TDR VOS SLICK EQ - Free EQ plug-in (and other free stuff)

Post by Dan Worley »

I posted this in the Free VIs/Plugins sticky, but I thought I'd post it here too because I think it's one of the better free offering out there and I don't want people to miss it.

Different and wonderful, with unique features. Extremely well done. Much more than you'd expect from a free EQ.

Note: Running the install app on 10.9.2, I got a file path error, but the files did install correctly.

They also have a nice (free) feedback compressor. Clean clean clean. I'm very impressed with their stuff.

I don't know how to install the compressor - the AU files come over as ".component" files and are not self extracting, and the manual does not cover installation.

Any advice on how to install this plug? It looks very interesting!

Drag the .component files to the folder HD>Library>Audio>Plugins>Components. Same with VST except the VST, not the component folder. In either case, you will have to authenticate with your password for the machine.

Thanks Dan. These look very nice and if the documentation is accurate, they are easy to use and get great results from right away (or as you might say in Canada - straight away). Right. Eh? :)

Thanks a bunch, bud!

One of the guys that worked on these also offers (for free) Limiter No6. Be prepared to spend some time with it. It's a serious piece of work. The presets I've tried so far are very good starting points.

Again, I'm blown away this quality is available for free (I will be donating). They are so nicely done and sound great!
