Thanks Lars

Any guesses as to what it will be?  The CLA line of plugins already seems fairly complete.

Door seems pretty wide open to me.

He basically has "muti-effects" for a few instruments and vocals.

Compressors

Channel Strip

Thats it as far as I know.  Saturation (since he is known for"rock") would be a possiblity. .  or a Keys and Synth multi-effect to add to the signatrue bundle.

The NEW CLA psuedo-psycho-doesitall plugin!

[locrian]

Yeah, I was thinking either saturation, reverb, or something novel like Brauer Motion (CLA CoMotion).

Right! Just insert it, press the big "GO" button, and it mixes, masters, and uploads your track to all the major streaming services (and then routes the resulting income to your bank account).

Talk about a dream!!!

If I were to guess I think it's got to be something they will be willing to give up. But then Studio Rak is a really good plugin!!!

Last year's freebies were actually pretty good: Abbey Road Saturator, the three MDMX Distortion Modules, and there was something else that I can't remember.

[locrian]

I think the other one was Berzerk Distortion.

Last year was the year of distortion!

I didn't get Abby Road Saturator.

I recall Berzerk Distortion - which has to be the polar opposite spectrum

And a reverb I'll never use.

H-Comp and a bunch of worthless One knob this and that.  

 

Don't think saturator and the MDMX were free, they were just released around they time they gave us other stuff.

Berzerk was the ONLY free offering ....the MDMX and AR Satch were offered only if you owned 2 of the 
the other distortions, and only for a brief time...

Yeah. I remember. I just don't think they would give away anything big!

[RSMcGuitar]

If I had to guess, the new CLA plugin will be something 'punch' related

They gave away H-Comp.

I don't know if it classifies as big, but  it is both legitimatly useful and has a modern UI.  Not some esoteric or antiquated plugin.  

The sibilance pluign they gave away was also good, but that one is very limited use type of effect.

It's the new CLA Baseball Cap.  It helps you hide any sort of receding hairline in an attempt to appear younger.  Younger ears hear more!!

Speaking of nice giveaways - the most recent one from Waves, the dbx160 is pretty great on drums!  I just played with it last night, and WOW!   ? 

PS. Thanks Waves and Audio Plugin Guy!

"CLA punchy deals. The real deal finder plugin.

Deal with it!"

I heard what makes this free new plug-in special is that once installed it converts non Waves plugins so they also require WUP upgrades or else they stop working.  It’s called CLA, ransom edition.
