Picked up 2 UAD cards recently and adding a third soon. Between the UAD Fairchild/1176LN/LA2A/LA3A compressors and Neve EQ's, the Waves SSL & R-Comp, and Tritone Digital's Colortone, I'm content.

Actually I use Freeverb 2, the version without the GUI and the extra features. Although thanks for putting me onto that one... I always wondered whether somebody built onto the code.

Are you using native? Is it a resource hog?

 

[Genius Gone Insane]

Can't live without it.

What are you guys using Waves Rcomp on? Honestly I always stick with the PTLE compressors and then the C4. I thought the Rcomp was no good just by its boring interface. May have to give a second try.

To me, it sounds better than most native compressor plugins.
I think it's because of the knee curve or something. Also the detection algorithm is sweet. Somwhere between peak and rms. You can't get that sound with another plugin really.

Yes, I'm using VST or RTAS between Nuendo and Protools, depends on what I need done.

Depending on how many of the elements you need in each instance, it can be. If you use the full strip each time then yeah, you'll run out of CPU quick.

But a lot of the time I find I may not want the input stage to model anything, or maybe I don't need the filters, or two bands of the EQ, etc etc. In this case, the CPU drops dramtically.

I'm on a dual-core AMD btw.

Tried it on snare and kick last night and I'm very, very pleased with the results!

McDSP Classic Pack, MH Labs Channel Strip, D-Verb, Waves C4, Aptrigga. Nuff said.

 

[Skaldir]

One of my most used plugins is the Spitfish for de-essing and the Sonalksis EQ.

Btw. is there a free vst-drumsampler like Battery that can have multilayers for each note?
