Plugin Deals and Discussion Thread

Bod

Not a plugin but Presonus have just launched their Black Friday deals.

10% off an annual membership of Sphere, over £100 off Studio One 5 Professional  (£241 was £344) and about £40 quid off the upgrade price (£89.88 vs £128.40).  Studio One Artist is now just £59.64 from £85.20.

I've just finished my 4 month trial of Sphere and don't like subs, so this is perfect timing to get the perpetual Studio One Pro upgrade licence .

EDIT : Servers are being hammered at time of posting but deal runs until 30th

If anyone spots any deals on distressor plugs i'd be mightily interested. Also any wubwub synths.

I shot out the UAD LA2A compressors against the Black Rooster recently, and I sent @Cirrus and @guitarfishbay two mixes, one that used UAD stuff and one that used Black Rooster stuff. I preferred the Black Rooster mixes myself, Cirrus said he preferred the UAD ones, and GFB told me to go fuck myself and that he wasn't listening to my K-Pop.

It's worth pointing out that I'm always drunk

Which is why we like you.

I just got it this weekend.  I've got a Helix floor, but for recording purposes I just makes things easier. Great deal

I just had an e-mail, that if you buy Pluginguru Unify, ( $79 ) you get the Cloud City library ($59) free until January.
I already have both, but this is the only plug in anybody needs, strongly recommend having a look. 
Unify is a stand alone plugin host that has its own instruments, sampler, midi FX, audio FX, and allows layering of ANY plugin on your system, while optimising resources.
It was released earlier in the year and has already been massively updated, there is a library coming soon for Spitfire BBCSO that will blow your minds.

Console_N is great, the eq is a broad Neve tone shaping tool at low Qs, but it can actually get more surgical than an SSL at the highest q settings. The shelfs are also interesting - very steep corner, so you can for instance boost the fundamental of a drum while barely touching the low mids that get murky/woofy sounding - so it's great for adding punch or sub weight. The dynamics section doesn't have much of a sound, but it does the job if you want to just calmly control the dynamics of something - I especially like it for melodic but transient heavy instruments like acoustic guitars or tuned percussion.

I already have the SSL E & G consoles, and I've just added the Neve console for a bargain price! The Townhouse bus compressor is also great for $9.99 if you don't have it ...
