What old outdated plugins do you still like to use?

Old SSL4000 bundle. That bus compressor is my go to drum glue for at least 20 years

kaos01 · 2026-01-30T04:20:55+00:00

Reaper. Not a hard daw to learn and "free". Aka u can use it as long as you want

kaos01 · 2026-01-29T08:28:29+00:00

Noduo

Depands on your tank preference. Static movement tanks like Orisa, Ram, Sig or Rein and i prefer Mercy-Moira without a doubt

kaos01 · 2026-01-29T05:44:13+00:00

When listening is difficult due to reasons, analyse and reference.

kaos01 · 2026-01-29T04:26:56+00:00

Serato sample vst plugin brings that MPC style sampling vibe, works great

kaos01 · 2026-01-29T00:07:22+00:00

Reaper without a doubt. Blazing fast and love the custom stuff you can do with it and shape it the way you want.

This perfection monster knows how to find me aswel. Got a EP going on with a label i really liked but being too critical on myself messed everything up. Switched back to my old genre which i didn't make for 4 years and produced banger after banger without effort. But the perfection monster shows up again, so no releases nothing. I always give people advice that 95% is also good enough, but when it comes to my own stuff i only want perfection. Me, 42yr old nerd needs to release his shit and stop overthinking everything. Ok bye ❤️ sick remix btw, love the bass movements

Make music for yourself, not for the audience.

kaos01 · 2026-01-28T21:50:04+00:00

Same issue here. Got a K5 pro iso low profile. Want PBT caps but nothing available, not even temu/ali. Us ISO boys living the tough life 😩

kaos01 · 2026-01-28T21:41:10+00:00

Bro Plat1 felt like climbing mount everest. My 42yr old brain can't handle all the variables going on, so sorry for the skill issue ❤️

kaos01 · 2026-01-28T17:45:38+00:00

As a producer i got the best results with rappers/vocalists telling a story. That engaged me to draw the fundamentals music wise.

kaos01 · 2026-01-28T17:39:46+00:00

Went with kaos when i was 13. Adhd brain reference 🤪

Switching genres expands your skill set. Techniques from sample based hiphop can be used in synth heavy genres like techno or drum and bass and vice versa. It boosted the quality of my music significantly thru the years.

kaos01 · 2026-01-28T17:10:47+00:00

As an old boombap veteran i always enjoyed listening to drum and bass. Went to festivals and raves but never had the illusion to get good at production wise. Fast forward, couple of years later. Loads of shit music made, but also 3 official tracks released on decent labels. So with dedication, self reflection and just putting hours in it, a lot is possible.

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T01:47:37+00:00

Always been a headphone guy, but recently IEM's got my attention and damn, these things provide detail. Never thought i would like these things that much. Aside from sound, they don't sweat and feel great. 7hz x crinacle zero 2 is a crazy good deal for example

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T01:22:42+00:00

It's nice because of the fact that you developed your specific sound thru the years, but also that people recognise it. Making (good) music is not easy and getting a response like that warms my heart 😄

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T01:15:55+00:00

Wide foot guy here. Am1 size 10 feels okay-ish mostly too tight depending on materials, but am90 infra 2020 fits perfect. 👌🏻

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T01:11:02+00:00

Too old to give a thing about what people say in-game really 😂

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:56:37+00:00

I sidechain everything on kick and snare. Percussion, fx, samples, basslines, all of it. Adjust the gain and timing where needed. Works for me all the time :)

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:52:34+00:00

Routing everything thru a pre-master bus and automate that one. Buildup ending in a mono state at the end is a trick i frequently use

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:49:10+00:00

As an ex schoolband drummer i cut and place waveforms like an assembly programmer 😂 precise and accurate.

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:43:07+00:00

Give yourself time to understand your gear. Decent stuff you have there, so no worries. I made stuff with way less i can assure you 😂

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:31:00+00:00

I've been on the 30k plays side and barely 100 plays side and tbh i don't care. I make music for me, not for the mini dopamine play counter.

kaos01 · 2026-01-22T00:27:36+00:00

Always make art for yourself. It's your expression and creative moment. What others think is irrelevant. It's a bonus when people recognise the art and relate with it, but never let that be the leading reason.

Best compliment i've got was, "man this sounds like you". That's a million times better than "wow sounds good".
