Izotope Trash

Post by teleblaster » Sat Jan 08, 2011 12:54 pm

I bought a copy of this on sale years ago for $99. I think it tends to get brushed aside because the GUI is pretty ugly, and it can be a bear to dial in the sweet spots. It's really a useful and amazing plug in many ways. I never use it as a standalone git amp/effect simulator though. I tend to use the individual effects from it for various puroposes.

- The cab sims are really great. But I rarely use them on a dry signal. I usually apply them to push an existing git track in a different direction, and usually have the mix control below 50%. The spread and seperation controls are genius, but again a dab will do ya. I tracked a little blues rythm track using my live rig and a h/w cab sim, then used a 4x10 sim from trash to give the track some honk and balls -- worked out perfect!
- The multiband compressor kicks butt. Seriously, it's probably the same algorythm as in Ozone, just not a pretty GUI
- The delay has analog and tube settings that are as good as anything I've heard. The only thing I like as well in VST land for guitar is the tape echo from Amplitube Fender. You really need to play with the EQ graph to find the sweet spots.
-Some uber cool filter sweeps and mods are built into the pre and post EQ sections. Some of the best vibratos I've gotten are from tweaking with it.

I never heard of trash but I use their Ozone, Nectar, and Audio RX suites. I love their interface and best of all, their plug-ins really do enhance the sound used judiciously of course.
I'll settle for 5 minutes instead of 15.
