The 5 VST Plugins I Wish I Bought First

[@song23ministries]

As always...FANTASTIC work Onesto.

[@ThisIsOnesto]

Thanks again for watching and the glowing feedback!

Love the video!

[@Scr1pted]

Onesto, please, I beg you, I'm already crazy, I spend ten hours a day and still without results, I ask you, I beg you, do a lesson, at least five minutes, on the topic of how to make power chords like in the track Lust - Snavs

[@mar7838]

Great list and mostly pretty affordable plugins too. I always recommend beginners to get a good reverb and a good synth first because I feel most stock plugins are a bit lacking in these categories. Personal choices would be Valhalla Vintage Verb and Serum. I really have to try Pigments soon though. Recently got Shaperbox and I have used it on every song since then.

[@ThisIsOnesto]

Thanks so much for watching and giving the feedback! Valhalla Vintage Verb is such a strong contender. Right now I’m recommending Raum over it because Raum makes reverb so easy to use and understand, especially for beginners. Glad you’re loving Shaperbox. I use it everywhere too.

Would you choose pigments 5 or serum

[@Mikkelethor]

It’s a nice list, buddy! I would have Serum, Soundtoys’ Effect Rack, Cenozoix Compressor, Pro Q3 and Serato Sample on my list.

[@ThisIsOnesto]

Thanks for the appreciation! I think you have a solid list too. Serum used to be in that top list for me, especially with the amount of resources and preset packs available. Pigment just keeps getting better and better. Thanks for watching!

[@nics8040]

@@ThisIsOnestowhat would you choose between serum and pigments 5? I’m new and price isn’t the issue. Thanks

[@ThisIsOnesto]

@nics8040 that’s a good question, even if budget isn’t an issue. I think Pigments 5 is the better plugin. Not by a ton, but I think it offers more features and is sort of all you need. However, since Serum is older and more popular, there are a lot more tutorials and preset packs compared to Pigments. So if you’re in need of a ton of tutorials and preset packs, choose Serum, but if not, than I think Pigments has the edge.

Shaperbox the undisputed goat

[@ThisIsOnesto]

Haha, yeah! I probably talk about Shaperbox too much on this channel. It’s not just for “tricks”, it’s actually useful in so many scenarios. And I still think it’s a solid choice for beginners. Thanks again, for watching!
