 Coolness: 47240 | I never use reverb/delay on the plugins
I use sends for those I use group tracks when I get to the mixdown stage I use a lot of compressors because I have so many layers that I need to keep the dynamics in line bu like I said, just one multiband takes alot of juice. It's just small stuff that adds up. EQ on every channel, compressors on a lot of channels, etc. Just doing an acid line is like 6 effects right there (cabinet simulator, distortion, different distortion, multiband compression, EQ). That alone can use a chunk of power. I'm pretty particular about how I want things to sound. The other reason it adds up and that I have so many VSTis is that I dislike tracks that don't do anything different in the second breakdown/chorus. I try to use different sounds and I have a lot of layers, so it's easy to get to 20 VSTis. Think about it: -lead (2-4 layers) -counter-lead (1-2 layers) -arp or something to fill in certain frequencies (1 layer) -acid that comes in or whatever (1 layer) -bass (2-3 layers) When you add in all the variations I'd have (dirty rolling bass in the breakdown, etc.) it can add up to a lot. Having inserts on all those channels (EQ and then often compression on things that need it) Plus all the filters I use... (usually Fabfilter Volcano 2...which is really flexible and sounds amazing but I might have 5 going at once on a breakdown) I'd rather have the liberty to work the way I like than to stop doing things in order to avoid freezing. Freezing is one of Cubase's biggest assets so I might as well use it. I'll concede that synthesis isn't my strongpoint though, so it's not like I'm using a single VST for my lead. I usually have Sylenth1 doing the lower end of my leads and Nexus doing the top (2-4 layers total). Nexus gives me the width I want while Sylenth1 gives me the solid/thick foundation. I'm sure you guys know what you're doing, and I'm sure you're right that I could cut back on some of the things I do but the way I see it is that it's 2009 and we have dual-core CPUs in our laptops - might as well abuse them ;) But tbh, I haven't counted how many inserts I have. Maybe I'll do that tonight. I definitely have 25 VSTis though. |
