More info @ Audio Plugin Deals​

 

Any particular reason there came 20$ store credit with the free purchase?

 

20$ ?

 

Thanks @thantrax . I enjoy when you post a thread, always some good news, or some goodies !

 

Yea, once I checked out I had 20$ at the "Rewards Wallet" section.
Might have explained wrong, I am wondering why there is 20$ in there even thought I never purchased anything except the free offer.

 

Marketing (see "How to catch more customers").

 

They are pseudo gifts to encourage the purchase. Do not let the discount exceed 30% of the value of the product.

 

Well I was only in for the freebie anyways.
Btw. I really recommend the Plugin and it sounds somewhat better to me than the "Waves" alternative.

 

That's good but you have to install IK multimedia Authorization Manager.

And yes you receive a 20$ reward, so even if your not going to use this because of IK multimedia Authorization Manager, it may be a good deal. But you cant use this reward to buy another promo. I've tried with MORPHESTRA 2 by Sample Logic, and there is no way to use those 20 dollars in the check out.

it's obvious: if something's free, that means you're the product

 

is this limiting amplifier comp comparable to softube fet ?

 

My favourite 1176 plugin,many thanks @thantrax !

 

Yes they are both 1176 compressor emulations.
This one sounds great,you should try it out if you don't know it yet.It's the only IK Multimedia plugin I use personally.

 

I got a $40 credit... Weird.

 

Probably because you downloaded another free plugin in the past?
I receved the same 40$ coupon,because If I remember correctly they offered Eventide Quadravox for free some times ago that I downloaded.

 

good to kno

 

1176:

Great on bass, vocals, guitars (even D.I. like Black Dog, although that might be more than one 1176) drum bus, kick, snare, piano, even the mixbus, although more likely the drumbus.

A veritable Swiss army knife, even though more people think of the Distressor as that, I prefer the 1176 by a long shot.

My "desert island" compressor.

LA2A: great on bass, vocals, acoustic guitar (sometimes).

Not as versatile, more expensive, and has tubes whereas the 76 is S.S.

I put up a thread here somewhere with files comparing the 1176 Rev "D" with a reissue and the two Purple models.

If I could only have one, I'd pick a good 1176.

76 has those super fast attack and release times so on a drum track you can really get the room "up" in the mix, whereas the LA2A has only input gain and gain reduction controls plus a ratio switch (2:1/20:1).

OTOH, the LA2A is great for stuff that is slower.

If I could only have two compressors, I'd have an 1176 and an LA2A.

 

Next I'll have a look at the new DMG Audio Trackcomp 2.
https://dmgaudio.com/trackcomp#overview
They have added 4 new compressors including a new 1176 rev.A.I read on Gearslutz positive feedbacks about this plugin.

 

i don't want to install t racks 5 on my computer. trash
thanks for the heads up tho op

 

trackcomp2 is the shit...i guess when they final you really dont need another comp installed
