So fiddly...but pretty great nonetheless.

A curve ball but Airwindows’ new Consolidated plugin is the most useful for me for some time. If allows you to fully delve into what Chris is doing and not have to worry about plugin management. It’s freed up my mind and time to make more music and have more fun doing it.

I think Airwindows is coming into a bit of a golden age right now. A lot of the concepts and pieces Chris has been working on the past couple of years seem to be maturing and coming together to make some truly awesome and unique tools. I cannot wait for ConsoleX.

In those GAS days, it's easy to get excited for something.
But the true value is in those plugins you keep going back to.
For me that's IK Mixbox as it's very useful as a channel strip and multi FX I use on lots of sounds. Best purchase this year and it's cheap. If only IK could add MIDI learn !

I wrote MorphEQ and meant Shade.

For those who like filters, Hybrid Filter is imo really excellent !
Was just playing guitar with TONEX CS and put it after, wow yummy, some presets sound like a wah but on steroids :D
A touch of Valhalla Supermassive and I am flying through solos haha 飞起来的感觉

Soundbetter Butterfly Effect is my favourite cloudy/granular/shimmery reverb.

Sixth Sample SSF is a fantastic rhythmic autofilter.

D16 Godfazer is my favourite phasor and also a great rhythmic filter.

Everything by Aberrant Audio.

Absolutely amazed by Black Salt Audios Silencer plugin, as well as THR Debleed. They do basically the same and it just works so good, unbelievable. As i am mixing lots of real drums, this is a gamechanger for me.

Fabfilter Pro Q 3. Which is why I'm on the forum cause my trial expired and I'm hoping I can snag a cheaper copy here lol.

So many great plugins that I'm always impressed by....

When I bought the full Minimal Audio Current and FX bundle, I assumed I might use the FX plugins as mostly creative effects here and there, but they are getting tons of use all over my projects. Swarm Reverb and Cluster Delay have become the first plugins I reach for if I just want a generic verb or delay, and then I'll swap them out if they are not doing the trick. Rift is my go-to distortion/saturator. Flex Chorus gets a lot of play on melodic instruments. Fuse Compressor gets a bit of use as a parallel multi-band.

Baby Audio Spaced out gets a lot of use when I want to quickly set a combined reverb and delay.

XLN Life gets a lot of use as a drum fill creator (by importing the track's drum beat and then just shuffling things around)

Analog Obsession FET CB and Comper get a lot of use. I can't put my finger on what's so special about FET CB, but it can really make staccato signals dance - things like keyboard plucks or funk guitar. Comper is killer as a 2-stage compressor all in one plugin. Only real downside to these is that there is no stereo unlink capability, so I use them mostly on single tracks and then go for Trackspacer on stereo busses. The other comps are nice too, but FET CB and Comper IMO cover a lot of ground that other comps don't.

I just bought Baby Audio Humaniod because it solves a huge need, but haven't had a chance to really put it through the paces yet. I expect it to get a lot of use moving forward.

Pro-Q, Spectre, and K-Clip are mainstays. Can't live without them. Superior Drummer for realistic drums. Tone Projects stuff for mastering.
