I need 1,000,000, more plug-in and then my mix will be satisfactory! ?

[Fleer]

Still, maybe it’s time to make a list of our ten favorites, outside of any DAW  

For me:

FabFilter Pro-C2, Pro-Q3 and Pro-R

Slate FG-Stress & VMR-rack

Zynaptiq Adaptiverb and Intensity

SoundTheory Gullfoss

Wavesfactory TrackSpacer

IZotope O9N3

 Easily accomplished buying Waves, ignoring the WUP, then buy the new versions for $29.

[PhonoBrainer]

Having bought a coronaload of plugins for mixing, here's the ones I actually always use. . .

EQ = Fabfilter ProQ3, Maag 4, Oeksound Soothe

Comp = Waves API2500, the Glue, Softube Drawmer s73.   (Limiter = Fabfilter pro-L 2)

Specializers = Softube Tape, Zynaptiq intensity

Modulaters = Waves Brauer motion, Soundtoys echoboy and filterfreak and Microshift

Reverb = Seventh Heaven, Breeze 2, Spaces

 

What am I missing out on???

I would be very interested to see similar "most used" lists from the more experienced people in here. It's one thing to say "this is a really nice plugin!" and another thing to actually use it regularly, so seeing (or not seeing) a certain plugin on different lists would help me decide if it's actually worth the money, or at least something that I should look into.

If you do post a list I personally would appreciate if you also mentioned what kind of music you usually mix or produce. I'm interested to see what effect that has on plugin choices.

I personally am just starting to learn how to properly record and mix my metal/rock songs, so no favorites yet.
