Perezvon Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Kickass plugin from what I've experienced with the demo, but I really can't be arsed to spend 150 quids for the whole version. I'm aware there can't be a freeware plugin that's as good as this, but are there at least any other cheap ones for me to grab so I can lushen up my compression/limiting ? My CM version of TB Barricade feels too muched... limited now. Reveal hidden contents couldn't even find a crack for VW that works Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide Perezvon's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/87263-any-good-equivalent-of-psp-vintagewarmer/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 13, 2015 Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Vintage Warmer is a great plug-in. You might have some luck with Massey. He makes excellent plug-ins for pretty cheap. And the demo versions aren't too crippled from what I remember. His limiter is in every mix I make.

Perezvon Posted April 13, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 13, 2015 Thanks!

Berk Posted April 14, 2015 Report Share Posted April 14, 2015 Or find a €10,- cassette deck in the thrift store and record your master output to cassette. Sounds much better than any plug imo.

LimpyLoo Posted April 15, 2015 Report Share Posted April 15, 2015 You might be better off using more than one VST to approximate VW. Keep in mind that a big part of what it does is brickwall limiting. While tape emulations can approximate the tone/timbre of VW, they rarely do as much squishing. I would say find yourself a VCR to dub stuff down to and push the input a bit, as VCRs seem to do some pretty serious limiting when pushed.

Zephyr_Nova Posted April 18, 2015 Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) PSP Vintagewarmer is one of my favorite all time plug-ins. I've never used another compressor like it. Hardly ever use it when i'm making electronic music though, most often use it on vocals and acoustic instruments. The compressor I use most is BlueCompressor (part of the BlueLine series). I believe it's included here under the "historic blueline vst2" download, and it's free: http://www.digilogue.de/ I use their chorus quite a bit too. *I wouldn't run entire mixes through it though, only to enhance individual sounds within the mix. Sorry, I realize now that might not be what you're looking for. Still... great compressor.

Perezvon Posted April 18, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 18, 2015 Well running track through this one could turn great too, maybe even better! To just colour the sound I now have the SGA1566 (had forgotten I had it, pretty good) and the Sonimus Satson that I use in pairs : one to dial the volume down and another to dial it back up. Kinda silly but it does add a little something! In the end I'm actually just looking for a compressor with character, so thanks for the suggestion.

peace 7 Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 (edited) I used to use VintageWarmer more than 10 years ago, and indeed, it's quite sweet. Some similar free plugins that I use are Blockfish, Density mkIII, and Thrillseeker. I recall a compressor from back in the day by Camel Audio that was good as well, but it seems to have vanished.
