Waves Horizon $149.99 at Everyplugin, reduced upgrades (for about two days)

Upgrade from Platinum $74.99

If interested, please check your individual upgrade price from what you actually have in your account. This is likely to be lower. 

Also gives you a year of fresh WUP. I know, WUP is bad, but still ... 

This is one of the temptations you're running into when owning a smaller bundle. The question is if you need / will use what you will get additionally. 

UPDATE: According to Koby from Everyplugin, this price will be available for the next 2 days.

Do people who own a lot of Waves plugins like to use the StudioVerse effect chains for StudioRack? Like, do you think that they're good and useful? Time-savers?

And: Does it really use up 16GB disk space when you install all the plugins inside of the Horizon bundle? Like, what is using so much space? It's mostly just effects, not huge sample libraries.

I have not tried them in depth, only twice for a few hours. Yes, they can be a time saver, and the more plugins you have, the more chains are available. Filtering for what you own is easy, and if you are picking your favourites over time and know the chains in-depth, you can become really fast I guess. 

One thing you can do is start the demo (for a week I think) with a bundle that's attractive to you, take some time and use the stuff in a project or two and see if it's for you. 

There are other solutions around with a similar approach. Two that I prefer: 

1. PSP Infinistrip, great presets, but "only" a channel strip. At PSP, they have certain plans to extend the software, but I don't know any details. 

2. Hofa System. A plugin toolbox that goes beyond channel strips. A bit expensive, 350 presets which are really good and endless possibilities. My favourite time saver, one plugin per track to do 90% of the work. 

As you see, I'm not a friend of "go to the web and download preset chains", but rather a curated set of presets that tick a lot of boxes. An ever-growing collection in the cloud does not guarantee the stuff is good and well-curated, and an essential thing to keep in mind is that chains are solutions you have to analyse before being good and fast with them. A finite set of presets suits me better. But that's just me. :)

Both great ideas. Love that InfiniStrip. Haven’t gotten into Hofa yet (maybe ‘cause I’m so enamored with FabFilter).

StudioRack is good for the quick transfering the setting of the whole train to another project.
