A question from Sound Sonic - what is your favourite plugin brand and why?

[SoundSonicTeam]

Ha, strange list there, which I guess is why most are under "Other". Spectrasonics, u-he, Camel Audio. None of which are mentioned...

Great stable products, excellent customer service (except if you want to buy spectrasonics second hand but otherwise good). NI are up there too for me but I'm pretty sour about them dropping Kore as well.

Cool yeah just trying to get an idea of what plugins are most popular. The 3 you highlighted are pretty much the most popular that aren't on the list. Thanks for the reply!

We'd also love to hear about other brands which float your boat. If not listed here please leave a comment. It would be nice to hear your thoughts.

Native Instruments.
Using their stuff all the time...
Apart from my DAW and a plugin from others here and there, NI Komplete is pretty much all I need.

By the way, also feel free to drop your best track here, it'd be good to hear something new.

not sure if it's our best track, but it's new and gets good reviews and I'm always happy to spam the video link if somebody aks for it .g.

Nice, a pretty German electro sound with dark guitars, a killer combo!
What do you find you use most in NI Komplete? I tend to use Prism and Massive alot.. the only problem with Komplete is that its pretty much limitless and its hard to know when to stop!

I go through phases regarding Komplete.
I remember a time I used Kontakt for anything and then a time I used Reaktor for anything. I also had a hefty Battery pahse, before I got Komplete.
Right now, it's Guitar Rig and the three synths (Massive/Absynth/FM8).

Like you say, it's pretty much limitless .g.

That is a sweet setup.. Do you reckon Guitar rig is the BEST amp simulator? with all it's effects and different setups it's hard to see past it eh?

hmm. waves, softube, slate digital, u-he, N.I., sknote...

all of these always turn up in my tunes in one form or another.

why? because they sound great.

check my sig to hear the results

Nice one! I'll take a listen! What's your waves preference by the way?

i'm rather partial to the kramer tapes tubes and transistors bundle.
i just got the h-eq which is rather good as well.

Yeah all top quality but affordable plugins, oh nice sounds by the way! Could see your stuff used on computer games?

Acustica-Audio Nebula3 has emptied out my entire effects vst folder of everything but PSP Vintage Warmer.

Wow, it must be pretty good then?

Voxengo! For plugin quality and consistancy of look and operation.

Nebula is a hardware effects sampler.

It actually inspired me to investigate moving to using hardware Effects, which I am going to pursue as budget becomes available.

I just realised this is in the instruments forum. I think I read the thread wrong. I was referring to effects; eq, compressors etc.. not vst instruments like synths or samples.

The developer that gets me the most excited when I find out they have a new plugin on the horizon is Audio Damage. Can you see my excitement in the photo?
