But usually in our world "save up to 80%" means there is one product nobody cares about that is 80% off while many might only be discounted by $10.

sometime not even a product but an upgrade lol

is it a standlone vst or in the modular rack stuff ?

Also, just because something is missing from your arsenal doesn't mean it needs to be there.

Exact but it wasn't said in that pure aspect , the end of the sentence is why i precise , something missing that you needed several times and don't have 

2 dayz a ago i recorded a rapper for exemple , his beat has vari tempo in it , when he epxorted it from Live it didn't had this FX applied (he doesn't lmaster live that much) and asked me if i could do it , this is where a plugin like HAlf speed with automation could have been a faster soultion , i eneded up at asking him the live session and handle it on my own , witch was a waiste of precious time , time , time time !!!! is the only thing you lose for ever !!! if i can make it more availlable with the help of 0 and 1 thks to a piece of paper ?  lol  BINGO !!

You can try the softube also (ACA is the name) , i love it .... but not cpu friendly

Guyz , any of you have some GUI size going funky (lol) like size B , close , open going size C then

Just some notes from "experience"...

Don't "Jump" right away....sometimes the best deals come
AFTER the initial "Black Friday" offers...as it get's closer to 
Black Friday, and especially because it takes a few to
compare "all the vendors prices" to get them posted!  I'll
usually post the FIRST one I see, and then go back and adjust
if I find lower prices somewhere else!

Some even come in AFTER the Black Friday 
sales because "they already roped those customers, and now
they're after MORE!  And some of the best deals come between 
Black Friday and New Years...so you just never really know!

Budget wisely!  Don't buy "just because it's cheap"!  Plan
on things that you really "need" and not "want" ( OK...a few wants maybe,
preferably AFTER the MAIN "needs" have been met)

Patience in this game is a virtue, but sometimes he who hesitates
is lost..so keep these adages in mind...if it's "not suppose to be that price"
JUMP immediately, and let it shake out.  They'll either fulfill the order,
or refund your money.  You're only out time...so it's worth it...

Black Friday is OVERWHELMING...so PREPARE a week or more BEFOREHAND!
Get yourself "mentally and financially (ha) prepared"! Make a list of "needs" and then "wants"
and then wait until the offers come in!  It's also helpful to "save throughout the year" for
Black Friday so you ARE financially prepared, and not living in "regret"!

Just some thoughts that I thought I would share...and feel free to 
add your own to the list!
 

Exellent i will add :

PREPARE projects and time to test plugins , projects that can exhibit strength of any processor (time based , dynamic , freq , combos ,) and instruments based projects ...

TESTING will be anyway benefical in reminding you what you have and its sonic prints (plugins you already have) 

ANALYSE What's really missing in your arsenal , something that you missed to have servral time (in my case , delays this year and guitar plugin)

CHILL AROUND HERE and have fun because we share a lot of information , and sometime giving adivses even answers your own questions (i'mexperiencing this as i type this word lol)

To be fair , any good channel strip can get the job done ´ i would be able to mix with any model , witch is a sign of good quality ..

THU will never leave my projects mainly because it sounds great and the CPU hit is lower - by a huge margin - than anything other decent amp sim out there.  It really is a great plugin.  Having said that, Plini, STL have found a home with me but THU remains my main workhorse.  Neural plugins sound amazing but the CPU hit is MUCH higher than THU.

 

MArc THU stock or with Rig mainly ?

Maybe time to sell Overloud and get some Neural DSP

i opened a session last day , just few tracks cpu going crazy , i checked : nurald dsp cory wong : 48 % cpu per instance , basically it was fuking up 2 threads on a 8 threads comp , enormous ....so kudos has to be giving to overloud at least for Cpu hit , neural dsp is , imho for GTR PLAYERS , not for producers  , boucing track seems a must with those at soon as you go stereo and all modules used ... also bug fixing is kinda slow , i dnetified a bug (seriious one on cpu) in abasi , they confirmed and telling me they're on it , several month later i asked back , they told me update is coming , i sold it several days ago  , i know they gonna smash it as they did with the nolly bug i found , but it's slow ...and i noticed strange behavior on cory wong .... all this to say that sounds /features is a thing , relying on the tools is another , in that aspect , never had an issue with less bling bling brnds...

Very long ago I was asked them to make kind of obvious improvement  for TAPEDESK like adding possibility to manage whole groups of instanced for groups of tracks.

They agreed with me it is something very welcome and said it would be one of first priority. I was so happy... Fast forward many months (years?)  still lack of this so useful feature...

yup, for non-UAD or non-Antelope users it is even bigger concern...  Cannot wait for test... Who knows maybe Zo will give us a shot about it with a video?

I asked Ryan if i could have a pre realease demo or some to really put it on run , i will certainly ask you guyz for guitar parts (as well as Peter)  and test it ... as a prodcuer ,i'm pretty sure , zillions of metal guyz will do videos on it then lol as soon as i see a review with a man doing clean to crunch i'm like Amen !

Personnally i'm kinda dissapointed by the lack of serious updates for TH and markbass ...been pushing this to those gentelemens but it's slow ... i'm selling my TH3 for that , it could have been exellent but the lack of energy put on it exept this rig endless sampling is making a producer like me wondering if they really think , only people using this are guitar players seating on chair jaming with a rig ?

Hi hopes on AT 5 (cpu hit is my concern , so this dayz that for the first time in my life i'm 99 % close to buy an uad octo just to fre up some cycles for the rest ..)

I picked this one up with one of their $29.99-for-any-plugin vouchers previously, and am thinking about maybe picking up some of the other consoles at some point in the future. Sorry for the naïve question, but is there a general rule of thumb for when it's best to use the Neve (bx_console N), SSL 4000 E, SSL 4000 G, or even the newer SSL 9000 J? Are any of them better suited to any particular genre?

 

Api coming .... shhhhhh i said nothing ...

That's the one. I haven't spent much time with it. I put it on the master bus of a project I'm working on, loaded Michael's preset, and decided I need to purchase it.

lol man you just reminded me , i never tried the presets !!

this one here? is anyone able to comment on what is go great about it and how much better is it from other older compressors that have been around for  a while?

https://www.softube.com/germanium-compressor

 

 

He has a unique action , that alone is worth the try , it's not a 1176 , an ssl , vari mu ect ....UNIK ...

Second : it works really well on any sources  i tried .... hence you know how to use it 

This leads me to the 3rd part : not for kids ,kinda triky to handle  to understand the beauty of all the poissibilities ...

It will handle bass , vocals , drums andything like top of the top , usually comps fail in at least one area .... the KEY is the handling of the feedbck drive and so the freq response , at default setting , you will have some serious meat on lows

My take on it :

Anyone else starting to feel like that Hans Zimmer sound is getting a bit old?

Hans Zimmer reminds me of the villian in the Incredibles: I’ll give them heroics. I’ll give them the most spectacular heroics anyone’s ever seen! And when I’m old and I’ve had my fun, I’ll sell my inventions so that everyone can be superheroes. Everyone can be a super! And when everyone’s super....no one will be. [evil laughter] [leaves room]

Like, 'when everyone sounds like Hans Zimmer.....'

I don t know but by judging at the level of non exitement this video made to me , i l starting to feel finally mature to resist purchasing stuff i don t need ....

I've been trying out Cali. It's all relative but I don't think you'll miss the cleans in either Nolly or Cali if you have Plini. Between the first two, Nolly is definitely the more versatile (both in terms of amps and FX, although the overdrive pedal in Cali is really nice). Both have decent cleans, so those who are mainly interested in high-gain tones might be covered with a single Neural DSP purchase. I would have been very happy to use Nolly for everything, had I not demo-ed Plini. 

Again, very generous trial policy, and with the site-wide sale, it's easy to isolate exactly what you like/need. I might get Nolly if I figure out a way to feed myself the following few days ? Can't fault them though; they're not cheap, but they're still awesome value.

Actually , been impressed by cleans in Cory wong and the ability to go heavy if needed with pedals ... 

yeah he cali i skipped it at that time , for the price neural dsp is right now , 4 or 3 amps , pedals and cabs , it s really on lair with cheap offers around , with a higher quality ...

stl tones is underated also .... the problem is that it s mainly engineers , so the tones aren t meant to be as natural neural dsp but usually seats easily  in the mixes ... between those 2 brands for fast gtr tones , and amplitube for getting mpre complex tones ...i think we re set ....

No Larry , no !! By the way happy with Semi Hollow Oncle L , thks fir your advise and the head up on kvr , i wish could have bougth an acoustic one also but he sold it already. ...

The victory craken in nolly is superb ... 

Toffo , for cleans i ve found the first amp in Abasi to rule by it natural and precie tone .... i sadly sold abasi recently because of the heavy tone , bass tunes it has that indon t really need and bugs thatbthey take ages to fix ...

i don t count how many times size don t get recalled by the way on all models ...

Last year it was 50 % if i recall well if more than 5 plugins or some , it was quantity based hence the group by , 

now i think with their policy , patience is key , i didnt thought a new one wiould be at 50% aka cory wong , now it. Snotice and i will no more jump in first day releases ....

Larry : Nolly can be the only amp you ll need ... it misses fx like a.plitube ect ...but for regular tones compsed with overdrive , eq , delay and verbs needs ... bingo ... the 4 amps are exellent ...and do way more than their actuall role ( the lead one doing some superb cleans , the clean one doing some great crunch ect ...) 

i remeber being impressed by the caly for clean tones and crunch ....anybody ?

@Marc Cormier here we go homie !!
