    Thinking about getting the Dynamic Sprectum Mapper V3. Pretty unique Plugin.

    BTW, I gave away my 2nd code. Then the guy who I gave it to said he didn't use it, so I gave it to another guy and he said it didn't work. So then I tested it for myself and it is still valid. ;)

    Lindell 80 is incredibly good, IMHO. Way better than their other console emulators.

    Townhouse, despite its annoyingly bad designed GUI, sounds great as well.

    These two are my favorite.

    What about Purple Audio MC77, is that a good buy?
    I have I already have The Shadowhills Comp Class A and SPLIron.
    Or should i buy Elysia Alpha Comp?
    maybe too many processors ;)

    Yeah, gonna have to use those voucher codes, too :yes:
    Just one problem...

    bx_consoles SSL 4000 E, G
    Focusrite SC
    Lindell 80 Series
    bx_townhouse
    Shadow Hills MastComp Class A (not sure about the busy GUI though? )
    DM BAX EQ
    ENGL E646
    DS Thorn

    These are probably my faves but how can I just pick two?! :dunno:
    Which are your favourite console/channel plugins? If you could only choose one console plugin, which would it be and for what genres? What else from this list would anyone recommend? I'd love to hear your thoughts :wink:

    Edit: OR even, which two console emus would you pick?

    I have two spare voucher codes up for grabs if you can tell me your two favourite PA console plugins, why you like them and what you might use them on. Best replies go into a draw, two winners get a code each :wink:

    ssl e and neve 80, these two are imo the best of what they offer and in general ranked at the top of console plugins.

    Hi, does anyone own the original Shadow Hills compressor and are you using it? I was going to buy it on the Halloween sale but just not sure if I would use it or not. It was between that and the Purple compressor. If you own it would you recommend it. And advice would be helpful. Thank you.

    you dont mean owned the original hardware do you?
    I havent but its basically like an la2a right,
    Brainworx do good emulations and i think apart from that you only have UAD to choose from as a soft emu, i thought sKnote maby do one too?

    My bad, plugin alliance now have two versions of the shadows hill compressor. The first one they are calling classic and the second version they are calling Class A. But only the first classsic version that I called original was available in the Halloween sale.
    I saw a comparison vs Sknote SDC where everyone said the plugin alliance was better. But are people that have them using them?
    The top half optical compression is like an LA2A.
    Then followed by a faster compressor also has three different transformers you can select.
    Still on sale where you can get it for $29.99 just not sure if it would be a go to compressor.

    Since I got JADE from AA, I wouldn't use maag eq from PA anymore.
    I have MEGA subscription, and the fllowing are the mostly I 'using.

    SSL 4K - good for damn toms
    SSK 9K - for all purposes
    Purple MC77 - sheen high-end,for bass and vocal
    Shadow Class A - Punch
    AMEK 200 - transparent but very musical
    Pro DSM-V3 - cool for tone matching
    rooMS
    digital&hybrid
    fielder stage - add modulations to your monitor
    7X-500 - punchy and bright
    V76 - mk ur vocals sound expensive.
    elysia alpha powerful master buss compressor.
    Black HG-2 add depth and analogue-like vibe,also enhance the density of signals.
    spl iron - absolutey beat UAD's manley vari-mu.
    Vertigo VSM - powerful saturation.
    townhouse - some glue.
    Bettermaker EQ232D (VERY BOTTOM-END SOLID THAT DIFFER FROM PULTEC)

    Try them quick before buying.MC-77 is bad in my opinion.When I want a 1176 compressor,I use the IK Black76 (it was free some time ago).

    Alpha Comp is very good but if you already own Shadowhills A and Iron,I think you should look a track compressor instead.Elysia Mpressor and BX Opto are good,I like ACME Opticom too but it's cpu intensive.

    Btw all Elysia plugins are excellent,you can't go wrong with any of them.
