Personal preference I suppose but I love them. I am nearly exclusively a Waves user, with only a couple minor exceptions, and they're rare. You can always re-WUP at any time, even after a long lapse, without any penalty. I LOVE WUP!!!!! You DON'T NEED TO be covered. Sometimes it's the utility of the thing as well.Īs far as WUP. or the ducking filter in the H-Reverb, not only is it an amazing sounding reverb, but it also saves me the time of having to sidechain a comp following the verb when I want to duck it from the vocals.
Like the EMO-D5 with so much dynamics control all in one place, or the C1. Sometimes the utility of the workflow offered by a particular plugin makes it invaluable. which can be valuable enough on it's own. They do certainly have their place though, and I have used them on a few projects where time was the most critical factor and they did a good job of generally covering a lot of tasks with one plug. I could send you my plugin chain for a typical pop vocal from my rooms/chains that works perfectly here and it may suck horribly for your rooms/chains, and vice verse.
so what may work brilliantly for me, may work terribly for you. The other ones are just a bit too all inclusive for my taste, with not as much specific control as I look for, cause I'm a bit spoiled with great rooms, instruments, musicians, mic's, pre's, and converters, so I'm able to get super close to what I want on the way in, so I'm not having to get too crazy in the box.Īs with any piece of gear, or plugin, or preset, or approach, it's all going to be source dependent.
TONY MASERATI PLUGINS SERIES
I personally don't use much of the signature series stuff (with the exception of the CLA 2A and 76, and the Kramer Master Tape, which are all stellar) They are pricey otherwise and that would be the only objection for the budget minded. And at the Waves discounted price you can't go wrong. They sound solid and they inspire great ideas.
TONY MASERATI PLUGINS PLUS
Anyone that doesn't like these plugs or wouldn't find them useful for many styles of music is either Tony Maserati himself or another grammy award winning mixer with access to 20 plus years of knowledge and all the new and vintage gear in the world. Thanks!Maserati plugs are very good for instant gratification, but you can still tweak and that is where you will find the best results with them.
TONY MASERATI PLUGINS PRO
Has anyone used the tony maserati pack? are these artist packs just marketing gimicks? Am I better of getting the power bundle or even sticking with the default pro tools plugs (not too many I dont have the production pack or whatever it is called)? Looking into buying some plugins for under 500, and with the 40% off deal waves got I thought now would be a good time, I do mainly hip hop and some alternative rock/r&b/techno, lol so basically a lot of different things but mainly hip hop, lots of VSTs, only real instruments are vocals and electric and acoustic guitars everything else is virtual or samples
When someone has strident difference in opinion from my own taste it intrigues me. I use stillwell majortom and trasiendmonster in some situations.īut ya when i start eqing in p.record i finish 80% of the job there and just do my touches in parallel send fx etc in cubase with PROPER plugs.Īnd again, that works for me and i'm just expressing my personal opinion. When i used the maserati, jjp, or kramer, i told myself that these developers try so hard to market crap, cuz who the hell uses two band no option eq, and one fader compression? come on, they made these for beginners? well beginners can learn and use the basic stuff in their daw, cuz these fancy plugs don't make their music sound good, it really doesn't. I use the rcomp and eq in a buss channel of my back vocals, they are very sweet for that purpose,
On my parallel compression i really like uad 1176, and it sounded so bad when i tried cla76, again sounds very digital and to be honest with u, it reminds me of nomadfactory plugs. Vocal eq must be uad pultec pro, and the compressor must be uad la3a, and for desser i must use the waves rdesser (which can't live without) they sound too harsh and digital (or maybe i'm not used to them i donnu) I mix with p.record rewired into cubase (yes it's a pain in the as$ but worthed) and get everything sound right with uad 1176, la2a, and la3a, very quickly, never got the sound right with the cla stuff. Well, i never used a real ssl 9k, but if u do a search here, u'll notice that whoever used the real 9k, also liked the record mixer which is an emulation of the 9k, the waves ssl is 4k emulation, and i think the 9k sounds better than the 4k in the real life? i donnuīut i used to use the waves ssl eq on every channel (expect vocal) and when i got the p.record, i just got in love with its eq, much much better then the waves, it sounds good even on vocals to be honest with u.
