20..WRAP UP.

one of the purposes of this thread was to, as it were,
introduce a 'starter pac' of plugins for someone new
useing rb and maybe new to doing songs..
as i said at beginning there is literally
a cornucopia of plugins one can use in a project.

but i feel in honesty the plugins mentioned and
introduced in this thread anyone should be able to do great
songs with....particularly given the icing on the cake..
ie the very nice synthmaster and sforzando plugins
pg includes plus their own suite of dx plugins.

my focus has been..
1..free plugins AND ALSO...
2..plugins that wont hopefully need a very expensive pc to run
them on....ie low pc resource useage plugins.


let me just suggest something. there are many talented
and gifted dsp programmers out there producing these
products for free. thus if you find a plugin you really
like consider a small donation as a lot of these people
put in looong hours on their products.

in closing heres some added plugins to consider...
(thank you mario for the suggestions...)

1..Aegean symphonic orchestra.

wow is all i can say about this. tested in rb and sforzando recognised it.
the following i havent had time to test sooo i'm afraid youll need to do your own testing.
(note you can google 'sfz instruments' for other libs).

2..Newgrounds.

3..sonivox plugins.

4..lots of plugins at this pg link.
https://www.pgmusic.com/forums/ubbthreads.php?ubb=showflat&Number=745002#Post745002

well thats it from me.
i hope this thread helps people a bit that are new to pg that might be looking for a 'starter pac' of plugins.

in closing...let me say...dont be seduced by all the zillions of
plugins out there otherwise you wont have time to do songs probably..
concentrate on the song itself and whether it seduces the normal music consumer to play your song....ie 'hooks'. i'm still learning after many years and about 200 songs
and demoes etc.
just my opinion. to quote a seasoned producer who schooled me
once 'lots of hit songs were done before plugins'.

PS...other pg users feel free to add your own vst/vsti plugins that are..
..low cost under 50 bucks say or free.
..dont consume lots of pc reources...5% per instance for example re cpu.
..run well in pg products.

happiness.
