No way I will be locked into one platform and DAW again. I got off the Logic train and have been quite happy without it. And BTW I would never, ever go back to Logic. When I need color like that though, I reach for other dedicated emulations, but McDSP has earned a good reputation for theirs, so it’s a viable option for sure. But if I had to live with just one of them from this group, it would be FF, which has awesome workmanlike flexibility day-in and day-out, although McDSP gives you all those colorful modules if that’s what you need/want. In sort of an answer to your question – In terms of the plugins mentioned, I use FF Pro-C 2 every day, it’s almost indispensable, and Scheps Omni Channel has earned some love in many projects. But I’m mainly just curious in this thread why you want to get something “closest” to logic’s compressor? I mean, it’s clearly got a lot of what you want, so A) why not stick with Logic? OR, B) if you are trying to transition away from Logic (which is also very understandable), then why not consider opening up to different workflows and adopting a new plugin approach? It’s a new year after all. I just never jumped on the McDSP train since I’ve got others that I love and use daily. I can’t vouch for McDSP personally, but I know a lot of folks that love them. Which is closest to logic’s compressor? Or all in one 1176, VCa, la2a, 160, emulations in one ? Out of McDsp 6030, waves scheps Omni, and FabFilter C2, There are occasional exceptions when I am in a rush or get a little lazy (or for some rare technical reason), but in general I no longer touch Steinberg’s (or other DAW’s) bundled plugins so I know I can count on my third-party plugins in other DAWs if needed. And every plugin I use must be compatible with all the DAWs. Any DAW I use now (often depends on project) must be cross-platform, and I make sure to keep at least two DAWs installed (actually right now I have four installed co-existing nicely due to various projects going on). Steinberg has some nice features in other plugins, etc… but ultimately, I’ve migrated almost completely away from using built-in/bundled plugins… I’ve basically adapted due to very frustrating experiences over the years to become DAW- and platform-independent. It’s very helpful that Logic’s compressor has the feature you mentioned. And BTW, quick other general comment on the OP – every DAW has some special plugin or feature buried in there somewhere.
