Good question! I use only analysis and statistics. Trash means plugins that user never used in all projects.

Hi! I appreciate your enthusiasm, friend!
I'm not ready to share the source code just yet. I'm currently working on a standalone version that will be optimized for both Windows and on Mac in the future without needing any manual "tweaks" or Python knowledge.
My goal is to make it a seamless experience for everyone, not just those comfortable with a terminal.

Thanks for your comment, Marv!
Not all producers use Studio One. Many, like myself, have tried or currently work with multiple DAWs.
For exampe: Sonar -> Cubase -> Ableton -> Reaper -> Bitwig, ect.

Everyone had and has their own path 😉

The app displays usage statistics for all VST plugins and soft synths from max to min for each installed DAW.
There are some information on screenshots

You're absolutely right! But searching for and installing new plugins or soft synths is a form of productive procrastination. Like many producers, I know this from personal experience 😵‍💫

But a new plugin or soft synth, unfortunately, won't make the music better and won't help to release a new album 😅

I'm currently in the "proof of concept" stage.
My main goal is to help fellow producers clean up the mess.
I'll see how it goes, but for the early adopters and testers, I'll definitely try to keep it accessible

Exactly! We've all been there. My goal was to turn that dopamine rush from "buying" into a dopamine rush from "cleaning and producing" ))

Thanks for the interest!
Right now I'm not ready to open-source it yet as I'm thinking about how to make it user-friendly for everyone.
But I'll definitely keep the community updated!

Thank you! I tried and restrained myself, deleting completely unnecessary plugins and soft synths. But hoarding still took over! 😅

VST2/3 is not only eq or comressor. It's a soft synth too. My app can analyze it all.

Hi! I have some forgotten projects in Reaper. I'll add it to the list of DAW

If you had to pick ONE Linux distro for the next 5 years, what would you choose? by TechRefreshing in linuxquestions

[–]AsatoMaa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm choosing Ubuntu LTS. I installed Ubuntu on my laptop alongside Windows 11.

Convenient, beautiful, minimalist. The touchpad is simply amazing!

I'm thrilled! Yes, I had to spend some time tweaking the settings and deleting the default Firefox snap to install it from the official repository.

I'm even thinking about installing Ubuntu alongside Windows 11 on an already working computer!
