  • Quantum

    cited in 2 videosfirst cited May 2025positive about it

    “This is Quantum from Waves Factory. If we ignore the bottom section for the moment and just focus on the controls at the top, it seems like it's doing the same kind of thing.”

  • Reaper

    cited in 8 videospositive about it

    “That's Reaper though: it has particularly good plugin delay compensation. Honestly, that's one of the main reasons I made the switch.”

  • Snapback

    speaks highly of it

    “And in this case, layering in samples with Snapback was quicker, easier, and possibly also more effective than trying to add that extra snap and attack with conventional tools like compression and EQ.”

  • Battery
    “…but in this case all my drums are coming from one instance of Battery, so having extreme latency on the snare means I also have that latency on all my other drum tracks”

  • Native Instruments Kontakt
    “Now I'm faking these drums with samples, specifically Abbey Road 80s drummer running in Kontakt, so I had full control over midi velocities, and I'm once again going to leave the Dynamics parameter at 100%.”

    first cited October 2026mixed views on it

    “Here's a free vocal sample that I found on samplefocus.com … Shout out to Enlia, thanks for sharing it, and thanks for not smothering it in effects like reverb like most of the other samples on that site.”

  • Pro-Q 3

    positive about it

    “I find out high frequency monom maker that applied opposing shelves for Mid and side more useful like this setting in proq3”

  • Lexicon PCM 60

    positive about it

    “…it's difficult for me to comment on how accurately they've modeled the Reverb given that the last time I can remember using a real PCM 60 was back in 2008”
