Compared to the Reason rack it's pretty basic, I almost never use it
To be honest though, I'd be more excited about the plugins than the rack. All your Soundtoys plugins will show up in the rack as soon as they're installed & registered You might have a bunch of FX already, but imo Soundtoys bring something special to the table - their thing is fat dirty tube sound as opposed to clean clinical digital, and they really nail itĭoes anybody know if I can expand this rack in the future? If I want alter boy for example, can I purchase it separately and add it to this rack? Don't even think twice, it's an insane bargain The only missing plugins that matter are Little Plate (a basic but nice reverb) and Little Alter Boy (a cool vocal pitch/formant mangler). EchoBoy Jr, Little Primal Tap, Little Radiator etc) and you don't really need them The missing plugins are mostly just stripped back versions of the fuller-featured ones you get in the rack (e.g. You're not getting the entire Soundtoys suite, but almost. Crystallizer is a weird pitch-shifty granular device that has some very nice tricks up its sleeve. Radiator and Decapitator are justly famous saturation/distortion units. Sie-Q is a deceptively simple passive EQ that goes really well on the low end. There is a compressor included - Devil Loc, which isn't your everyday workhorse comp but a massive over-the-top crush kill destroy beast and it fucking rulesĮchoBoy and Primal Tap are excellent delays - EchoBoy is my go-to analogue style delay unit, and Primal Tap has some cool features, it's quite eccentric and there's nothing else like it out there But the plugins are fantastic and well worth the price The rack itself is nothing special, a few interesting presets I guess. Do you already have some Soundtoys plugins? If not, then this is a no brainer. The last sentence “.if you lack effects units. But non the less this isa great deal if you lack FX units. There is no compressor or reverb inside the SoundToys Rack, very limited on the EQ. The SoundToys Rack only stacks them on top of each other, with a wet/dry for the whole stack, but no multiband, parallel, or mid/side like Waves. But then you can do soo much with the fantastic Waves StudioRack. Many like the distortion from Decapitator, but it is nothing that special imo, just the right knobs to dial it in quickly. I use Microshift the most, and I cannot wrap my head around drawing my own modulation curves, it is wonky a.f. Interestingly it is strangely absent of a dedicated flanger. It all depends on what you already have, will the EchoBoy make your songs better, probably not, but it is a nice delay unit.
Wow, that is less than $10 a piece, never seen it this cheap.
