    Amazing that a lot of stuff I got around for under $10 has a high list price. I have enough compressors and eqs, don't want any amp sims.

    Which one of those consoles would someone recommend?

     

    Lindel 80 , ssl 9000 would be stuff that covers the widest range combined ....

    That makes the Unison Tech sound even more appealing; it often seems like a real fight to get gain staging right for amp sims. Interesting to hear you say such positive things about the '55 Deluxe. From what I've read, people seem pretty divided about it.

    Hopefully an Apollo is in my future, but that's going to be a loooong way down the track!

     

    @Zo Until last month, I was trying to run UAD plugs from an old UAD2 solo card and only upgraded because running Ocean Way or Capitol meant I couldn't really run anything else. But you're right, Sunset scratches a similar itch  (albeit less flexibly than OWS). And its plates are so good, I think I'll probably be reaching for them ahead of the UAD EMT140. I really like the electrosonic one.

    yep Craig , for real sunset is for me the best release this past months , unlike a lot of fx , its impacts is direct and inspiring , already used it on the last 2 tracks i'm working on : pure pleasure ....

    maybe that's why the bx_console 4000E and 4000G got discounted to $49

    yep they will then propose like usual uprades witch will incitate people to get it ....but so far if i didn't had the xl 9000 from softuibe and the duende witch is close , that would be a smart move : 4000 + 9000 ...

    Darn you UAD users, I can't get near one of those plugins unless I buy some hardware.  ?

    Jesse i have those at school and don't reach for them because they sound better , it's not that , most are on pair with what we can have native and i 'll get some native other them quite several time ....the key is the respect of audio source , UAD plugins are all pretty heavily oversampled internally , so you'll get a constant quality and dsp off your omputer cpu (noticed that i does take some native cpu as well) .

    So for me UAD is a waranty of 

    1) Processing no matter how crappy is your computer power

    2) Quality of processing .

    The plugins that impressed me were the ocean way (witch ik sunset answered the need of getting it) and the UA 176 /175

    Just really getting into my Apollo Twin recently since I finished my new build. I really am surprised at how good these plugins sound. Been playing with the 55 Fender Deluxe. Man that thing is sweet!! With the Unison Technology, my Les Paul plugged into the Apollo... one of the best amp sims I have ever played!!

    Agreed Zo about the 10 bundle. But also agree with Craig! Man if the ol lady found out I spent $1k on plugins.... I might not be posting anymore!!

    True , but the sad truth is that we easily soend this a year on 29 euros plugins and other updates , upgrades ect ...

    If you can scrounge up that much dough at a time!

    I have to say, I like the promos they've been doing in terms of giving some of the fancier plugins free with hardware. I got a Satellite Octo last month and it came with the Lex480, 175/176 compressors, Avalon pre and Helios mkII (subbed for Capitol Chambers which I already had). The new deal on the Apollo Twins doesn't look quite as juicy, but it's still not bad.

     

    personnaly i was thinking uad since it will make me skip upgrading desktop and laptop so at the end it's money saved and the goal was one octo and that 999 bundle witch is basically 2 k witch is not even the price of a new laptop ...

     

    That said i'm good with my native stuff , still some stuff i can use due to cpu , neural dsp being one of those ...really aimed for guitar players that plugin guitar and wanna play , as an fx in sessions it's too heavy ...
