Cubase, what plug ins

[carvedones]

Ok I have Cubase. Just wondering what the best plug ins to get to start with would be.

 

[colonel kurtz]

i'll say eq, compression, and reverb

but that's just me

Well, that kind of depends..

What is your budget? what are you going to do? record bands? record home recordings? would you like sampled drums then?

I would start with some free plugins first like the fish filets first.. if you have the money or access, waves plugins are very popular and great plugins. Im a fan of the ultrafunk sonitus plugins as well, check them out if you can.

There's millions of plugins i can name here, but first you will have tell us a bit more on what you are planning to do..

I plan to start with recording just myself with mostly plug ins. Di guitars and bass. And Ezdrummer. Im after a nevermore type vibe. I am currently using amplituse 2 for guitars but been thinking of getting a pod xt (opinions).

Podxt is totally tits, I love mine for convenience

yowzers
that looks like a rather tasty dvd.
jesse jane is exquisite

 

[whitedamp]

Now I am wondering. That "stupid boy" of this thread could have spent the night (and day) of his life with some girls like Jesse Jane with his £20,000. Actually he could have spent a whole week. Damn.

Stupid kid.
Sorry, off topic.


anyway, check the free plugins from Gvst.

Which version of Cubase do you have? If it's 4 (not Studio) you won't need a Comp/EQ for the start as the built in ones are said to be very good. Maybe look into some Reverb then.

 

[carvedones]

Cubase Sx3

 

[HeadCrusher]

Well, then you better get some extra comps and eqs. *gg*
I like the Waves Renaissance stuff. Comps/EQs/R(e)verb... all of them.
