So after using the Wagner plug-in and pristine space, I can say I can get some serious tones out of it. I like it personally better then ReValver and my PodXT.
I will typically just use the all at noon settings on the wagner then use two of GH's impulses (my current fav is BBEH or something out of the JJ powertubes section) mixed with a center 1 or 45.
I then will cut at ~50hz, boost apprx. 3-6db at 100hz, do a mid sweep to find a nice cut then boost ~3db around 4.5khz to get the guitars to stand out if it's needed. I will generally just do the EQ on the master bus for the guitars unless I want more distinct tones. I.e. lead guitars I will boost certain freq's so they stand out a bit more.
Then of course compression thanks to c4 on the low end to keep things in order.
What do you guys typically do?
Also when I have 4-5 guitar tracks with Wagner, Pristine space loaded with 2 impulses, c4 and EQ'd, it literally tops out my vst performance even though my cpu load is only around ~40-55%. (2.33ghz c2d, 2gb ram. MOTU 828MkII with buffer set to maximum 2048 samples in Cubase) Any reason for it?
