Agree. If the US is still too "dirty", I like Studio One's built in Console Shaper. That's pretty much "ON" on all of my mixes to varying degrees too. Also, after the demo runs out, knobs fall off leaving you with just the British style saturation and no hi-pass or Mojo....

I use Studio One. Just like they suggest, FrontDaw is the first plugin insert. Just dial in the amount of saturation you want with the input, then Hi-Pass to taste, then cycle through the flavors of saturation. I find British darker, US more clean and open, and German more gritty. Then play with the Mojo until you like it. It doesn't work for every track, but darn near. Really a great plugin! * * It just needs an Output Level knob!

So glad I got this when it first came out! I just wish they'd go to the trouble to add an Output Level knob to this for gain staging. That would make it just about perfect! I've been using this one and Hyperspace on just about every mix these days. Great plugins - and totally worth $19 if you don't have it!

You can add another Jam Point to bring it down to $125.99 - know, because that's MY price! ? As big a nussance as I find the IK universe to deal with, they are still top quality products. And THIS kind of ? my mind. Now, if ARC 3 was a part of the package... ?

Me three!

Is it a bad sign that I had to log in to my account there to see if I owned it already? ?

Last Day Of Summer from Bloodflowers - The Cure

Sigh. ?

When it says "Kontakt 5.8 or above", does it work with the latest Kontakt Player? ?

After getting Nectar 3 and absolutely loving it, Tonal Balance had just hit my "wish list". I got so excited when I saw this post I almost peed my pants. Then I went to the Izotope page. ?

Doubtful. I have never WUPPed myself, but have been eventually "upgrading" all along. It's been rocky for sure. But I must say, the latest version of the Waves Central now includes a bunch of the "helper" apps and fixes for legacy versions. So (knocks on wood) it has been going pretty well lately. Not sure when I last bought a Waves plugin though, but I have been grabbing their freebies...

Here it is....

That one was FREE recently...

New Order - Blue Monday

Good one! ?

The ProChannel is so much more usable than the teensy Studio One representations. It's got SO beat there for sure.

True, sort of. But just the stock ones. I use that feature on the VU Meter all the time. It's handy for gain staging...

Ah yes. Got it! Was just going to update my post after finding a pic. Yeah, that could be handy to find things quickly. Something like ProChannel would be nice too...

Hmmm... I'm having trouble visualizing this. It's been quite a while since I even looked a Sonar. Do you have a screen capture or something? I'm intrigued.

Thank for all the replies guys! Still good info - thanks! @Gswitz That is too funny! ?? Thanks for the "syntorial.com" recommendation. Good to know. He is not a newb, just doesn't have an analog synth yet. He's an FL Studio guy and owns quite a few VI synths like Sylynth. But he has been getting interested in analog stuff. Awesome! After watching the videos posted, this is the one I've been thinking about so it's great to get a first-hand recommendation from an experienced synth guy! ? PM sent.

What does this mean?

Yep. If you like to fiddle with the colors it's great. I haven't played with it much since I installed it but it gives you more options. But I'm in the camp of liking the UI. I won't say "love it" because I'd like more options to be able tweak it. But I actively like the workflow and functions that SO gives me. What would I like in the new version? I'd like to see them give the Splitter some more "dev love". I'm not sure another DAW even has this capability, but it makes things like parallel processing, L/R channel processing and frequency splitting a snap.
