after your sub ends the companies should still allow the plugins to process audio but not allow acess to the controls. a much more ethical way then comletely deactivating them.
You'll love SSL once you upgrade your slate to the 21$ plan. All the ssl plugins come bundled in and it's cheaper at the end of the year. You really won't need UAD or a waves then.
East West are the best for instruments. Do they do effects? Plugin Alliance have a few good synths but the effects are king. Ds Thorn and UA Lion though ❤
Waves decided to keep the old marketing model, but for new users the new subscription model is not bad at all. As for me, I like some of the Waves plugins a lot. But, what I always hated is to pay for the update of the plugins I've already bought.
Yea, I get that. (If I can put my own two cents in here). The thing you don't hear that much about when allot of people start describing the Waves subscription model thing though, is StudioVerse. I think its freakin' brilliant. And something that seems to set it apart from the other plugin effect type subscription models. From what I can see so far, anyway...
@@AreDoubleYou and let’s be really honest their plug ins are just okay too I never found them to be essential like for example a multitude of plugins from plug in alliance. Universal audio does not even charge wild prices you would think from where UA started they would be charging 35 dollars for a subscription …. I truly think mcdsp is struggling hence the wild prices. I tried their new APB stuff at a friends studio and although It sounded good my friend and I thought the price for what you get vs actual compressors and real analog eqs not just digital Eq’s summed to it an along board is WAY OVER priced and he sold it 2 months after he bought it. Hence why no wide adoption.
I dont know how i just saw this haha but i agree with you! Although you would think if mcdsp was struggling financially they would lower their prices to get more people to use it
Good video, but you forgot about Musio and UVI SonicPass, you should check em out
Ive never used any plugins from uvi before so i didn’t wana speak on it! Ive actually never heard of musio before whats that?
@@AreDoubleYou This is new kid on a block of subscriptions, but basically it is CineSamples' alternative to EW Composer Cloud.
UVI one goes crazy
@@Diego-of3ft yeah I got the UVI sub for like 2 years, the shit is luxury

Agreed! They should all be that way for sure
Slate and SSL coming together puts it in S tier
Agreed!

Yeah this was before they merged the subscriptions! They added the ssl stuff to my slate sub at no extra cost!
@@AreDoubleYou definitely S tier now then🤣

I dont think they have effects but i havent checked their offering in a while so they may have added some
Needed this list. Earned a sub.
Glad i could help! Thank you for subscribing!

agreed! waves has been a subscription all a long and people just didnt realize it lol

hard to beat Fabfilter and Neutron stuff tho. (im a Metal musician) and after lots of testing Neutron 4 and ProQ3 are great for this genre.
Fabfilter is amazing! Didnt get a mention in this because they dont have a subscription tho
Yeah I think slate is dope, you get Phase Plant, Ana2 and SSL Complete.
Yeah its good! This video was made before ssl was a part of it too
I agree
with everything?
@AreDoubleYou well, waves gets a lower score
@@JakeyWakey haha everyone got something against waves
If UAD Sub allowed me to use the preamps on my apollo I would subscribe but for now i stick with Slate/SSL.
That would be next level!
It’s funny that NI and izotope are both D tier because NI just bought them AND plugin-alliance which is S tier lol. I think that’s hilarious!
haha i said the same thing!
Native Instruments didn't buy them, Francisco Partners bought all 3. They placed the others branding under N.I.
Mcdsp is super overpriced
yeah they lost me when V7 came out and the upgrade prices were so high to update from V6

Thank you! Youre right it was their parent company
