    come on, such claims make zero sense, all Macs currently sold by Apple are using Apple Silicon and so Bootcamp isn't supported, using Crossover/Parallels leaves so much performance on the table it would be just easier to get a PC instead,
    running plugins externally is a terribly inefficient way to work with audio too

    Well, Relab sounds awesome but it isn't really focused on plate reverb. Superplate is on a tier of its own when it comes to plate so I'm going to say... yes. It's better when it comes to plate sound and features.

    Also someone mentioned Youlean Loudness Meter Pro. Awesome deal when it's on sale. Lifetime updates and it gets better with each update.

    It all comes to personal preference really.. depends on your workflow. Unless you mention the type of work you do that these plugins are going to help to.. it's like throwing a rock in the dark.

    No, such comments make zero sense. The OP is not asking for your input on what computer he is using. And as you know, of course I certainly am not. Try reading the first post in the thread. Ignored.

    I recommend getting the entire bundle instead of just Arbiter. It really isn't much on top of that, and all plugins are very useful. I especially like Infrasonic, the dynamic bump button can sometimes save you one or two plugins in the chain.

    Soothe is not available on sister site.
    I looked again and there is nothing.
    I will probably buy it since it's really amazing

    Check the Russian tracker instead. Though, I would say that SpecCraft is actually better than soothe nowadays.

    I just made this thread since the plugin market is a trending topic the black friday's days, it could be helpful for anyone to know what the people here has to say, and in this case the more open the question is, the better.

    Thanks everyone, I got thrilled for the TDR Special Filters Bundle, it seems an amazing deal worth every penny.

    I got Slate Trigger ($50), Sonnox Oxford Limiter, Sonnox Oxford Drum Gate. Will most likely grab the TDR Special Filters bundle.

    Considering grabbing the Apogee Opto-3A ($50), but it'd be somewhat of a gamble since the demo bugged out on me and I can't find any good examples online.

    Well, in that case, the Special Filters Bundle is on sale for 39$ as well.

    I don't understand the premise of this post: You're open to use of sister site options, but you want to deliberately go out and use something else that is not there? Do you just have money burning a hole in your pocket or something? Anyone who can't do their best work with what is available on the sister site is probably in trouble. Now, if you object to use of sister site options, that is fine, I understand, but in that case, why would it matter whether the products are available there or not? So I don't know what you're getting at here.

    This is precisely the reason for Black Friday sales, coupled with the fact that many people have that day off from work.

    Sister Site gives you a chance to try before buy plugins where a standard demo period is not enough to make a decision. Or to try things you might not normally be able to afford. If something is not there, it's because it is either too expensive for others to share it, the protection is too good for "extended demo versions", or because they are kept internal for any other reasons.

    Black Friday deals are usually some of the best sales of the year. Why don't you go ask the developers why they have picked that day? How many years have people requested Oxford inflator, over and over and over again? You can buy the thing for 20 bucks and be done with it.

    You're just making assumptions, in the first post I didn't asked for something in particular to make my production better, also I'm not objecting the resources avialable in the sister site I use them everyday lol, maybe I won't buy anything at all. As I said, these black friday's days the plugin market becomes a trend, and it could be useful to have a guide to get quality plugins keeping in mind that there's lots of resources in the sister site. Also it doesn't hurt to know what music production tech here the producers use and discuss about that...

    Honestly, MeldaProduction and Strymon Bigsky.

    Pricey but absolutely worth it.
