Neodynium

Post by Siryne »

I just bought The Neodynium and Equium package from Elemental audio and am quite impressed. I have not had time to really get in to this stuff yet and it looks like it will take some study to actually be able to intelligently use it. But just useing presets (Neodynium) is very clean even under extream compression and very CPU friendly.

I have 2 UAD1's fully loaded - URS Vintage Consoles - Waves Native Bundle - Wave Arts Track Plug and Masterverb - Metric Halo Channel Strip - PSP-Everything - Altiverb 5 - AutoTune - TRacks(not overly impressed with this) TC Native Pack (the old now discontinued package) and now the Elemental Audio Neodynium and Equium. I think i'm set for battle.

Anyone else have these Elemental Audio plugs and have any comments to share?

Peace!

Im a big fan of the equim plugin. I find it extremely easy to use and it is incredibly light on system resources. It has become the foundation of my mix plugins!

Neodynium is very cool. I'm using it more and more. I like that you can expand the bottom, limit the top, and squeeze the middle somewhere in between. I don't know if it's transparent enough for Vox or featured instruments, but I'm liking it on drums.

Love 'em, have 'em all....Neodynium is a completely different way of using compression. I do occasionally use it on vocals and bass and if you tweak it right it sounds lovely on piano.

Not only does Elemental do great work, they're also top notch in customer service.

If you haven't tried them, check out the demo and hear for yourself.

Also check out the free Inspector. It has a much better meter than the crap ones that MOTU seems to think are good.
