I only bought licenses for both of those synths recently! U-He pretty much don’t do sales except for new releases, so that’s probably the best price you’ll see new. They’re both great though I do mostly use Serum and Hive

Tempted by Diva...@guitarfishbay, how do you like it? Do you have any analogue synths?

guitarfishbay

I like it. It’s especially good at getting warm and thick sounds. It’s not the lightest on CPU but hasn’t proved an issue so far.

I don’t have any analogue synths no, I keep considering it but I don’t think it’d be a good investment for me, I’m quite happy with the sounds I can get out of synth plugins.

NI are selling Output instruments with 50% off on most individual items, or 60% off the bundle.  They're amazing bits of kit.  I've used Signal and Analog Strings a couple of times and they're so much fun. They really get the creative juices flowing.

Also the $69 mastering bundle, which is about $1000 worth of plugins, including the stellar Vertigo VSC2 compressor.

As I mentioned, I like to use Nebula/Acqua plugins when tracking to add some colour/weight, and then I use the BX plugins for mixing as they are light on CPU. They can all be demo'd before purchase.

The Townhouse bus compressor is worth a look too, especially if you can pick it up for $29.

And like clockwork...Brainworx SSL E and Townhouse Buss Compressor, plus a couple of others are now on sale.

$69 for SSL E but use the code "PA-MEGA-20-OFF" to get it down to $49 like the others a couple of days ago. $49 for the compressor.

Got the set...completed it, mate!

The best SSL channel is Universal Audio imho.
They absolutely nailed it.

That said, I've used the Waves ones for quite a while- they are good.

Izotope have taken over Exponential Audio, which do some of the best native reverbs going- the coder (Michael Carnes) is an ex-Lexicon staffer.

You can get 4 reverbs for $200 if you own any of their other products, otherwise Phoenix Verb is $69.
I've been using all their plugins for years- R4 is really great.
