Waves. I just had to wup Clarity for work after moving to Mac. Plus all the other messages letting me know that wup/second licenses for other plugins are now expired makes those pointless to use. Gonna stick with companies that at the very least let you have more than one license for more than a year.

Kontakt soundlibs.
After all the libs I have bought, I found, that none of these offer really something, I can't do with the synths and sound shaping possibilities in my DAW.
Well, of course, that's just concerning my type of music.
After all I found also, that the sampled instruments are never as great and warm sounding as the original.

Not buying saturators that don't oversample anymore. And not buying the gaslighting from people who say aliasing isn't a problem in digital audio and we're just imagining it.

And Waves - no more and never again.

Post

Not buying more software EQs, comps, saturators, verbs, delays, or DAWs. No more guitar amps/modelers, or analog outboard either

Things I would buy - better monitoring/treatment, maybe some Atmos related things, and some kind of novel FX or soft synth that either expands creativity or improves workflow.

Im not buying what yall are saying...

I am not buying any compressors, delays, or eq's for sure. I'm not even downloading freebies of those things. Likely not any more reverbs although maybe IRs. Probably not much of anything else except upgrades.
Even if the piano player can't play, keep the party going.

Guitars. I have an abundance of nice guitars. If it was a poker hand, I'd stand pat with what I have, which I'm doing.

People can - and do - rage all day here about never buying Waves / IK / NI etc, but pretty much every developer now makes great high quality tools that will do anything any vageuly competant producer needs. KVR is usually dancing on the head of a pin to distinguish one from another aurally, and it almost invariably comes down to an emotional feeling that each person has with each developer depending on their own experience with them and how much they feel slighted and how much they need the world to know they feel slighted.

We need no more EQs, delays, reverbs, compressors or saturators in the world. We need no more synths, drums or sample libraries, not really. The market is wildly over-saturated. Compared to the practical limitations faced by any music-makers in generations before us, our aural problems are vanishingly small.

All the real problems are elsewhere, and they are structural music industry ones. With hundreds of thousands of new tracks released daily, getting heard is harder than ever before, and it's harder to make a career from it. Bands are almost a thing of the past, as there's too many people in a band to make economic sense (if you don't believe me, look at the charts and count how many new bands there are). The alchemy of making music, the fusion of different creative and business minds who improbably met at just the right time is almost lost. 4 people playing in a room has been replaced by 4 million playing in their own rooms.

99% of the posts here are therefore displacement activity. We tell ourselves that a new plugin or library will make the difference to us as artists, when with musicial and engineering skill you could make a hit record that technically sounds stellar with just free or stock DAW plugins. But you won't because the market precludes it. So you buy another plugin instead.

Can't wait for the new Spetcrasonics rhythm thing.

Personally, I wouldn't want to mix with only the stock plugins in the DAW's I use (Studio One, Maschine, Luna). However, I could easily mix with only Ozone and Lexicon 224, and nothing else.
