Totally agree,plus unforgettable ATTITUDE of developers,go and give another 500-600 eu/us for stuff you already have for free.this is what i’m saying , but people still pay companies like uhe and serum loads of cash , there just not worth it when the freeware is so exceptional now ,( the only thing i would say is there’s more quality presets for good name synths which makes people think there better than free daws )plugin don't worth any money anymore.
one can run an entire production with free/open source plugins...
recently i see everyone slagging off behringers vintage but are some free synths that shit ? i mean if luftrum the unfinished stockhausen etc made the presets for them we could be having a different conversation now , some things are just brandism , like Youngsters won’t wear reebok but they love nike , my reebok last just as good feel just as good , but there not cool
someone could easily make pop hits with freeware or score a movie , we are even getting quality free Daws now like Luna .
apparently the new free plug in “spot on” is better than Autotune , name me something that’s paid you can’t get for free somehow with a few little tweaks , they should bring the software prices down and put more stuff.
and the only thing about this Zl eq it doesn’t have great looks like pro q just yet ( doesn’t look bad and people will still say it’s not the same , but like a cheap tin of beans once there on toast who gives a f**k if the label was or wasn’t heinz ?
i mean i think companies still need to get paid
but £200 for a virtual thing is a ridiculous price to pay i think , when you can replace most of it with freeware and make the same quality music .
Especially Analog emu's are such trade phantasmagoria and money makers,i can't believe i actually believe in these blsht years ago.
Buy now

I can make more convinsing analog-ish sound with free synths like Synth1 and Vital,than 90% of users,who prefer to pay for VIRTUAL ANALOG,BUT STILL DIGITAL synths like Diva,will ever get closer.
Checking the ZL EQ - top notch sound,flexible curves,rank it among best free ones,probably better than some paid i've got.
