Hi all,
since the combination of Tracktion 6 and Carla as a VST plug-in works
reasonably stable, I started to record and mix more and more on Linux
(Arch) but I'm still not very familiar with the choice of good plug-ins
available and how to get the best of them.
So, let's start with reverbs: which reverb plugins do you use? Which are
your favourites? In which situation? Do you have any good settings or
presets to share? I can use almost any format, i.e. LADSPA, LV2, Linux
VST, Windows VST 64bit, although I prefer LV2 and Linux VSTs and at
least a basic GUI, since I like it when parameters are labelled properly
and have "real" values, not only 0.0 .. 1.0 ;)
Tracktion has a very flexible routing system, were you can make every
track an aux bus by inserting an aux send plug-in after the source track
and an aux return plug-in before the effect plugin on the aux track.
This makes it very easy to pre- or post-process the reverb signal with
other plug-ins (e.g. EQ or compressor), so to my purpose it doesn't
matter if a reverb pug-in doesn't offer many parameters (e.g. built-in
EQ etc.) as long as it sounds good.
Looking forward to your opinions and ideas!
Chris
