If you were stuck on a deserted island and could only bring one plug-in.. what would it be, and why?

bonus: what is the coolest plug-in you use?
 
But plug. The coolest? Motorized but plug.
Post this about 6 or 7 more times and you'll get a lot of cool ideas like this.
 
you should at least break down the plugins into a few categories like

fave compressor plug-in

EQ plug-in etc.
 
I'd probably go with some sort of multi-band compressor ... since it could basically serve as an EQ with the right settings ... or a straight-ahead compressor ... or a de-esser / de-popper, again with the right settings.

You could kill a lot of birds with that stone if it was all you had to work with.

The coolest plugin I use? :D Wow, that's a loaded question. Sort of like asking what's the smoothest sandpaper, or the dryest water. Maybe Quadrafuzz. Yea, I'd say Quadrafuzz is probably the least uncool (and bordering on cool) plugin I use.
 
If only one, Izotope Ozone Mastering plugin.

Coolest, The UAD-1 LA2A comopressor.
 
antares auto-tune is my desert-island pick. i can live with not having reverb, and on a deserted island, i won't care about being louder than the next guy, but out of tune vocals... hell no.
 
I use pro tools and the one plug in that I always use/can't live without is.........D-Verb
 
Waves Phase linear EQ. Its the bomb. You can compress certain bands like a multiband compressor but it just sounds sooo much better and more real. The lo frequencies can be made solid like in commercial cds.
 
I wouldn't bring any plugins to a deserted island, I would bring Traci Lords.

ecktronic - can you explain your compression technique using Waves Phase linear EQ in a little more detail please? I'm not getting what you mean by compress - how do you do it with this plug? Thanx
 
Hummmm..

Freeverb - It fits my voice fine

Antares Auto-Tune - It fix's my voice fine
 
I refuse to just pick only one plugin, but these are some of my favorites:

EQ: Sony Oxford EQ
Compressor: BombFactory 1176
Reverb: Eventide Reverb

Coolest Plugin? That's easy: McDsp Analog Channel
