PavlovsCat 3,085 Posted November 21, 2022 (edited) If there's one recommendation I get for effects plugins from audio pro friends over and over, it's to buy FabFilter plugins. But they're certainly not cheap. Edited November 21, 2022 by PavlovsCat Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ralfrobert 112 Posted November 21, 2022 Not cheap, but a good investment. If you already have some products, you get discounts in your account. And if you don't like them any more, they are easy to resell. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But they're certainly not cheap. I held off on FabFilter for years because of the expense. At the time I was pretty broke. Well, I still am tbh, but I've got my priorities straight now. A forum legend by the name of Billy Arnell (bamidi, sadly now deceased) went out and unexpectedly bought me a copy of Pro-Q as a gift. That's all it took for me to become a FF fan. Now I've got nearly the entire collection. And yup, they really are that good. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Fleer 9,995 Posted November 21, 2022 Get at least the Essentials bundle, or the Creative one. Heck, at 25% off, get them all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I realize you made that comment tongue-in-cheek, because nobody wants to think that the money they've already spent was for naught. But a more positive spin would be "I've got everything I need already, thank you". And I couldn't agree more. Everybody already does, and that's the truth. Anyone who thinks spending $$$$ to have "the best" of everything will make them a better mixer is missing the point. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bitflipper 2,925 Posted November 21, 2022 I dunno, Larry. The loyalty discounts are year-round and pretty good. I just checked, and any remaining FF plugins I don't have would be discounted 59-74%. I think they still do the 10% off for first-time customers, too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
whoisp 273 Posted November 23, 2022 I don't own one of FF plugins, ive never been a plugin fan and tried to stick to craft with stock and free But then i consider some plugins are essential like good keys/synth plugin, i bought melodyne, Ozone 9 elements which i should upgrade to 10 advance but £265 English notes is steep when i could maybe spoend that type of money more wise with a few good plugins. I.E. Scheps Omni Channel is $29 from $150 which is tempting and great for vocals apparently. Everyone raves on about Decapitator which is £44 from £159. i always need maybe a good comp with side chain lol The thing i could maybe justify buying at the moment is some type of noise gate filter that gets rid of the odd acoustic buzz, its my playing fingers getting old and with a de-esser etc type plugin FabFilter pro bundle is £465 and the mix version not much cheaper too much for me to justify lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It works perfectly fine. https://kilohearts.com/products/gate De-esser: The Techivation T-De-esser Plus: https://www.pluginboutique.com/products/8164-T-De-Esser The gate and de-esser from Fabfilter are about the only ones I don't want from them and I feel don't justify the price. I got my eye on that Volcano 2 though... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ive looked at that T-De_Esser a million times and even think i downloaded it, then noticed its in my plugin boutique downloads so i must have missed it and never actually downloaded it haha Does the Kilohearts gate have any close defaults presets to fine tune ?

Kilohearts doesn't have presets, but the interface is very minimal (it's their style) and very easy to operate. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Eusebio Rufian-Zilbermann 835 Posted November 25, 2022 Are the fabfilter loyalty discounts applied on a "have nothing"/"have something" basis or do they get better as you purchase the more expensive plugins? In other words, is it worth it getting a cheaper plugin (e.g., micro) to become eligible for loyalty discounts? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
