Vst Plugin Dblue Glitch V1.3 (vst)

[Scottie Marberry]

Transparentbrickwall limiter. Such a simple interface, yet it sounds so clean. Very tolerant of loud peaks. Since it's so tolerant though, you should exercise caution when mixing so that you don't mix too loudly.

Quite an excellent EQ plugin. There isn't that much missing from the free version (compared to the "Gentleman's edition"), at least in terms of obviously necessary things (like two extra EQ bands). I appreciate the ability to do mid-side equalization, as that's something that is not available in many EQ plugins out there.

Completely indispensable. This is a simple oscilloscope that shows you what the waveform of your music looks like (and thus how loud things are) before you export it. By using this, you can identify what bass, midrrange lead, and other waveforms look like. It may help you analyze other people's music too, from just their waveforms. Highly recommended!

Pristine, warm, and nuanced sound. The under-the-hood design niches that this involves makes this one of the smoothest delay plugins I've used thus far! Hefty number of presets, and fairly easy to work with.

Excellent glitch plugin for adding an edgy touch to your music. It comes with tapestop, FM, retrigger, shuffling, reversing, gating, delaying, and stretching effects. It's no longer singly available, as it has since been updated, but it IS available as a pack with the other cousin plugins, Crusher, Stretch, and Tapestop. ;)

This is the commercial version of v1.3. Even more flexible, powerful, and useful! One of the effects was reworked and renamed (Shuffler was replaced with Distortion). Also, this was expanded so that you can create over 100 UNIQUE "scenes" that you can switch to via MIDI notes, and EACH scene completely resets each effect, so that you can literally have over 100 variations on the same effect in the same song! So good!

Exceptional analog-modelled compression plugin right here. Nice and punchy algorithms can make your drums more powerful. Makes entire soundscapes more cohesive. Even useful for guitar, bass, and vocals!

Smooth, lush tones to this algorithmic reverb here. Plenty of presets already made, so even if you're new to picking reverb tones, you can have resources already available that are tailored to specific situations, ranging from signature rooms (Lexicon Hall, Valhalla, etc.) to orchestral settings! Very intuitive interface. You almost can't go wrong with this. It's also low on RAM usage.

The physically modeled pianos from here sound pretty diverse. With a little touching up through some reverb, this fits just about any situation you can think of that involves piano. To this day, I still use it for atmospheric, jazz, orchestral/film-score, and even glitch settings.

This excellent bell library comes with unique and diverse timbres that range from glassy and light to metallic and New-Agey. There are also resynthesized patches (percussion, drones, etc.) that can fit well in many contexts OTHER than ambient or otherwise atmospheric music. The in-house reverb and EQ are very well polished, too. Tuned chromatically, and true tuning with tuning knobs (remap of samples rather than repitching).

This has what many other orchestral libraries don't have for the price: dry-ish, close-up, airy recordings for their percussion. Not only that, but these percussion samples are quite detailed. Rolls are executed with the modwheel. Pricey, but well worth it if you have experience with reverb. And even if you don't, there are good close mics, room mics, and hall mics in the full version. Elegant interface and intuitive workflow.

A solo violin library that can also be used as an ensemble violin library, with an excellent level of control. Some of its most unique or useful features include controllable vibrato rate, type, and mix (NOT available in most violin libraries!), as well as bow switch legato and controllable portamento speed. The most flexible violin library that I could find.

Inspiring. Really vast array of diverse sounds for many genres, but primarily ambient or atmospheric. It has some great synthesized electronic and acoustic sounds, tasty reverb, and elegant interface. One of ISW's best libraries, in my humble opinion.

A must-have for any serious cinematic composer, but even then, the samples can be used for non-cinematic contexts if EQed smartly. Extremely well-polished right out of the box, so ideally no EQ is necessary. The Bass synthesizer patch has some diverse and thick timbres as well. The FM and comb filter timbres are especially nice.

A comprehensive sampling of retro game samples compiled into an impressive and extensive synthesizer engine (a ROMpler, but better?), with many customization features like a 64-entry mod matrix, an fx rack, and more!

A set of 5 different types of electric pianos. I stopped at the 3X version with 3 instruments, which is $200, but you could get the 5X if you want, for another $80. These are sampled with 10+ velocity layers! The FX rack is very flexible, the patches are each unique enough that they sound like someone took the time to tweak them well, and the samples come dry with internal FX applied so that you can apply your own by disabling them.

Excellently sampled drums of all sorts, from cinematic, to metallic, to vaguely acoustic. The frequency distribution reaches down quite low (sometimes bracing 20Hz), so you'll have to be aware of those particular samples if you want to use this library to its fullest extent. These are a great asset in the long run. The 3D positioning screen is quite useful, since you can see where your drums are in space when you do certain dry/wet mix edits or panning edits.
