Softube/UAD Chandler Curve Bender
All these sales and so little money
Now here is a small review
I have an older song early 1917 which I was not happy with having tried to get better masters with it.
Somehow things I did just did not produce any magic in it.
I went to Sonible and got their Smart eq as I had what I thought was a great acoustic guitar sound and this plugin got this sounding even better.
I used the Sonible Smart eq on my vocals, Bass, Acoustic guitar, Electric lead and even the drums.
My tune was looking pretty good and sounding much better.
There was something though and that was sweetness and a little bit of control.
I happened on the UAD site and saw they had a sale on so I did some in-depth review reading and happened to see the Chandler Curve Bender eq in there.
When I saw many times that the high end was to die for I sat up very quickly
dug deep and purchased 3 plugs which got me four. I have a huge number of
UAD plugs already, most purchased many years ago.
To the matter at hand I chucked off a popular mastering plugin from my mastering chain and placed the Chandler Curve Bender on there. Ten minutes later I was ready to render. Playing back on the lounge stereo later I had a huge smile on my face.
I am not the worlds best masterer however that plugin brought my song to a
point where I could have the right to relax and enjoy the song totally, yes it could be on a CD.
The Curve Bender helped not only with sweetness but Glue and somehow the clarity of the mix and the separation part!
I will put this song on my Soundcloud page inside a couple of days to replace the version there if that is useful to anyone.
Huge thanks to UAD and Softube/Chandler unbelievable the separation and tone.
I totally recommend Sonible in a big way their vst's help in a big way if you do not have "golden ears" and that means most of us I would say.
Sonibe vst's are game changers.
Reaper was used for this song all the way through.
