PT 10 & Plug-in Presets
I am currently looking to get a good DAW to work with, Pro Tools is definitely a candidate. Only thing is I apparently need to pay $50 and get a USB key just to try it out (which I refuse to do). My main concern is the quantity/quality of plug-in presets that Pro Tools 10 has. I am far from a professional in music production, I actually just recently entered the domain of DAW's, so having different types of pre-sets for VST plug-ins such as compressors, EQs, etc., would be pretty much invaluable to me.
I have tried Reaper, and they do have a wealth of presets for the most important plug-ins, just wondering where Pro Tools sits on this one? Any information would be greatly appreciated, thanks. |

Re: PT 10 & Plug-in Presets
I'll let others with more experience comment on the plug-in presets. But I will point out that you cannot run third party VST plug-ins with Pro Tools unless you use some sort of bridge product. Pro Tools does not run VSTs. So you will be limited to plug-ins that come with Pro Tools or that are purchased specifically to be compatible with Pro Tools plug-in format. Just FYI.

Re: PT 10 & Plug-in Presets
Here are the RTAS plugins that come included with Protools 10. Again these are of the RTAS format (Real Time Audio Suite) because Protools does not use Steinberg's Virtual Studio Technology (VST) plugins directly. FXpansion makes a VST to RTAS wrapper utility that allow many VST's to be used in Protools. Also note that Protools will be going to version 11 sometime in the near future and RTAS will no longer be used in favor of the new AAX plugin format.
These are the Virtual Instruments plugins (known as VIs) Big Fish Audio loop library (8 GB) Boom drum machine and sequencer DB-33 tonewheel organ emulator with rotating speaker simulation Mini Grand acoustic grand piano Structure Free sample player (based on Structure) Vacuum monophonic vacuum tube synthesizer Xpand!2 multitimbral synth and sample workstation These are the signal processing plugins 1-Band EQ III 4-Band EQ III 7-Band EQ III AIR Chorus AIR Distortion AIR Dynamic Delay AIR Enhancer AIR Ensemble AIR Filter Gate AIR Flanger AIR Frequency Shifter AIR FuzzWah AIR KillEQ AIR Lo-Fi AIR MultiChorus AIR Multi-Delay AIR Nonlinear Reverb AIR Phaser AIR Reverb AIR Spring Reverb AIR StereoWidth AIR Talkbox AIR Vintage Filter BF76 Compressor 1176 emulator BF Essential Clip Remover BF Essential Correlation Meter phase fixer BF Essential Meter Bridge VU metering BF Essential Noise Meter Channel Strip (based on the System 5 console) Chorus Click Compressor/Limiter D-Verb reverb and ambience DC Offset Removal De-Esser Delay DigiReWire Dither Down Mixer (5.1 to stereo fold down) Duplicate Eleven Free (guitar amp emulator based on Eleven) Expander/Gate Extra Long Delay II Flanger Gain Invert Lo-Fi retro processing Long Delay II Maxim sound maximizer Medium Delay II Mod Delay III Multi-Tap Delay Normalize PhaseScope Ping-Pong Delay Pitch Pitch Shift POWr Dither Recti-Fi harmonic synthesis Reverse SansAmp tube amp simulator Sci-Fi ring modulator Signal Generator Short Delay II Slap Delay II PhaseScope Time Compression Expansion Time Shift time/pitch stretching TL AutoPan panning effects TL InTune digital tuner TL MasterMeter oversampling meter TL Metro versatile metronome Trim Vari-Fi speed shifter

Re: PT 10 & Plug-in Presets
Truth is, you have many options(Pro Tools, Cubase, Sonar, Reaper, Logic, Digital Performer, Studio One........) and all of them are very capable(competition is a good thing). Many of us use PT because we like the way it works(each of the above programs has its own set of quirks, advantages and disadvantages), and many use PT to be compatible with other studios(that's totally up to you on how important that is). Since you are in "audition" mode, I would try Studio One. It gets great reviews and doesn't require an iLok.
