Interesting Echos and delays

If reverb isn't your thing then maybe you would like to switch gears and check out some of the interesting echoes and delays to use in your production. Whether you want analog tape modulation or crazy echo mania be sure to check out some of the plugins from The Interruptor.


ADT the Easy Way

I wouldn't say A.D.T. Is a hard technique to master(check out the tutorial on Automatic Double Tracking here) but it's nice to have a plugin that takes care of the hassle for you.

Amp Simulation and more

I know amp simulator like Guitar Rig and Amplitube are expensive. And sometimes you don't need all the bells and whistles that come with those types of plugins. So if you need a better alternative, there are some free vst plugins that offer nice cabinet simulation and effects for guitarists. It might not come with the kitchen sink like Guitar Rig, but it sure is cheaper.

Variety of free VST Plugins

Lastly, Variety of Sound has(wait for it...) a variety of plugins too! Variety of Sound offers some pretty bad-ass looking free vst plugins ranging from EQ and saturation emulator to digital reverb units.
