Quotes


FireCobra

Firecobra is great, it’s like that mythical “better” button we used to joke that should be included on every mixing console! It’s really good for adding warmth and verve to cold signals and just bringing some character and life to things.

Royal Compressor

I love the Royal Compressor, it’s about time someone made a really great plug-in for that great old classic compressor, and this one hits the spot! It’s wonderfully outrageous on drum ambience!

Hyperspace

Hyperspace is a really inspiring reverb, great for unusual and creative spaces as well as providing great ambience and depth when used with more conventional realistic reverb settings. Lots of good presets, especially some of the wacky Abstract ones.

Front DAW

This is a pretty subtle warming effect which is surprisingly great for helping things sit together in a mix - very quick and simple to use.

Retronaut

I’ve recently been looking for something to convincingly make all those great distressed-sounding effects that I keep hearing on records. You know the stuff – random flutters, deep LFO pitch wobbles, and tonal degradation. I’ve been considering various expensive boutique pedals… But having just downloaded Retronaut, it absolutely delivers all that stuff – and more – in one place. It’s a wonderful tool with fantastic presets, and it’s quick and easy to use.
