8 | Company | Name + Link | TYPE | Notes | |
9 | Youlean | Loudness Meter 2 | Analyzer | Loudness analyzer / LUFS metering | |
10 | Voxengo | SPAN | Analyzer | Spectrum analyzer | |
11 | Tokyo Dawn Records | TDR Molotok | Compressor | Compressor with built-in harmonic distortion. Provides more "color" than your stock compressor | |
12 | Tokyo Dawn Records | TDR Kotelnikov | Compressor | Usually for mixbus/mastering applications, but this can be used anywhere tbh | |
13 | Klanghelm | MJUC JR. | Compressor | Single-knob compressor. Not the most flexible, but it's super easy to insert and get some compression going | |
14 | Analog Obsession | LALA | Compressor | Based on the Teletronix LA-2A compressor. Super easy to use and a favorite on vocals. Pretty GUI too! (It's prettier than the Waves CLA-2A) | |
15 | Analog Obsession | FETISH | Compressor | Based on the Urei 1176 FET compressor. A free alternative to the Waves CLA-76. Also popular on vocals. | |
16 | Techivation | T-De-Esser | De-esser | Used to tame sibilance | |
17 | Valhalla | Super Massive | Delay / Reverb | Can be used to design both reverbs and delays. Has a bit of a learning curve, so I'd play around with the presets to get a feel for it | |
18 | Valhalla | FreqEcho | Delay | Can be used as a traditional delay plugin, but you can also achieve some very trippy results with the "Shift" knob | |
19 | Camelaudio | CamelCrusher | Miscellaneous | Bit-crusher. I don't use it often but it's great for a low-fidelity effect | |
20 | iZotope | Vinyl | Miscellaneous | the "I am a lo-fi producer and I can't take this off my tracks" plugin. Also good for the low-fidelity vintage effect | |
21 | TAL | Chorus-LX | Chorus | Based on the Juno-60 chorus pedal. Use it for wiiiiiiiiiiidth | |
22 | iZotope | Vocal Doubler | Doubler | Also for wiiiiiiidth | |
23 | TDR(Tokyo Dawn Records) | TDR Nova | Equalizer | Dynamic EQ | |
24 | TDR(Tokyo Dawn Records) | TDR VOS SlickEQ | Equalizer | Three-band EQ | |
25 | Thomas Mundt | Loudmax | Limiter | its a limiter | |
26 | TAL | Reverb-4 | Reverb | its a reverb | |
27 | Softube | Saturation Knob | Saturation | crunchy | |
28 | Klanghelm | IVGI | Saturation | Single-knob saturation plugin like the Softube one above, but a little bit more flexible to use as it has an output and dry/wet knob | |
29 | Slate Digital | Fresh Air | Saturation | High frequency exciter. Based on the Dolby A Trick. Requires creation of a free iLok account. Has the Kurono stamp of approval! | |
30 | XFer | OTT | Multiband Compressor | The MSG of mixing. Can be pushed to the extremes for that hyper-compressed sound, but a little goes a long way. Farhan regularly uses this on his vocal mixes | |
31 | Cockos | ReaLimit | Limiter | REAPER users only. This was released in an October 2021 update. It's pretty neat | |
