Mentioned by Swardy in two July 20, 2012 Reddit AMA replies. The second can be found here.

1:59:25 AM EST

Swardy: Razor? Silenth? we use SO MANY native logic inserts... seems like the most important 3rd party plugs we have are just synths. That said... probably couldn't live without ohmicide or camelphat.

10:22:00 PM EST

Swardy: Work individual on tracks generally at least 50% of the way. Soon as we decide something is worth finishing we start in with group sessions.

standard plugs for us: Silenth, Ohmicide, Camelphat, most Logic native plugs.
