Quotes
Autoformer
With Autoformer, I can get a finished sound which we otherwise take me a whole plugin chain, and a lot more time-it kills on vocals and instruments
Relooper
Whoa-a truly creative, original plugin capable of much delicious weirdness-I love it!
Bassment
I love it! Can't even leave the default preset, it's perfect!
Biverb
Not like standard reverbs-Biverb is capable of creating very unique colors and vibes!
Cryostasis
Cyberdrive takes a unique approach to distortion and fx that gives me sounds I wouldn't anticipate-creative but very usable!
Cyberdrive Core
This scaled down version is surprisingly versatile-was able to create a serious vibe on drum bus using the default warm tape, both filters and mixed in 30%-nice!
Electrum Core
With just a couple clicks I found the right tone for a pop/rnb track I was working on, and being able to use it in low latency mode is everything!
Cyberdrive
I slapped CyberDrive on the instrumental bus of this song, and the whole thing came alive-fatter, bigger, warmer, while not burying the vocal (once I dialled back the mix %), and I'm not taking it off.
DarkFire
DarkFire can bring a source to life in ways nothing else can-it's special.
Duoflux
Within two seconds I loved the default preset on keyboards-another winner from United!
Electrum
With just a couple clicks I found the right tone for a pop/rnb track I was working on, and being able to use it in low latency mode is everything!
FireEQ
FireEQ is special-I'm using it right now to add clarity, punch, depth and energy to a mix just by pushing up random faders and turning knobs slightly-I can't make it sound bad!
FireMaster
I use Firemaster on nearly every song–the 'depth' knob alone is well worth the price, and the CPU hit is miniscule!
FireMaximizer
FireMaximizrer brings excellent instant results on par with all my favourite finalizers
FireSpacer
I already was using a well-known plugin for masking/mix clarity, but FireSpacer is more transparent and allows for more precise control- a mixing must-have!
Lofinity
Lofinity is capable of a wide range of unusual sounds-far beyond the standard lofi plugin
MasterMind
I get shocking results in no time with this-each module has a wide range of effective use, and the match EQ is crazy even in small doses!
MorphVerb
Whoa! Just when I thought I had all the reverbs – first Verbum now this, gonna be used constantly.
Phantomix
Phantomix is not just another multi-fx, it adds movement to beat loops like nothing else in my arsenal
Plamen
Plamen is really good for adding energy to a source while at the same time helping it sit in the track.
Pluralis
In a market full of delays, Pluralis is giving fresh inspiration.
Quick AG
My new go-to for making a boring Di acoustic into a usable sound in seconds
QuickVox
Like all the 'Quick' series, QuickVox lives up to it's name-I had several pro vocal chains to choose from in seconds
Randomachine
I already have several multi-fx, but RM brings a fresh approach where I was able to get what I was looking for right away without a lot of tweaking. Straight to the favourites folder!
UniChannel
Unichannel always comes through when I want to add analog character, tone shaping and control to any sound source.
