Tokyo Dawn has some great stuff that I use all the time, compression, eq and a proximity plugin.http://www.tokyodawn.net/tokyo-dawn-labs/U-he probably has the best sound engines of any softsynth available (I use Zebra and Diva a lot). Here's the freebie version:https://www.u-he.com/cms/zebraletteAnd here's a really useful midi arp which I use a lot to manipulate CC data.http://www.artovaarala.com/download/download.phpHere are a bunch of impulse responses for a convolution reverb (most daws have them):http://www.samplicity.com/bricasti-m7-i ... responses/Here is Flux's freebie transient designer:http://www.fluxhome.com/products/freewa ... ersweet-v3Also, i believe there are free player versions of NI Reaktor and Kontakt...A lot of free and great-sounding stuff out there now.Thanks for these links. Also I cant say enough good things about Protoverb. Very unique sounding reverb vst. https://www.u-he.com/cms/179-protoverb

Trying out the Molot compressor and Limiter n.6 from vladg. Both are getting a thumbs up so far. Good thing they come with manuals. https://vladgsound.wordpress.com/plugins/molot/And anyone who uses impulse responses they need to get the library pack from EchoThief. I tried a couple of stairwells and parking garages on a drum mix. Sounded fantastic. http://www.echothief.com/

TDR Nova and Nova-67P. Get these both. The TDR Nova has been such a game changer for me when mixing. phpBB [media]phpBB [media]

Here's a link to some free VST plugins for processing Ambisonic sound. This is method of tracking audio for VR that uses what is sort of a multi-Mid/Side mic setup called B-Format. If you pull all of the tracks up in regular software they basically destroy each other with phase, but you can use these plugins to route them into a 360 sound sphere. Apparently they only function properly in certain software, like Reaper. Multiple mics can be routed to a single channel sort of like midi. The plugins can then accept the mics as different channel inputs that it can decode to a desired format of output.Pretty interesting stuff. Seems like we will see more of this relatively soon with 360 video/audio becoming more mainstream. Could also be very useful for experimental surround sound performance.

For as good as it is, at that price it's "free".OUR VERDICTA triumph of intuitive design that sounds fabulous and really should cost much more.http://www.musicradar.com/reviews/tech/klanghelm-mjuc-630428
