Boz was laughed at when he released his delay. Slate was once lauded and has become a target of ridicule. IK, Izotope are now well-respected but have had periods that they suffered disproportionate criticism. But there are brands that have gone through a period of bashing that seems to escalate to a ridiculous point. it’s about having a loud opinion.ĭo not confuse my respect for the company for praise. It's not about being 'cool', it's about honest findings after years of experience with plug-ins from all makers, not just waves, and how waves got left behind sonically years ago.You understand both can be true, right?įor some people. Their SSL and API stuff are the biggest scam in the plug-in world (after Nebula).īonus points to them for coding their plugs to work properly with AVID ICON systems though (dedicated EQ/Comp sections) not everyone does. Far too black box and a step away, again, towards all eggs in one basket mixing (like Slates STUPID Virtual Mix Rack). Some noob is gonna jump in and mentiond the scheps omni channel, I like scheps (the guy) but this plug-in is stupid. The only stuff I can think of of any use is their utility/generic stuff (meters - VU meters, Dorough, H-Delay's not bad). Their tapes are trash (ok as delays but not as 'tape' - go magnetite, VTM etc) The softube/N.I vintage comps are much better than the CLA pack, and there are others (slate but in a stupid rack sometimes IK etc) Possible exceptions being the PIE and maybe the DBX, but I don't trust waves quality any more. Some just about do the job but they are as generic as they come. Harsher, thinner, narrower, smaller than the rest. Everytime you think you've got a good result you A/B against something else (PSP E27, SlyFi Axis etc) and the waves show once again they make pretty terrible analog 'emulations'. Their eqs suck (every last one) vs the best modern competition. There are a lot of other great things out there as well, so demo everything you can and see what works best for you. I use a lot of Waves plugs, and am generally satisfied with them. I find the Waves Central app really annoying, as it is quite slow and constantly has to be updated. Many of the utility plugs such as C6 are quite useful.

Admittedly I have not pushed it too hard yet, going mainly for warmth, body, and EQ flavor as opposed to heavy saturation. I have been auditioning the Scheps 73 against the UAD 1073 EQ/Pre, and on the relatively limited number of sources I have tried recently I can make the Scheps sound essentially identical to the UAD. I like the Rhodes and Wurlitzer instruments. J37 tape emulator is nice and also good for tape delays. H Delay is a nice, simple to get a good sound, tape style delay. It's certainly not for everything, and is a CPU hog, but when it works it shines.
#WAVES PLUGINS REDDIT SERIES#
Of the signature series I think the Manny stuff is the best regarding the reverb.Ībbey Road Plates is really good if you want a mechanical plate sound (not a digital plate style verb). I've not used the NI stuff to compare them to 2A etc so can't comment on the comparison. I use the helios eq on kick and bass a lot and the dbx is used a lot on drums.
#WAVES PLUGINS REDDIT UPGRADE#
Izotope - Alloy 2, Izotope Nectar 2, Ozone 5 (going to upgrade to 8)Īre there any Wave's plugins you would recommend as worth demoing/buying based on what I already have?I quite like the tape emulations - Kramer and the J37 Voxengo - Marquis, Soniformer, Transgainer NI - VC-2A, VC-76, VC-160, Solid Bus Comp, Solid Dynamics, Supercharger GT Vari Comp
