@JunL
You’re welcome, glad I could help 🙂
Hi all,
Lately I’ve been using: (all Waves)
SSL Bus Compressor
CLA-2A
Q1 or Q2 (just for a LF roll off)
L3 Multimaximizer
L3 Ultramaximizer (if I need to squeeze a bit more out!)
Oh, and an IK Multimedia TR3 Meter
Pretty happy with the sound overall, but I’m always tweaking and trying new plugins.
I think there’s some really good info on here that’s helpful to all. I started out with a similar level of knowledge to Del and obviously learnt more about libraries over time. I think it’s easy to underestimate how big the music library industry is, from small RF libraries to the big hitters (Universal, KPM, etc.).
Most of my tracks are with RF sites and I do extremely well from them. I think we’d all like to have music with the ‘big hitters’ but it’s increasingly difficult to do so. I use the stability that I get from RF sites as a platform to try new things, approach new libraries and try to get my music in what I hope is the best place. The good thing is, it’s possible to make money from various avenues and if you can get one, or more of them to work for you, great!
For me, some libraries are slow at this time of year. I think it always helps to get some new tracks in the libraries when they are a bit slower than normal, just to try and increase your visibility on those sites.
A favourite of mine is ‘Piano In Blue’ by Cinesamples. It’s not that versatile but in my opinions has a lovely tone and is actually nice to play as well. It uses lots of voices so can be heavy on the system though…
