Default Essential Plug-ins
If you could only have 2 plug-ins, which ones would you choose? Basically the two (maybe three) plug-ins that you could NOT live without..

Channel Strip(Only for it's multi, since I only get 3 plugs), Rverb and Elastic Audio.

I chose all stock plugs, but if they were 3rd Party.. SSLG Channel Strip, Trueverb and Renaissance Comp would also be handy(also if I had the money)

Maybe some Massey plugs also...

No Vocal tuning plugs, I'm so tired of no talent vox tracks and the "heavy" reliance on vocal tuning plugs now.


It's too hard to choose.. don't make me do it!

Melodyne, Pultec EQ1A and a good reverb(too many options there). I don't count Elastic Audio as I don't consider it a plugin Of course, the beauty of this is we can buy as many plugins as we want or need, so why limit yourself. Many have free trials, so dive in and find what works for you
