In reply to Ike. To be honest, I have no idea, I have read this many times... I did not rest it myself as I am very happy with my V3 and don't see why I would need to pay to get the v4 :)

Well, they’re different plugins. While v3 emulates famous reel to reel recorders, v4 doesn’t (even though, under “saturate”, one can select tape saturation modes obtained from Ferox, ReelBus v2 and ReelBus v3) and let’s you make your own tape machines. That’s why I want to have both of them but if I had to, I would probably choose v4 over v3. Still, I can imagine that some people like v3 better. Horses for courses and all that…

In reply to FrozenjaZz. Why are so many claiming that Reelbus v3 sounds better than v4? Is that some sort of urban myth?

Here’s the link to no installer versions:

Oh, I did not realize, the plugins I bought just 5 years ago are now freeware!!
ReelBus v3 being my favorite one, always on my master bus, and it seems ReelBus v4 cannot achieve the same good ol’ sound… so…

“The Windows and macOS versions of the TrackEssentials and BusTools (v3) plug-ins are enjoying their well-deserved retirement after being in service for over a decade and are now made available as freeware”

Enjoy, everything is here => https://www.toneboosters.com/support.html, in the ”
Where can I find older (legacy v3) plug-ins?” section

In reply to Georg.

Well, this is cool to have the choice, but I have been happily using the following
multiband correlation meter for ages (I did not test the TB one, so I can’t compare)

In reply to Michael. It is not an installation manager that downloads installers. It is a bundled standalone installer that lets you choose which plugin to install (similar to Meldas installer). Default setting is to install all plugins so first select install no plugins, then find GonioMeter and select install this.

Looks like a cool tool… too bad there doesn’t seem to be a standalone installer option. The last thing I want is ANOTHER random developer-specific plugin installer.

Nice. Thx I’ve been using Reelbus, Ferox, Barricade and Sibalance (v3 is still one of the best and most flexible de-essers you can find free or paid and v4 is even better) since day one. I will upgrade to version 4, at least Reelbus and Sibalance (Ferox doesn’t exist as a separate plugin any more, but it’s inside of Reelbus instead).
