something about that word free!Anyway, thought I'd post up this link to some really good FREE plugins. "Endorphin" is an especially nice mastering compressor/limiter. I find that I use it more often than some others that I paid a bunch of mulah for.Here ya go, now you have more money for beer.http://www.digitalfishphones.com/main.php

thanks for sharing, Bill!im interested in testing out the "dominion" and "fish fellets" plug ins~

Mmmmm....beer. You are SO good to us! I'm actually in the market for mastering gear...(now that I know almost 3% about the black magic art). Great timing, thank you!

masterings greatest secret..........its half art

masterings greatest secret . . . . . . . it's half art/half beer.

i thought that was kareoke's greatest secret

Endorphin is well worth downloading. I use it regularly and it compares favorably with some of the professional audio ware I have. Another good source of free plug-ins is the very well-regarded Classic line from Kjaerhaus Audio. Their EQ, mastering limiter, chorus, compressor and reverb have all found a home in my VST folder.Downloads from:http://www.kjaerhusaudio.com/classic-series.phpI've got a commission to write and record music for a production of Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar" later this month and have used the reverb and compressor quite a bit in producing the song demos. The mastering limiter was also very helpful and easy to use in squeezing a little more volume from final mixes, too.Best regards to all,Ed

Oh yeah, I use the kjaerhusaudio classic compressor on bass & acoustic guitars all the time. their reverb sounds good when you get it set up properly but I've found that it takes a lot of tweaking, that said, a lot of "tweaking" options are usually pretty rare unless you're paying some bucks.
