When the Beatles went into Abbey Road there were entire rooms with columns and plates and chambers just to get some reverb. Their plugins were literally the size of a house.

Now, you can get many of the same effects they used and 900 to 3,000 others (or more, but I only have 900) from plugins on your laptop.

Producers are people who pick and choose and aren't married to one thing. They are constantly experimenting.

Yes, Reaper has some good stuff and I use it. But there are some things Waves plugins can do that others can't, and the same with Ozone, IK Multimedia and others.

I like having lots of choices. Very, very specific choices.


Exactly. We use nothing but a suite of Logic Pro, Waves and Izotope FX via presets curated by us. A lot of these presets were to match as much as possible sounds we used got during our analog recording days. These specific choices have at the least enabled us to dig into and learn the in's and out's ( smile ) of these products. Meaning we do not have to experiment every time we work on a production. The older I get the more I avoid new rabbit holes!
