    Yeah, I'm interested in Old Timer or the Spring Reverb. Already have Microwarmer and the Fabs minus DS and Gate.

    So...Old Timer or Spring Verb?

    Personally I have not managed to make Old Timer do much for me (and I love Microwarmer). Have heard others mention how much they appreciate it though. Perhaps someone else might add some sort of testimonial as to its efficacy etc.

    I've not got old timer in auria yet, but I have it on my laptop, few things it shines at is used as a leveller for vocals, instruments and the like. To use it as a leveller set the time knob to 7+, depending on how much you want to bring down the louder parts and bring up the quieter parts, set the ratio and compression knobs to taste, higher values clamping down on the louder parts more, compensate if clamping down quite a bit with the volume knob.

    Also quite handy on a bus if you want to give a few elements some compression and the same colour, use the valve setting and the tiny valve knob to add more or less of the tube emulation. One other thing I find it handy for is working with drums, individual hits, or loops. I use the time knob between 0-3 for drums and adjust the tiny knob above it to add a quicker attack, which is to the left, for smoothing off spiky transients. Or if I want to keep the punch of the drums intact, dial it to the right, find you can push old timer a lot before the sound falls apart.

    Thank you very much. I'm adding this into my smarter than me document.

    @JRSIV, good review of the built-in PSP compressor. I find myself using it more than the Pro C2, specially the buss compressor, because they run really light on the CPU and sound as legit vintage emulations.

    Yeah the psp's sound great. Use them on channels, drum buss and mix channel. I like them so much i haven't even really researched the other compressor/eq's that are available

    I'm a little late to the horses-party, it seems, but: as is well with our four-legged friends over here. Just thought I'd mention the not-multitouchability (and even then felt pretty quiet and comfy). Good musicmaking, everybody, cheers, t

    That would be a mistake herr goodyear and may bring your document into disrepute (just about to start my annual binge watching the man in the high castle)

    To be fair, I've had it a while and hardly used it, been messing with it lately and I'm impressed, most my compressors crap out on me when I push them, old timer held out well, just waiting for a psp sale now.

    Okay, so I got 4 of the plugins so far and will share my thoughts on each.

    -Saturn - Multiband Distortion with many different flavours (saturations, tapes, amps, bit reduction, etc). Has modulation options as well as sidechaining. For instance, my latest track, I used this on a subbass with two bands. The lower is using gentle saturation to fatten the lows, and the upper us using some amp setting so the bass can also be heard on cheap speakers.

    -Pro-MB - Multiband Compression AND Expansion, or you could just use one band if you wish. It's up to you. This also has sidechaining capabilities, multiple phase modes (minimal, dynamic, linear), and other good capabilities like modulation.

    -Pro-Q 2 - While there are many semi-decent EQ apps and AUs, this thing has spectrum matching which comes in handy for mastering purposes. You can also EQ left and right separately for stereo separation effects or you can EQ mid-side separately depending on the needs of a track.

    -Pro-L - The most transparent limiter. I ramped up one of my dance tracks up to -3dB RMS with minimal distortion (not that I'd actually squash my tracks that much in practice, but in theory it's absolutely possible). This thing has inter-sample peak detection to help you adjust the output gain so as to avoid distortion when converting to MP3/M4A formats as well as dithering options for downsampling to 16-bits for CD burning purposes.

    Not bad so far. I'll probably be completing my set eventually. The Pro-G and Pro-DS plugs look alright, but I bet Pro-MB can handle those types of operations just fine. Pro-C 2 has a few different compression modes, which is something Pro-MB doesn't have. I'm REALLY looking forward to timeless and its advanced creative delay functions (including time stretching?!?) and Volcano 2 with its advanced filtering functions. I might just snag Micro just for the hell of it in case I need some simple filter functions where Pro-Q 2 isn't needed (shaving off the low end of the instrument subgroup for instance).

    These things are also automatable, have advanced modulation routing, and with Twin and One as well as various ways to edit audio sources, I have no doubt I can shape some really sick Soundscapes like when Sir Goodyear and I did that small collab back in June 2015, but even far more advanced than that. Sooooo...I will be sharing my thoughts on the rest soon. Meantime, I highly recommend the four I got so far. Cheers.

    I just googled, and PSP actually sells the BussPressor that we can use in Auria as a separate plug-in for Mac/PC. Apart from the beautiful, VintageWarmer-like GUI, it's the same plug-in with the same parameters. It's sold for $99, something we Auria users have for free by buying the app. It's mind boggling how much value we get for meager $50!! I wonder how Rim managed to pull it off!

    I hear you, I wasn't gonna say anything because I'll look unhinged but the wife called & asked what I wanted for Christmas earlier and I said "just maybe some recording stuff, don't worry I am fine though, very happy to just have you dear" VERY TRUE! but yes it never hurts to say. She says "No you get whatever you want, I insist."...

    No sooner was I off the phone then the Auria store was open and I just pressed buy on FabFilter's C2...lol! We really should start an Music App Anonymous group over here. The damn thing was mocking me, being on sale...

    @theconnactic is right about the extreme value that Auria is. Same algorithms & software going for $180 on VST is $24 on iOS. Very hard to turn down, especially if you do the "hey, the PSP channels included, the IR reverb, etc...".

    But its totally what I get on my wife about. She'll buy a pair of shoes because they were 20 bucks but used to be 100. So in that logic she still has 80 to spend, you know? Lol...You like have to buy more because you WOULD BE spending more but the kickass sale is on!

    I guess I feel better blood letting. But the 15 min I spent with C2 was ridiculous. It can do different modes like opto, tube, pumping etc and you can HEAR the difference like on a hardware unit. I will still use PSP comp but man...this thing is viscious.

    Yes, I've been watching the videos, but there's a world of difference in watching an 'expert' view and hearing from a fellow IOS musician discovering for himself the pros and cons of these filters.

    I've owned Turnado and Wow for the least 3 years or so, and I occasionally go back to them, but every time walk away shaking my head as I find them impossible to control with any degree of subtlety. They are great for sound mangling, but not for much else.

    I don't have Wow but I do have Turnado.

    Like most SB stuff, you can double tap to zoom in. That's especially useful in the Edit section (here I tapped on the Edit under FreezeVerb ...

    ... and then double tapped to zoom

    ... when you want to make fine-control changes to a particular effect. Works inside or outside Auria Pro (i.e. in the standalone version too).

    Once zoomed you can scroll around with your finger.

    I'm seemingly having a bitch of a time trying to get Pro-C 2 to sidechain and I think I will address this in a separate topic. By the way, this has NOTHING to do with me not knowing how to get sidechaining to work from a MIDI channel via bussing as that trick works. This is about Pro-C 2 not acting as expected whereas Pro-MB DOES act as expected.

    Useful to know. How are you finding Pro-MB to work with? Easy, middling or hard. Does it make a difference to your work that you can easily hear? A before and after demo video would be really handy.

    Have always been put off Pro-L by the (relative) price, but have now bought it and it's an immediate plus for me, especially on vocal tracks. Wish now I had had it to hand over this past year or two and feel finally like going back and remixing/remaking some things....

    I know this isn't a fab filter, but it is one of those available within the auria pro store.

    Picked up Turnado last night and really like it. Was mostly playing within AUM and Modstep with it.. mostly just trying out presets, a few tweaks, and mostly X/Y pad controllers.

    Went to Auria Pro to confirm it'd been activated there too, and it has. But, I noticed that when I use it in AP... I don't get the X/Y Pads controllers like I do when using it as an IAA within AUM?

    I don't have Timeless yet. Toying with either Timeless or Saturn. Running out of credit and might have to just pick one for now. I want iWavestation too. If I get more credit as xmas gifts, maybe I'll get more. Gotta cut myself off for a good while very soon though.
