Default Enhancers/Exiters
Anyone using an enhancer/exiter type device/plugin for processing sound audio from their virus?

I have been vaguely thinking of getting such a device for ages - I allready have a crappy old Behringer 1424P (It was very cheap...) that I sometimes use to good effect, but am thinking of finding something alot better: Aphex 204 as a relatively cheap option, or SPL Vitalizer Mk2-T (which is a bit pricey, but very good).

Still on the fence about whether I want to use a plugin for this kind of processing, but I would be still be interested to hear of any that are worth a look.


Main use with the TI is the add a little high frequency energy to some sounds - comes back to ongoing wish that the virus has an exiter and a compressor in its FX

No doubt Ill end up using it alot for post prodction as well. I like the flavour of the the 1424 can do, but it introduces too many artifacts for it to really be useful in post production.

Noveltech Character for Powercore sounds great and I use it in every project. I have heard many people saying it sounds even better than aphex aural exciter. I have never heard the aphex but the character really sounds good.

REmember kids: These plugins/FX's only fix problems you make on mastering stage (EQ-compression). It's also devious if you use it on many tracks because then it causes heavy frequency overlap and the mix ends up sounding a heap of audio mess.
