Default I want to buy a VST bundle - Any suggestions?

I am interested in purchasing a VST bundle and would be grateful for your suggestions. I would like a bundle that is easy to use.

I would like to have several that are specifically for vocals.

Thanks for you time to reply.....

I find Toneboosters excellent value for money. They do a few bundles. The VSTs are good quality and the price is excellent. But I have to say the plugins that come with Reaper are also excellent quality and even better value for money.

Melda also do an kind of entry level bundle. I have had no issues with any of the above.

While I'm not the biggest Waves fan, this offer is quite tempting though: Scheps Omni Channel for 29$, 17 hours left.

Apart from that, I really really like the HorNet channel strip and some other plugins of his.

tweakbench! $10 for 22 plugins, several of which end up in most of my projects

also check out the dead duck freeware and donate if spending money is part of the goal here

Soundtoys 5 Bundle.

Best money I ever spent, use everything in there on almost everything.

More "creative" plugin types though, but you cannot go wrong with Decapitator, AlterBoy, EchoBoy, LittlePlate... and FilterFreak (<3).

They often have sales with as much as 50% off, I would suggest waiting for one of those though.

You don't have problems with incorrect PDC reporting? I haven't checked in a while, but workarounds were needed for parallel processing. They do sound great though!

sjs94704: the best thing you can do is to demo these products. Everyone will have a different opinion on which products are best. There are a great deal of effects in REAPER already, especially including the JS fx. First you need to identify what might be improved by 3rd party plugins, and the only way to do that is to demo products and compare them to what you are already using.

Unfortunately there are no easy answers in this game!

Horses for courses,
and you didn't specify any budget.

What are you missing?

No plugin is better than the engineer using it
