Here are our picks for the top five ‘3rd party VST plug-ins’ that get the most use within our productions.
No.5 CLA BASS / Waves
Waves are renowned for producing high quality plug ins and ‘CLA Bass’ is no exception. This multi effect unit can add depth to any synth or sample by playing around with all the parameters to find the desired end result which is never disappointing.
No.4 VOCAL RIDER / waves
This plug-in is always situated on our vocal bus, by finding the right range and rider parameter sweet points for different vocals to blend seamlessly into
your mix-downs.
No.3 BX STEREOMAKER / Brainworx
Try using this plug-in either as a send/return or on your drum bus, great tool to help place sounds more precisely inside the stereo field.
No.2 L3 MULTIMAXIMIZER / Waves
The L3 is the perfect plug in for your PC (Parallel compression) bus. The multi-bands are a great way of getting rid of ‘Muddy’ sounding mid frequency signals that an often clutter mix-downs. This plug in can also work great on the master lane for self-masters if you are needing to road test a new production on club speakers.
No.1 NUETRON / Izotope
For producers that have a hard time hearing resonant frequencies this plug-in is amazing. By using the ‘Track assistant’ Neutron scans the lane/channel it is assigned to for resonant frequencies,.'Neutron' then applies tailored EQ cuts/boosts and effects according to what mode you have selected for the ‘Track assistant’. Highly recommend purchasing this plug-in and thats why its sitting at our no1 spot.
