Just wanted to draw your attention to this bundle of free VSTs by Dustin Ralston, as I haven’t seen them mentioned here yet.
Entirely coded in C++ , awesome GUIs , stellar quality, 32 & 64 bit.
My favourites of the bunch are
Mono/Stereo channel (an extensive VU metering and then some)
Dual Panner (a feature that I was considering to request for Podium’s mixer)
and Transient (much better that Flux Bittersweet IMO)
There’s also Polarity, Crosstalk and Lisp (for your vocal needs)
All of these are actually non-present in Podium, so I think they complement it greatly. So go grab them. Dustin’s such a a generous guy, and it seems there will be a lot more to come in the future.
