Excellent point. Developers, please take note.

It’s fascinating how it isn’t yet

Absolutely

It's not so trivial with non-linear processing.

for ANY plugin, not only in mastering.

Was thinking the same

This is great! :)

“Heating up”…I see what you did there

It has always been relatively inconsistent, but I don't mind since the quality is always there and top notch.

He's out of control. Or bored.

"Perhaps that should be a consideration as well" oh dear I just can't stop laughing!! ^^^^

"Get in the bin!" Had me rolling! 🤣

I mean... it's a totally valid observation haha

I don't understand why they can't make two GUIs or even slightly different versions of the plugin: One for people who demand a close emulation of the original hardware, and another for people that want to make music without frustration.

In the pocket of Big-Iconography. I knew it.

If they were clever, they did.

Some companies, Tokyo dawn, Fabfilter, Ursa, and others already have.

nothing by PA sounds like hardware, just a cash grab company for people who think they are getting quality for cheap

@@Nipogadzauba I like some PA Plugins so I guess I am just one of those people! Classy man, super classy. You are certainly entitled to your opinion but to judge others because they don't share your opinion is a bit immature don't ya think? Dan said he likes the plugin too so I guess he doesn't know quality when he hears it either? This plugin sounds great man, all I was saying is that I thought it was funny that Maor had said this. If you go on the website and look at the description they don't make any outlandish or wild claims. I respect them for that. Yes, there are several PA plugins that just aren't very good but there are some real gems there too. I guess I'll just keep being deaf and stupid tho so thanks! 🤡😂

@@matt_nyc_audioengineer Sure man, Did not want to come off like this, I meant it is obvious they are targeting aspiring producers and musicians, mixers that can't afford UAD or DMGAudio, those things are expensive so PA just release something new all the time, but it is the same shit over and over, how many saturators or EQs do you need, especially not so good ones, they use predatory marketing tactics to sell lots of cheap plugins to people who don't really need them to make great hits, it is not about the plugins, they are just using GAS to make tons of cash on poor musicians who do not know better yet, thats all. Sure some professionals use them, but it is not their main market.

@@Nipogadzauba Well, that I can agree with. Most of the bundle I get is nothing but filler and lately, they have just been pumping out new stuff and most of it is useless or wasn't ready to be released. The new AMEK eq for example. If you look in Plugin Doctor, the old one and new one are almost exactly the same plugin except the new one has more bugs lol. I absolutely agree there are more HQ tools out there for the most part. I think they keep pumping out the same crap because people eat it up. Instead of focusing on the quality, they are focusing on quantity. Never a good look. I feel Acoustica is much the same recently. Never got much into their stuff but lately, I feel like they are releasing something new a few times a month lol. Everything is buggy too. I beta test for several companies and the companies I work with test their plugins till they are beaten to death! We find all the bugs and work out the kinks before it's released. I think part of the problem may be that they opened up their betas to basically anyone willing to pay at this point. That doesn't help anything lol. Your beta team should consist of people who know how to beta test and what to look for. That's how you release quality products. This way they get a false sense that everything is ok or bombarded with issues which makes it hard to focus on the real core issues. I don't like the path they have gone down recently if I am being honest. I think I am going to change my subscription and get a license for the few plugins I use and not look back. I mix professionally and I use a few of their products but not on every mix. Not even on most mixes lol.

I agree with most things said here, 90% of PA stuff i don't care for, and all the EQ's sound the same for me. But I found this one was special, and it does do things that others can not. I don't care if it sounds like anything, it sounds good.

100% I never touch the TMT on all of PA plugins that have it. On the other hand, Dan’s suggestion is logical and I would use it most of the time.

Yup.

In Reapack: amagalma_Toggle wet 0-100% (or current value) for focused FX

It's just a gimmick unfortunately

How about signal tolerances divergence and call it std.

@@MixedbyJoshua It does exactly what it says it does. Changes the eq curves on the left and right channels slightly. Works great for individual stereo tracks, not always on the 2bus.

would be redundant with the beast the Oven is.

We should call it Critical Race Tolerance to annoy the anti woke brigade (otherwise known as racists).

I don't know if it helps, but PA has temporarily opened for the registration for Forever29 again, I think you may wanna take a quick look to it. Hope that helps. Good luck.

Ugh, of course PA would be stubborn as well as incompetent regarding GUIs. That’s infuriating.

Have you tried writing to Damian Lewis to tell him to spell his name like the original hardware? ;)

these improvements can be implemented without ruining the fun of fiddling with knobs

me too..I just map my SSL UF8 knows to them, and close my eyes....

they are not free - if you didn't donate, you basically got them illegally. he is asking for a donation - that's not free. You just took it.

​@@levondarratt787 All I mean is, there are many bedroom musicians out there who are young and just starting out and have little money, and plugins which CAN be acquired for free without resorting to piracy appeal more than something like UAD. Therefore the reviews skew towards being less experienced on average than reviews for expensive options. When I say they're free, I don't mean to imply anyone shouldn't donate.

@@levondarratt787 I'm almost completely sure that isn't true. To quote his Patreon page's description, "My plugins are now available exclusively on Patreon, and they're free!... For just a few dollars a month, you can help me to devote more of my time to developing new and exciting products." It's certainly good to donate once you are capable and have the resources to do so, but AO makes it really clear that you don't have to. I certainly think he does this to enable more people to have access to good plugins, and I do think that's a pretty cool cause :)

@@ey3600 hmm interesting.....felt like teh guitar case with dollar bills next to the musician...if you lingering more than 30 seconds or keep looking, you're supposed to put a few bucks in his case....it' free technically - but he stands there for a reason, and the guitar case has dollar bills in it. But I get your point.

+1 for the request. I've been going Dan will look at AO for a while now!

Truth.

Totally agree, I stopped purchasing plug-ins when they did not bother fixing known bugs.

I can't get "Flow" to do anything different from the output knob. It just... makes things too quiet.

At least try the demo... This guys just rants for clicks ya know... He can be so ridiculous it's comical at times lol. I'd even say if you like what the physical unit did, you'll like the plugin as well.

Ha!

someone says this under every single on of his videos hah

100%! Nailed it.

same. i haven't finished watching yet, but I'm sure you're right. Edit: thanks for the confirmation that I already have enough saturation plugins.

I hit like before the video even plays

Seconding this!

I'd love to see him do the DC8C3.

@@weeschwee me too!

I second this. These are true gems. I've tried many saturation plugins, but I keep coming back to SDRR and DC8C is a workhorse.

you missed out. We don't know of any successful work you have done in music.

what make you think it doesnt oversample internally? Most PA stuff does.
