Yes, I totally agree it’s all the points being said here on this thread and
don’t forget just because you have a plug-in and because you know how to use it
doesn’t mean you can master it hundred percent that all takes time and
nurtureing
You could have a mystery hundred thousand dollars worth of equipment but if you
don’t know how to use it or if you have not enough experience for taking the
time to level it off and experience teachers can be quite disastrous

Waves Center is handy for adjusting center to sides balance in a stereo
image. I mean, you can do that yourself with mid/side routing, but it's handy
to just adjust a couple controls in a plugin.
Before getting Ozone Advanced, my favorite limiter was Elephant by Voxengo.
It has several algorithms you can flip through quickly while playing your
material, so you kind of get a quick gut reaction to each. Ok, too smooth,
too punchy, that one makes me feel a bit anxious etc.
I'm going to go out on a limb here and say that having the ears and mindset
are more important than having whatever tool everyone is raving about at any
particular moment.
I used to buy tons of plugins, or acquire them through other means, whatever
was supposedly the latest and greatest. Now I probably use stock plugins in
my DAW 75% of the time, and try not to read the various online forums such as
Gearsluts, where people debate endlessly about different plugins.

Agreed. You could probably master entirely with
the stock plugins in Samplitude.
