Only thing really missing from the vid is a name list in the description...

I can understand the idea of not wanting to provide URLs, because as a vid creator one doesn't control if a link continues to work or not, but just having the name listed helps because we can simply right click and put the name in a search...

Still, thanks for the vid.

Nice to see Spiral Delay here. It's a pretty simple plugin, but perfectly executed. The UI, the sound, the CPU consumption, and just about everything, is flawless. Definitely a 5/5 stars in my book!

Great selection! I love the toneboosters plugins. Very underated developer, I'd say

Hi ! Thanks for this great video once again ! Love your content!

[vincecrow]

Voxengo PHA-979 has a frequency specific correlation meter in it. It's not as high resolution as Goniometer, it's instead in specific band chunks, but it's still a good one that's been around for a while.

Nice video, several here I haven't seen before and your video got straight to the point of all these plugins thank you! Spiral Delay (#3) looks like the most interesting to me. While Cesium (#10) and Tungsten (#11) sound great, I'm really not a fan of the hardware skeuomorph interfaces. I imagine that if you use a lot of hardware in your workflow then perhaps they are an advantage - but I think the true power of software instruments is breaking free of hardware design limitations. Spiral Delay has a modern software UI that I like. The faders are far easier to see and interact with and the display really helps you visualize what it is doing to your sound. Plugin #13 also looks like it has a great modern UI.

To me putting fake hardware knobs and god those toggle switches are awful and hard to see is a very bad idea. It is like the worst limitations of software (emulation) and the worst limitations of hardware (limited controls) combined into one garbage sandwich. It's like a comedy musical - it's usually not funny AND the music isn't very good. The worst of both worlds.

[HAJJ]

Thank you so damn much for showing these amazing tools!

[YTHalilo]

Great video. Thank you! I am new to the channel. Do you have a video in your library that shows how to get the type of vocals for the voiceover you have in this video? It sounds so crisp. Thanks again.

[ManjyMusic]

Waiting for your video about Sends.. reverb, delay.. cheers 🙌

[WeztMAADmusic]

Burier and More sounds really close to Decapitator, really good alternative if you can not afford those Soundtoys! Thank you man!
