Man, GR-16looks really great. I haven’t pushed the button just yet. I know it’s not AUV3 (yet?) but it’s packed full of cool features. I use Digistix religiously and know that it’s a not an equal comparison. I’m a drum junkie so it wouldn’t hurt to jump in.

How does it hold up in AUM? I have an iPad Pro that can handle what I throw at it.

Next thing I’m looking at is magicdeatheye but I’m hearing a new version (stereo) coming out soon for iOS. Might need to hold off.

The fabfilter apps always tempt me but I’ll more than likely hold off. I usually like to hand of finished songs to someone else to master and possibly mix.

    I also don't really know what I'm doing in terms of mastering yet. So maybe better to stick with toneboosters which are much cheaper than ff. The danger with ff is that, let's say it takes you a year before you actually start it them after buying it, pro q 3 could already have been replaced by 4, and their upgrades don't come cheap either! Their EQs definitely are nice though. I got the reverb too, I think it was a waste of money for me, I find myself using other reverbs more.

    Good point

    Interesting, you’re not impressed with the FF reverb or just not the style of reverb you prefer?

    Oh, I’m definitely not saying it’s not good, it’s great. I don’t know, maybe I jut felt after I got it that I didn’t really need it after all, I think there are already lots of very good, and cheaper, reverbs available on iOS.

    GR16 is fun but if you're a drum junkie then Drambo is likely a better fit, giving you both sample, slicing and drum synth options that you may either build for yourself or kindly ask the community for help.
    There's already a number of drum synth user creations on
    https://patchstorage.com/platform/drambo/.

    When I find the time, I might have a go at the MDE compressor in Drambo.
    I don't need one atm so it might take a while.

    Toneboosters plugins are excellent. I've been working with FF plugs in Auria and while I found them excellent too, since I got the TB incarnations, I'm no more really missing them.
    TB plugs are deep and they've done their job well, except that I'm missing the dynamic expansion mode found in FF Q3 that is not available in TB EQ. Talked to the TB guys about that but they didn't add it yet. Anyway, most people probably don't even know when and how to use dynamic EQ bands 😅

    The FabFilter apps are cream of the crop in terms of mixing and mastering. However, ToneBoosters have very similar high-end apps that are cheaper in price. ToneBooster apps are also universal. In so many ways do I prefer Barricade to Pro-L2. However, I prefer Pro-Q3 to TB Equaliser for the simple fact Pro-Q3 has dynamic EQing as well as EQ Spectrum matching.

    I have MagicDeathEye mono, and it's an amazing plugin. It's also universal. :) I have a feeling the current mono version and the stereo version will differ in how they compress incoming signals, but it's late at night, so what do I know? :lol: My brain is mush.

    If you like Digistix, you will LOVE GR-16. You can adjust so many parameters per note (including offsetting each note to play slightly off grid, randomizing velocity, and other parameters you can muck about with). And yes, GR-16 is also universal.

    "I use an iPad Pro. What's up with recommending me universal apps?"

    Because mucking about with an iPad in bed is a strain on the hands, lol. Just pop the iPhone into Airplane mode and have at it. "Well, why airplane mode?" One - so you're not tempted to hang on Facebook when you want to produce. (Okay, maybe that's me then, lol.) Two - cant be arsed with robocalls.

    Right, speaking of apps I recommend, give BarkFilter a shot. Slap a gain/volume slider plugin followed by BarkFilter on a drum bus, adjust the gain of the volume slider plugin until the sound isn't so squashy and gets its punch back = instant drum buss magic. ;) And yes, BarkFilter is universal. :lol: Cheers.

    ff q3 auv3 is a masterpiece. eq matching ffs.

  • GavinskiGavinski

    oh wow, didn’t know it had that, unfortunately i just have q2, and didn’t yet decide to upgrade because of this pricing shenanigans related to the bundle:

    Back when the FabFilter bundle was released I already had ProQ-2 so I just got the full FabFilter Bundle instead of getting the ProQ-3 'update' with both ProQ-2 and ProQ-3. The Price for Pro-Q3 in the full bundle was about the same as it would be if I would update ProQ-2 to ProQ-3 but then I would have not gotten the bundle at reduced price...

    Sure the full bundle is on the higher side when it comes to iOS prices but I don't regret it at all.
    If price is an issue the ToneBoosters plug-ins are worth considering although their UI is not as smooth and easy on the eyes :)
    (The FabFilter stuff is not available for iPhone either so if that is important go with ToneBoosters).

  • GavinskiGavinski

    Yes, that’s why i didn’t upgrade to q3, because i thought it might be better to just get the whole bundle, but have held off til now. There has been more than enough good stuff released recently to quench the appmonster’s thirst, maybe some day soon when I start earning more again, lol

    I’m not criticising Gr-16 as it does exactly what it sets out to do, but you really need to like the hardware groovebox workflow to love it.

    In order to keep everything on one screen it copies the hardware’s tiny screen and menu, edit, up down buttons and a scroll wheel UI.

    You’ll know if this workflow suits you or not.

    Most people seem to love it. It does what it does very well and it also sounds really good and makes it easy to sound like 1995. In a good way.

    It’s main benefit is that it’s just like a hardware groovebox.

    It’s main drawback is that it’s just like a hardware groovebox. :-)

    I would happily buy a single channel auv3 version of it. If Jim P. Ever makes a GR-1 I’m all over it :lol:
