Fleer Posted August 18, 2021 Share Posted August 18, 2021 Yep, get Thorn first and foremost. Then bx_oberhausen and maybe Knifonium or even UA Lion. Some fx are pretty interesting too, like bx_masterdesk, SPL Iron and Vitalizer Mk2-T, Maag EQ2 or EQ4, Elysia mpressor and Karacter, Noveltech Vocal Enhancer or the Unfiltered Audio ones. And many more. But don’t overlook ADPTR Audio Metric AB. It’s pretty dandy handy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand I keep wondering if Thorn is worth the money over the "free" Thorn CM version for someone that isn't a synth junkie. The CM version is pretty feature packed.

Expand Thorn CM has the following limitations compared to the full Thorn: 2 oscillators instead of 3 1 filter instead of 2 4 effects instead of 9 Less filter models Only you can decide if it is worth the extra money.

Again from someone that doesn't push the limit of even what "CM" can do, $40 (without vouchers) isn't exaclty free and also there are lots of other options on the table.

Expand If you’re not getting vouchers, just spend $50 in a year. These sales are a good time to get in. Then just be patient and pick up one plugin each month for $15 or $25 after voucher. The best time though would be when they have sales and the $20 no minimum vouchers. Edited August 18, 2021 by ALC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's east on Waves stuff since I don't like their licensing. I have everything IK, Kilohearts, Melda. I never really get to far in anything to actually use any of this stuff. No reason to add any synths since I have all of the popular stuff. These remarks are always a resounding gong that hopefully open my ears one day. It seems something like a car repair brings a hint of perspective but even that is temporary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
