First question....does anybody know of some decent hopefully free VST
plugins to use? I'm mainly looking for some compression and reverb, but if
you have some good suggestions I will take them.

The next thing is...Our drummer just bought a new roland electric drum set.
I was wondering if anybody has opinions on the benefits/negatives of using
it for recording our drum tracks instead of his Tama rockstar. Any help is
appreciated!! Thanks!!

These is just about the best free plugin set around, IMO... I don't like
their reverb much, but the compressor is very useable:

(BTW, for those of you who already have these, they updated a number of them
3 or 4 months ago, so if you like 'em, go get the new versions).

For reverbs, "Freeverb" is a pretty popular one (Google it & you'll find out
where to get it - I can't recall offhand), but I prefer the "Room Machine
844" from Silverspike:

("Ruby Tube" on that same page is also not too bad if you like that sort of
thing)

Hiya,

I totally ADORE the BLOCKFISH compressor in COMPLEX mode.

Its free, for Windows or Mac, and it can be found, along with some other
cool stuff at :

www.digitalfishphones.com


I love using this plugin!!


Good luck

Hundreds.

All free.

What about free plugs for ProTools 6? Why is it that it's okay to ask
for free plugz for VST and not for ProTools? I mean, whenever people
meekly query RAPpers as to where they might find free plugz for PT,
everybody gets their knickers in a twist?

And, yes, I already have the free BF plugz (the stuff of which yawns
are made, mostly) currently being offered by Digi.
