Well that's even better than I had been thinking. It'd be great if T-Racks was reborn as a suite of classic compressor, EQ, and preamp models. Imagine the full standalone T-Racks where you could now choose your compressor and EQ, etc, each from lists of classic gear from drop down menus, like AmpliTube2. Then each module would of course need to be available as individual plugins too. I'd still want to have solidstate console amplifier models too, for inserting as the first effect on each channel for analog coloring of tracks and the mixbuss, without having to have a compressor or EQ attached to it. Tubes are great, but you can't use tubes alone. I like how AmpliTube2 has some solidstate models. I hope the next version of T-Racks does as well.Funkybot's Evil Twin wrote:My ideal hope is that they drop the idea of T-Rack being a mastering suite, and instead just release a UAD-1 killer volume 1, with more to come. I'd love a good native 1073, Pultec, Fairchild, 1176, LA2A, along with even more modern stuff like a Distressor, a Manley Massive Passive, an API Pre, etc. Basically, I want a UAD-1's plug-ins without the underpowered card/dongle attached. If IKMM could put out a good plug-in suite like that, on top of their current product line, they'd be in a really good position to seriously cut into Waves marketshare and gain themselves a potentially higher reputation (lack of a dongle, no stupid WUP). Hell, if they could do a really good bundle like that by the end of the year, they'd totally abolish my waiting for a UAD-2 to be announced/released.
What exactly did Waves do with V-Series that you're referring to?Funkybot's Evil Twin wrote:I wouldn't even care if they weren't exact 1:1 emus or if they do something like Waves did with their V-series, but I'd definately like to see IKMM tackle a Neve plug-in along with some other choice vintage gear.
