Is this worth it?

Iâve been really digging Sinevibes collection. Itâs a lot of strange, simple and/or complex effects and several have built in sequencers with their version of parameter locks. Good stuff!
Also, Waves if you are into reproductions of vintage gear as well as sophisticated, modern concepts. I love the vintage EQs and comps.

Vahalla too, stellar quality at very fair pricing. Vintage verb is one of my go tos (especially 80âs style).
Yes, Softube are top drawer plugins.

Valhalla for reverbs
Soundtoys everything
Softtube is excellent
And I know itâs not popular to write this, but the UAD plugins are still at least top-notch if not a notch above the rest.
SugarBytes stuff is fun and innovative re interfaces/usage, but they donât sound exceptional to me

Can anyone recommend some basic effect plugins (reverb, delay, chorus/flanger) that donât have thousands of parameters? I find myself getting more creative if a plugin is more focused on what it is doing.

have a look at the guitar rig player (apparently itâs also free)
Depends what you want but Soundtoys 5 bundle (decapitator is literally on everything here, but all the rest are really great too), Valhalla Vintage Verb and some others, Fab Filter C2 compressor, Audio Damage Discord, Eventide Octavox and UltraTap are fantastic. If youâre interested in saturation / distortion weirdness then Softube OTO Biscuit is brilliant but expensive.

NI Supercharger GT compressor gets a lot of use.
D16 Decimort is kinda vital for me at least, if you like Lofi, it is the one.
Valhalla Vintage is as everyone else has already said pretty darn good.
Izotope Neutron I use a lot too.

The ones that come with Ableton are good enough for me. I would always go the hardware route if I wanted something special.
I like TAL plugins - many are free. They have a very simple chorus based on the Juno. I also love the TAL Reverb III. Both very simple.
Valhalla Vintage Verb is fairly straightforward as well.
Also check out Surreal Machines for reverb/delay. Great interfaces. Great sound.
Soundtoys all the way! Especially Echoboy / Echoboy jr

Since weâre talking about plugins, does anyone know of a plugin that can âflattenâ the pitch of a sample? Something like this
Iâve tried to make it happen with melodyne, vocoders, vocalsynth. I canât find something to flatten the pitch without sounding processed.
Empirical Labs are launching a new plug in a couple of days, though they wonât tell anyone what it is.
Empirical Labs of Distressor Fame are releasing their new EQ today.
I might possibly have won a free copy. Probably not, but maybeâŚ
