Forum: AAX Plug-ins 07-10-2017, 09:23 AM

Replies: 8 Waves plugins... What's the use of standalone versions? Views: 10,218 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Waves plugins... What's the use of standalone versions? I don't understand why I never thought of that. In my naive mind, everyone is using Pro Tools.

Replies: 8 Waves plugins... What's the use of standalone versions? Views: 10,218 Posted By GeneRoberts Waves plugins... What's the use of standalone versions? So, lots of Waves plugins also come in standalone software versions, sitting on our desktops and (I'm assuming) never getting used from over there. What's the point in having those standalone...

Read up on it a while back. (Huge Elgar Fan, by the way.) But the fact that major Hollywood scores should be recorded there also makes my point. I lived in LA for 20 years and I know...

I also dislike the non-stop references to Beatles-related studios and gear, as if it automatically meant quality. The name given to some old London residence converted into a recording studio is...

Replies: 65 Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Views: 19,700 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Thanks for that detailed comment. I'll be sure to pay more attention to these. If I can get H-Verb to work well for me then it might be worth it, after all.

Replies: 65 Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Views: 19,700 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Not a whole lot. I'm new to PT (Used Samplitude before.) and only have used PT for 5-6 songs. But the stock plugins have served very well. I used meticulously dialed eq tricks to bring a badly...

Replies: 65 Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Views: 19,700 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. I played with the Abbey Road Plates plugin for hours. Tried every possible dial. Sounds OK, but it's not appropriate for this mix. I didn't feel good about the sound coming out of H-Verb either. In...

Replies: 65 Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Views: 19,700 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Wow! That Abbey Road trick is amazing! Thank you so much! Can't believe I might continue mixing not know that cool trick. Some reverb plugins allow you to roll off the highs and stuff, it's nothing...

Replies: 65 Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Views: 19,700 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Shelled out for the Waves Bundle, went back to stock plugins. Thanks for your comments. I might have been a little overzealous... But if we take eq, for instance, the PT stock 7-band eq seems superior to the ones in Waves, with the exception that it won't let...

Thank you for the intelligent thoughts and the good advice. I agree with you. I have many years of experience in music making but digital production is relatively new to me. So it's entirely possible...

Got the Platinum Bundle + a few separate reverb and some other plugins. And I agree with you. Their eq plugins were so bad I don't see myself ever using them. I'll see if I can find something I like...

Replies: 27 Does PT have a spectral view for special cleanup? Views: 11,915 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Does PT have a spectral view for special cleanup? Strange that people have opposed something like this. It's clearly a defect for a industry standard software to be lacking such an important feature. Why the hell did we move away from Samplitude!

Replies: 27 Does PT have a spectral view for special cleanup? Views: 11,915 Posted By GeneRoberts Re: Does PT have a spectral view for special cleanup? That's just so weird... No noise removal, no spectral view, no opening multiple sessions... I love the Pro Tools interface but I feel like I downgraded from the previously used cheaper software I had.
