Neumann U87 + LA2A Compressor = Chef's kiss
We experimented while recording vocals for my song "Anne". The signal chain was a Neumann U87 into an analog emulation of the legendary LA2A by Warm Audio soft patched into the Neve Desk and printed in Pro Tools. The result was surprising and so wonderfully pleasing. We set the box for compression and not limiting. The box was not squashing anything that we could perceive or observe on the meter. The vocals were merely getting some nice warm characteristics. Maybe it is me and my engineer not being that good at producing and recording yet, but we could certainly feel the difference. It was one of those things that we could feel but could not exactly describe. We say this because this was not the our first time using the U87 microphone. Since the inception of this project, we have been heavily reliant on that legend. We have used it as a primary mic, as a pair in different settings, as a vibe mic for drums, as a vibe mic for my guitars, amps, and what have you! Hence, we are definitely a bit used to its sound. But this recording! This recording was really special. And we know we did not invent anything, and this has been the industry standard for years. But this was fun, and just the fact that we won't have all this outboard gear and the GOATed microphone for any further use after a couple of weeks KILLS!
Until next time,
P.

NEOLD (via Plugin Alliance) gives us an LA2A emulation, with a few gentle curves thrown in. Oh wait, not an emulation, a "homage".

How to get free uad plugins

HOW TO GET FREE UAD PLUGINS PSP
All of their plugins are at least worth trying their CMX beat Logic's stereo widener ten times over, for example. Also, Bombardier, their bus comp, is excellent. Bad Bus Mojo is literally designed to add subtle, console-bus style nonlinear distortion, and it sounds great. Stillwell makes a lot of good plugins, and has a very agreeable demo policy to boot (free to try until you buy, and you should because they rock). It has "that" sound, to me, which is worth paying for. I have 2 days left on my demo of it, and I'm definitely thinking of buying it.

The PSP E27 is very coloured, and includes control of transformer and amplifier saturation.
HOW TO GET FREE UAD PLUGINS SERIES
Then again, Neve is getting pretty old, so if it sounds good, who cares? Also: they just released a plugin model of the Avedis E27 EQ, one of the premier not-transparent-at-all EQs of the 500 series format. Vintage Warmer, however, is another classic it's definitely getting old though. I use their Pultec emu, and it's a good EQ, but nothing you can't do with Pro-Q and some other saturation. I slammed drums with it a week ago, though, and it sounded good, so experiment. Klangheim IVGI (free there is a premium counterpart that has more saturation modes): awesome saturation. but generally, Decapitator gets "light colour duties" and that's where it shines. Used heavily, the Culture Vulture emulations are alright for sound design. The Ampex emulation is alright, too, but it doesn't touch Satin. Used lightly, the Chandler and Neve saturation emulations are very useable. Sometimes, I just push it as far as I can into the red and it just sounds warm, gooey and bombastic. When it comes to spicing up electronic drum loops with living tape colour, I find it incredibly easy to use but at the same time remarkably flexible. U-He Satin: it's different than Kramer Tape (Waves) or UAD's tape stuff, and it's different than Slate VTM (requires iLock), but it's amazing. Here's what I use for colour, because colour is where it's at: My answer would, other than the odd Waves plugin that suits you, be: neither. Also, some of the filter modes on Volcano are quite coloured and respond to being pushed hard.īut do expand your options from UAD or Waves. I personally think Fabfilter plugins are great but their presets suck sometimes, so make your own colour presets! If you want even more analog-ish random variance, make a few bands and modulate parameters slightly with free-running LFOs etc. Saturn is also a great colour box - just turn the mix % down low and play with warm tape and tube modes. You said in another post that you have the fabfilter plugins, and that's great! They have transparency pretty much covered for you. Their 1176 is nice and quick, and I get good (IMO anyways) vocal sounds with a combination of their 1176 + LA2A. I have a couple Waves plugins, and they do what I want them to. I personally hate hardware dongles of any kind, so I don't use iLock stuff or UAD. The attitude espoused by many (check out gearslutz for fierce debates) is that UAD sells plugins with a glorified dongle.
HOW TO GET FREE UAD PLUGINS PRO
A lot of people who don't understand DSP all that well say, "blah blah blah hardware accelleration, that's why you need the UAD card" but it's not like that UAD card is somehow more powerful than the DSP you can get out of a brand new Mac Pro or whatever. I will go against the grain of a lot of people here and say that UAD is probably overrated. I don't own any, but Greg's hardware stuff is mindblowingly good and easy to use, so I assume his plugins are top notch as well. Producing Basics (Compression, EQ, Staying Motivated included here!)Īs /u/thebishopgame mentioned, Kush is probably great if you don't mind the iLock dongle. These rules, are in place to keep content fresh, current, and moving forward, not to denounce your post as Incorrect or stupid. Remember, everything is subjective, and there are no rules when it comes to making music.
