PSP plug-ins
Anyone know when the last time they went on sale was? I would like to get a few, I've got most the FF ones. I don't "need" the psp ones. But want would be a good word............
Comments
they were on sale in december 2014 if I remember right, maybe 2015 too but I don't know for sure. I have all of them except the PianoVerb2 which I will surely get too, I just want something I can look forward to.
the PSP plugins are absolutely excellent, if you start using their oldTimer and especially MicroWarmer, you won't be able to imagine how you could live without them in a very short time. the SpringVerb is beautiful if you like the sound of old school spring reverbs and the Echo is a treasure for tape delay lovers.
wait for a sale if you want but I'm sure you won't regret buying these great plugins at their (very very reasonable) full price.
I use PSP Echo a lot, I love it, it's a great alternative to FabFilter Timeless for those times when you just need a simple tape-style delay.
Old Timer is also very useful as a vintage-type compressor, and MicroWarmer is great at adding a little bit of grit and glue to a bus.
MicroWarmer ++
Could anyone give me a quick few bullet points on how microwarmer works?
If I'm completely honest I stick it on the master track, wiggle some knobs and it seems to make everything louder or less loud. That's about as far as I've got with it.
Am I completely devoid of critical listening skills?
Am I just doing it wrong?
Could anyone help?
I'd love that too, Matt. All I know is, it sounds good when I do that.
Piano Verb is a great unit. It's got a very different sounding verb to it, that I quite like for acoustic guitar. I need to pick up SpringVerb at some point, too.
@Matt_Fletcher_2000 Microwarmer is a limiter at heart, so your description is more or less accurate, but as you push the drive harder there are also some tape saturation effects added, listen to the high frequencies and you should hear it, it's particularly noticeable on cymbals.
I'm on the fence about MicroWarmer: Saturn already does tape saturation (among other saturation types and effects) very nicely. On the other hand, adding saturation as things go louder seems what the real thing was about. People on some music gear pages seem to have reviewed Saturn favourably against MW's bigger brother, VintageWarmer 2, and Saturn iOS is essentially the same thing as Saturn for Mac/PC.
A nice comparison of Saturn and VW (and also Decapitator): http://www.inspiringaudio.com/testing-saturation-plugins-vintage-warmer-saturn-decapitator/
It's not iOS folks.
Don't wast your time like stupid me.
(oh yes, and if your still interested, they are rather expensive
)
Lol, @Nubus: the Saturn for Desktop and for iOS are both the same, ipsis litteris, identical plug-in. Every function is there. It's a full port with no dumbing down. The MicroWarmer, on the other hand, is a simplified version of the bigger, famous brother, the Vintage Warmer 2. That's why I posted the link (if you read my previous post you'll understand the context for it).
I get a lot of use from the PSP Echo on guitar and vocals. As @richardyot says, it's excellent for that vintage vibe. I often go to the Old Timer for electric bass and dry drum tracks, excellent. I love the Microwarmer on guitars, bass, and vocals. I'm finding some magic in the high and low knobs for bringing guitars out in a mix. I've also been able to tame some boominess in bass tracks. Love the Microwarmer, but I haven't tried Saturn yet.
I've also got the reverbs, which are also very useful and unique. My stuff is pretty basic rock stuff, so the vintage vibe of the PSP plugs suits my needs right now. If had to pick one, it would be Microwarmer. Can't remember the last sale, but I think I bought the reverbs on sale a year or so ago. Good luck.
P.S.: Saturn for iOS costs, what, $30? I'll keep telling everyone: if you want to master professionally, buy a refurb iPad Air 1, Auria (the cheaper version), all FF plugins, and you'll have the same performance you'd have with a Desktop DAW and the Desktop version of the same plug-ins, for a fraction of the price.
Just to clarify, it is iOS: PSP and FabFilter are available as plugins inside Auria, it sounds like @Nubus wasn't aware of this.
Thanks Richard.
Thanks for the input guys. Appreciate it. I know, just like the Fab Filter Plugs, the PSP ones are worth the asking price.
Pianoverb and old timer are indispensable for me. Wish they'd do the lexicon 42 and 84 delays for Auria; love this in desktop DAW land.
+1 on Microwarmer, +2 on PSP Echo - like a good beer, it goes great with everything
