An essential
Out of all the guitar VST amps I've used over the years, this still reigns supreme and remains to become an essential when recording electric guitars. :)

Useful
While I would rather prefer the Ableton Live EQ, I think this EQ does a splendid job with cutting/adding certain frequencies in the mix.

Wonderful
This plugin to me is almost an essential when mixing especially with vocals as I love using the EQ and the compressor specifically with this plugin. It's fairly simple to navigate your way through and has some great presets that can guide you to making adjustments to the track your specifically mixing.

Once You Get Around It, It's Very Useful
Ozone 8 Elements at first was very complicated to get around with mostly due to me not knowing much about mastering back when I first got it, but since I started to look up tutorials (some from Ozone and others on Youtube), I started to get a grip on how to use it, which could be useful.

BEST PLUGIN YOU'LL EVER GET REGARDING PIANOS AND STRINGS
After getting this one, every other plugin you'll get will just disappoint you. The only instrument set to tie this all in together it some horns (please)....

Decent and does the job...
Not the perfect headphones, but does a decent job at mixing stuff. Honestly, I would still recommend listening to you mix on other headphones as well just to get a good idea of what your mix sounds like on other devices.

It's ok
Pretty ok at best for mixing and mastering tracks on a cheap budget until the sound quality gets worse the more you use it. Hope that someday I could get better monitors.

better than 12
If i had the option to get Fl Studio 11 than 12, I would do it in a heartbeat.
FL Studio 20 Update: FL Studio 20 fixes the issues that I disliked about FL Studio 12 as well as added the feature of consolidating tracks, which has been very helpful for me considering that I use the demo version.
Version: Image Line FL Studio 11

I won't switch to 12. I had both installed when 12 came out and I uninstalled it after a while. We'll see what 13 looks like.

yeah hopefully it's better

yeah 20 is so much better

Great, but not worth your money
I got this along with my Launchkey mini, and it only has 16 tracks which absolutely stinks, and they don't have many of the cool plugins that the other versions of Ableton Live have. If you are a starter in music production it could help you, but for anyone who has experience in music production, just save up to get a better version cause it sucks. Other than that they have one of the most solid drum sample packs compared to any other daw.

you know, you could just buy a DX7 or SY77 and an ESQ1 or SQ8L for PEANUTS, there were so many made that there's a Yamaha FM synth and an Ensoniq hybrid for everyone. I think you would spend less than the cost of a new Novation Peak hybrid. Although the Peak is seriously amazing. but the hardware these VSTs are based on is seriously fun. Different programming, but a different timbre too.

I'd love to but I'm super broke.

Decent
Not as great (tone wise) compared to the Fender amp I got and broke (rip), but when I play with the reverb and chorus that goes with this amp, it really sounds good. Also, I love that this amp does have distortion, reverb, and chorus with it so I don't have to buy myself a ton of guitar pedals.

Reliable
I can have these strings hang around with my guitar for a year, and they still don't break quickly. So yeah if you do play acoustic guitar, get these strings. :)

I've had a set of these on my epiphone acoustic since???? its probably been 9 or 10 years. I don't play it a lot and they're finally sounding dead, but they won't break and they still intonate

Doesn't last as long compared to Ernie Balls
I tried these strings to replace my Ernie Ball strings, and within a few weeks most of them broke already (really).

Cheap, but effective
My parents bought me this one for Christmas, and ever since I got it, I really fell in love with this guitar. Sure it ain't those expensive guitars, but to me for how cheap it is, it really sounds amazing.

its meant to be an ESQ1/SQ80, I have used an ESQ1 forever. This is pretty decent except at high resonance settigns where the analog Curtis filter of the hardware definitely schools. Try making your own patches, the Ensoniq hybrid synths are powerful machines and the presets, while humorously late-80s? are pretty lame compared to what these things CAN do.... I seriously will sue this free plugin a lot when I feel too lazy to get the ESQ1 out of the closet. If the ESQ1 weren't a big-ass keyboard and it were a rack unit or tabletop module I might not resort to the ST, but the hassle to extra performance ration between hardware and software makes the software a no-brainer.... its not like the original is easier to program. Same exact layout and confusing envelope generators

I do agree, the program is difficult to make your own sounds, but I should try to make my own presets and stuff. Also, I didn't know this was based on the ESQ1 so I might want to check that out.
