I picked up Boz Transgressor 2 earlier for $21.36 or something which is about as cheap as it gets.
Biotek did catch my eye too.. I got F'Em on that deep sale a while back and really like that, which is why Biotek seems appealing!

Nice! Thanks. I have Cubase, but didn't have a few of the freebies. Thanks!
Enjoy Greg ? This is a case of a developer doing the right thing.. so often they offer freebies for people buying something and leave out the loyal customers that jumped in earlier. Full credit to Steinberg on this one. They get a big tick in my book for that.

$7.56 at JRR with discount code "GROUP"!!!
Installed!!!!!!
I could've sworn I tried that code earlier with it and it wouldn't accept it! JRRShop is always funny as to what code works with which product!
Nice find on the other code.
Let us know what you think. I have the IK one and Arturia, but at that price I couldn't rule it out ?

These add quite a lot of latency in Cubase.. I was trying a few out in a project and noticed the additional latency and traced it back to Goliath, Reelight and Firechild. Not too much of an issue in mixing stage, but I think I'll probably pass given I've got some good alternatives. Still not bad plugins though.

This.
We can get any compressor or EQ to do mid-side by using two instances, MSED, etc., but I prefer having it there in the plug-in. Soundspot's Cyclone compressor is still a favorite bus compressor of mine due to its having the dual linked/unlinked sets of controls. Even though I have more chic options like elysia mastering compressor, I can dial in that thing faster than anything else.
Yeah those conveniences can count for a lot too. That's interesting about Cyclone.. I think I might even own it, but didn't install it, as it was only VST2. I think I got it with Union synth and a few other things for less than $5 in total! I really like Elysia Alpha so it sounds like it might be worth a look.

Yeah, I passed on both of those deals; I hadn't fiddled with the standard versions enough to know whether I'd like them. Turns out I do, enough to drop $15 just to get the mid-side. Shadow Hills Mastering Compressor has the World's Sexiest Skeuomorphic GUI (TRIAD has the World's Sexiest non-skeuomorphic one).
It's not like there won't be more (and possibly better) deals on them in the future; I'm keeping an eye open on them.
You can get mid-side from the original (or any stereo compressor/EQ/etc) by using the free Voxengo MSED plugin. Takes two seconds to add to it, one instance before SHMC and one after. Not quite as convenient as the Class A having it native and I do prefer the parameter linking in the Class A when using it in stereo mode, but I still use both at times. Class A is a no brainer at $15 for sure.

I've got a handful of their compressors (Blue/Black Ash and VLA-FET) and honestly, I tend to reach for other comps before theirs - not there's there's anything wrong with them in the slightest. I just have others that I like for now and tend to use those.
Magnetite is decent, but now that I've got the T-Racks tape machines, it probably won't get much use.
VPRE-73 is great! That's my most used plugin from them.
I really need to go back through these again and try them out...
Oh, and customer support has always been great too.
Glad you liked the freebie Mibby and that VPRE-73 is a real gem. One of my favourites from them too ?

Thanks for catching this great find @MusicMan I was just listening to the video with the guitar and the demos (on my phone, granted) and really liked the sound of this reverb! Even better that it's free. I have picked up a few of their effects over the years, but honestly, I have yet to try them on anything. @mibby, I know you are into mixing. What of theirs do you recommend?
Welcome Peter and in general I find I dislike the majority of plate reverbs I try, which is probably also a lot of personal preference rather than them necessarily being bad. There are only a few that I do like. I've only played with this one briefly on guitar and initial impressions were very good. I need to test it further to say for sure, but as a freebie it seems excellent.
In terms of their other plugins, the VPre-73 is one of my favourite Pres and it can get a really nice warm sound that works on so much source material. It can be subtle or pushed a little further and still sound good. Highly recommended. Their VLA-2A (and the Mark II which you get for free if you own the original) version are very good too. The Mark II version was quite a nice improvement/alternative.
If I didn't already have so many compressors and EQs then I'd probably test and own more of their plugins. Great value and the developer does make some excellent plugins.
VPRE-73 is often on sale for less than the $29, so it might be better to wait for a sale where they're discounting that one in particular. However even at $29 it's still good value.

Black Rooster Audio: NEW FREE PLUG-IN RO-GOLD VINTAGE PLATE REVERB
https://blackroosteraudio.com/en/landing/ro-gold
Introducing our newest free plug-in: the RO-GOLD vintage plate reverb.
This physically modeled plug-in captures the true tone of a solid gold plate reverb, turning any signal into 24k magic.
The most luxurious and exclusive vintage room effect meets modern-day features for the highest-quality sound and optimal usability. With only a few, simple-to-use parameters, it has never been easier to achieve an authentic vintage reverb sound.Gold Plate Reverb RO-GOLD
A brief history
- The RO-GOLD was faithfully modeled after an iconic hardware classic, and upgraded with a 24k gold plate, for the most luxurious vintage reverberation experience.
- Our plate simulation approach allows us to authentically capture the analog unit's sound and feel as closely as possible while still including a few unexpected twists - all in the beautifully designed, easy-to-use package that is the RO-GOLD.
- Engineers have experimented with foil and metal plates to reproduce expensive reverb rooms since the 50s. However, installing and controlling a real metal plate reverb has never been easily attainable, nor has it been readily available to every producer or small studio - especially when it comes to real gold plates.
- As it often happens, this type of hardware remained exclusive to a select few elite studios for a long time. Nevertheless, plate reverberation is audible in many 50s and 60s hit songs, where engineers extensively used this technique.
- Not only does the RO-GOLD bring you the sound of these sought-after hardware classics, but it also captures the true tone of a solid gold plate, which would cost millions to recreate in real life. This 24k gem allows you to set up your own retro room sound, that is both warm and mellow. With only a few, simple-to-use parameters, it has never been easier to achieve an authentic vintage reverb sound.

Quite like this juanita. Sadly not Apple silicon native yet.
I own this one, but there doesn't seem to have been a lot (/any!) updates since I got it.. I get they may not need to add features, but VST3 and compatibility at least, or some visible signs of life would be good ?

Good idea to demo before purchase if you use Studio One. Relab does not support S1 and some (eg me) have had crashing problems with it.
Definitely a good tip. You would almost just assume they would be compatible, so I could see people getting caught out by that... rock solid on Cubase luckily.

or VST3
That was the one that surprised me.. I considered upgrading as I really quite like this one, but they were still only VST2. I think I read somewhere they were working on VST3 though.

Update: d16 - Phoscyon2 released
Intro price is € 89 instead of €119.
Check your emails and user area if you already own V1 as you can get it for €29 instead

If FM8 is still $10 then both! ?
I prefer the effects and UI in F'Em. Both very capable synths, so either choice, or both is good though.
