In electronic music, many sounds are very much "upfront". OTT is what many choose for this purpose.
However, I have found that Varisaturator is much better in place of OTT when it comes to this purpose. Much more controllable and much smoother (even though OTT is multiband compression and Varisaturator is multiband saturation/inflation) In most cases where I would choose OTT, I am using Varisaturator instead for the same purpose and it does the job much better. This small change has improved my mixes for electronic music a lot.
Second thing is soft clipping with OVC-128 on buses to smooth and contain, then followed by high end expansion with Soniformer to rebuild some dynamics and transients is an amazing combination. Smooth, contained and dynamic.
Always finding new relationships and uses with your plugins, thanks!
Oh my gosh! This is amazing. I have been recording in my home studio for over 8 years and I have always gotten a hollow, narrow, non-professional sound, no matter how hard I tried. I use good (mid-grade) pro-audio equipment, a quality mic, and decent sounding instruments, however I could never get that professional glaze. I am a female vocalist, and due to the natural timbre of my voice, combined with my soprano range, my vocals always seemed to sound hoow, with too much reverb and echo (and nor because I added that either). I bought the voxformer, harmoniEQ, varisaturator, and polysquasher, and downloaded some of the free applications as well. The difference is remarkable. I just bought these yesterday- I installed them and worked with them til about midnight last night, then set the CD to burn while I slept. This morning, I took a listen and WOW. It sounds like it was done in a professional studio. Most of that came from the voxformer and harmoniEQ. Now, I will clean up the little things and add the final gloss with the varisaturator and the polysquasher. All I can say is "thank you". After many dead end searches, I finally found the products that work.
Your products are amazing!
From your incredibly useful free-plugs to the very cheap and fantastic sounding payplugs.
I am recommending your company to anyone who'll listen, so please keep up the good work!
All the best,
