is Infrasonic Filter (a 22 Hz high-pass filter, removing rumble) and even four modes of saturation.Stealth’s Tight mode offers no coloration;Balanced seems to very lightly smooth out high frequencies and transients; Harmonics 1 brings in a bit of subtle saturation; and Harmonics2 continues that saturation with just a touch of grind and grit." this fellows video on what he does with Master EQ helped me learn a lot on what it can do. does a little talking -- but knows his stuff for sure. when I have time i will try to remaster some old live recordings i have with it. I just cant be arsed to turn on 20 year old macbooks. Edited August 25, 2021 by telecode 101 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you log a ticket please let me know the ticket number and I'll see what I can do to give it a little nudge though. They helped me out. Made it clear that is was an exception. Got my missing files, joined them together with what I had and all works again. Thanks! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isn't it nice that your plate is full I look at all the IK goodies and wouldn't even know how to use most of the Amplitube or TRacks. So for me I don't want to go overboard on them. I have Amplitube now and T-Racks and T-Racks SE for my freebies. That should give me enough to mess around with Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I started out with just AmpliTube 4 and T-RackS 5 and a handful of AmpliTube collections. Now, with this GB, I've picked up their new products (AmpiTube 5, MixBox), completed the AmpliTube collections, and am working on the T-RackS modules. And since I have SampleTank 4 MAX from a keyboard promotion, I'll probably get a $49.99 library to finish off my SampleTank collections. When you're missing just a couple of items, there's a strong urge to complete the collection. So, check back in a year or two and see if you're not more invested.

That was money well spent as I like and use the keyboard. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You do realize the Hammond is multi tier 😁 Being serious I'm thinking a Arturia MIDI keyboard might be the way for me to go. I bought an Arturia Keylab 61 MkII this year. Had to back order it for 2 months from Sweetwater. Out of stock everywhere! Solid build quality, heavy metal frame, and feels a lot like like the old rompler workstations that were common in the 90's... unlike most of the common cheap plastic controllers available these days (and I have a few). I plan to use this as my main controller. It's not cheap, though! Probably the best alternative to a Native Instruments Komplete Kontrol S series. No regrets! But I would avoid the cheap Keylab Essential series. For one thing, no aftertouch... 😧 Edited August 25, 2021 by abacab 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
