Yes that's one of those plugins you wonder how can it be free, another plugin is Oril River (reverb) it is free and it is awesome.

He really doesn't need to have the plugin, just print the stem with the tone you like and send him the wav file just make sure you don't over do the tone to leave him enough rope for mixing.

I have two more suggestions Slap Passion (Not only for slap bass): This one needs a cab sim but sounds great too http://www.vst4free.com/free_vst.php?plugin=Slap_Passion&id=2175 VeeBass: This one is another favourite, only drawback it is only 32bits but has it's only bass cab sim (can be turned off) http://www.vst4free.com/free_vst.php?plugin=Vee_Bass_Amp&id=2255 Last but not least you could try this one GK AMPLIFICATION 2 LE https://shop.audified.com/products/live-guitar-and-bass-bundle-le

Go to Lancaster Audio, they do have a Cab sim loader and a couple of free cab sims and if you are interested they have some at a very good price. Here's the link to their free plugin: https://lancasteraudio.com/pulse/ Here's the link to their paid cab sims: https://lancasteraudio.com/product-category/impulse-responses/bass-cabs/ There are other free cab sims in the web but they are not of the quality of these but you can get great results nonetheless.

If you play guitar too you'll love tonelib GFX, and better download it quickly as it is going as paid very soon.

Paid and doesn't break the bank: - Kuassa Cerberus: Sounds great with lots of options, normally goes for $49 but they have offers all the time, specially for Black Friday. https://www.kuassa.com/products/cerberus-bass-amplifikation/ Free ones: - Ignite Amps SHB-1: another great sounding plugin and free, you'll need to use a cab simulator https://www.kvraudio.com/product/shb-1-by-ignite-amps - TSE BOD: this is a simulation of the SansAmp and free https://www.tseaudio.com/software/tseBOD - Tonelib GFX has an Ampeg simulation that sound quite good: https://tonelib.net/gfx-overview/

Nembrini Audio has a flash sale %80 off on all products, this will en 13th of October.

Just click on blue button "Get free plugin" and follow the instructions: - add email address They will send you a link to download. There's even an offer for a copy of MixBus v5 for £39 which is a steal. Lots of people use it for mastering to take advantage of the analogue console sound.

Another heads up!!! FREE Mastering EQ from Harrison Mixbus (Worth $89) https://harrisonconsoles.com/site/fr...Q1P5hb1C6abAw0

Yes it is a stand alone vst, you just download it and install it and it will appear in Reaper. That's a £125 plugin for free.

Another great deal PRS Guitar Bundle for €26 https://vstbuzz.com/deals/77-off-prs-supermodels-by-waves?utm_source=VSTBuzz+Deals&utm_campaign=c471591e03-EMAIL_Supermodels_Broadway_2019_07_17_New&utm_medium=email&utm_term=0_8656c2da47-c471591e03-100758285&mc_cid=c471591e03&mc_eid=ef3ae70229 Those guitar models sound great and at that price!!!

I think they want to keep that version free to lure Peuple into buying the latest versions. Still has everything you needed to record

Ok I think I can give you my 2 pence. I started 2 years ago (after dealing with the boredom of recovering from a heart issue) and I can say you have everything you need hardware wise. As for DAW my recommendation would be Tracktion T7 and here's the reason, even though I normally use Reaper and to me it's the best DAW specially for the price, it can be a bit daunting because it has a lot of options (maybe too many for a beginner). Tracktion works pretty much like a tape machine as it has a flat screen and it's simple to get yourself started. It's totally free and fully featured and you can use all the VST plugins you want. Here's a video series of how to setup and record and you'll see how easy it is. There's another person in the forum who took my advice and he's already recording with good results in no time. In all honesty Tracktion is not as fully featured as Reaper (and in your case it is a good thing) and I find myself using it more when I want to lay down my ideas and then using Reaper for mixing my projects (and other people's projects). Another choice would be Cakewalk by Bandlab, it is Windows 64 bits only, totally free, fully featured and comes with lots of free good plugins (guitar amps, piano, drum kit, etc...). It would take you a bit longer to get your head around it but not as much as Reaper. Here another video series on how to setup and record. Drop me a direct msg and I can help you in any way I can.

Yeah that one is an amazing deal. Waves has a %50 off deal too, the Schepps Omnichannel is £29 right now and the Greg Wells Voicecentric is £29 too!! Both top plugins.

Izotope Essentials Bundle for just £45 https://www.timespace.com/products/izotope-music-essentials-bundle?utm_campaign=Friday 21st June 2019 - General Newsletter - 30 Day Engaged (LbDHbi)&utm_medium=email&utm_source=30 Day Engaged Segment&_ke=eyJrbF9lbWFpbCI6ICJtY2dpdmVyNjlAZ21haWwuY29tIiwgImtsX2NvbXBhbnlfaWQiOiAiTHRUSGRUIn0%3D

Another bargain spotted, for limited time Brainworx_bx_Townhose Buss Compressor for only $29 (Yes in Dollars). It normally costs $200 and sounds amazing! https://www.plugin-alliance.com/en/products/bx_townhouse_buss_compressor.html There's a video of Stuart Huart reviewing the plugin in his Youtube Channel, if you want to listen to it or you can download it and try it before you buy.

Be my guest Si, that's a great idea. Even make it a sticky if you consider.

Was about to post that Strike 2 is going for £22 at Plugin Boutique. Another great alternative to EzDrummer.

Now Westwood Drums are $9, so you can get both for $18 (USD). Nice deal for unprocessed drums that even though they say are for Metal, they really can be used on anything else. https://www.audio-assault.com/westwood.php

Yes your read that one well, a Drum VSTi (mostly for Metal but it works for Rock and Pop) for $9 (USD). https://audio-assault.com/druminator.php Don't know for how long this will still be available but in the meantime get yourself some drums bargain. As usual I don't have any relation with the company. Enjoy!!
