As you probably know, many of us are eligible for a freebie from Plugin Alliance through our Avid accounts (the PT "Inner Circle" bonuses). Well, after looking through the 130+ available plugins, many of which are truly awesome...plugins like
the ones mentioned here, and so many others, I made a choice.
I decided on the
DS Audio Thorn VI. Normally $199 and I got it for free!!! This is a pretty versatile and powerful VI with a great sound, nice onboard effects, and arpeggiator. I had the free Computer Music Magazine (CM) version for a while, but it was limited. The full version is well worth it.
So, if you're pondering what to get (assuming you qualify with Avid for the freebie), consider this VI.
