Default AixDSP Plugins, I'm looking for advice on which to choose, drummer

I've been watching multiple videos and have been speaking to a friend who has a simple work flow who started using AixDSP plugins. Although I'm very interested in all three, I don't know which one is best suited for my purchase.

Most of my drum tracks are jazz/blues/fusion, basically not super compressed. They all look amazing and wanted your opinion.

i'm guessing you are talking about the 3 plugins included in the drum producer pack?
Are you saying you only want to purchase one of them? They are all very different tools - a gate, EQ & compressor - if you don't know which one you want / need, i would say don't buy any until you do know.
They are extremely unlikely to give you anything you can't already get from the plugins included in Reaper, except fancier graphics & marketing hype.

Good morning domzy. I'm interested in the multigate. I've recently downsized my plugin options and taking the time to to reinvent my workflow, support pipeline and hopefully learn something new while enjoying the the design of what everyone is raving about.

ok, sorry, your first post sounded like you wanted to choose between 3 different plugins.
I haven't used any of them so can't comment on specifics.

No problem. That was my error for not explaining myself better.

Actually, I had intended that REAPER include a multiband version of ReaGate by v2 or 3 but it never happened, so, no you can't get MBG out of reaper. With the JS scopes and ReaComp you can get pretty close to Intuition with the included reaper stuff. DrumEQ is just a really ergonomic version of what you could probably accomplish with Parameter Modulation.

I think you would be extremely hard pressed to find a more anti-hype company than we are. And that is on purpose as I constantly, to our own detriment, challenge claims, especially quantifiable claims made by the hype lords and the Music Industry Marketing Machine

But you could if you used several gates etc, couldn't you? Though it's obviously cool to have it all in one plug-in.

I've got no experience of your plug-ins, so probably shouldn't have responded initially, but i'd misunderstood the original question.
Apologies.

Not in a really usable way the same as you could with MBG. You could get something similar with Parameter modulation, if you were willing to constantly change all the parameters on all three gates with every change, I think you could use an external source to trigger it, but it would be an ergonomic nightmare.

I've removed all of the plugins I don't use. Moving forward, the Drum Producer Pack for $149 is what I plan on purchasing.

Kind regards,
