Man, I just love that the paragraph you just wrote is right on the border of unintelligible gibberish for anyone who’s not completely tuned in to VST world.

The same can be done for example with Voltage Modular. It has a VST container to which you can drop whatever VST and then route it however you like in true modular fashion.

Yeah there’s a few things that do this (including Kushview Element), I’ve just never seen them built in to a DAW.

Yeah… but you could also grab the LA-2A compressor, if you haven’t gotten it yet - it’s pretty good!

Ahh, it didn’t offer it as I already had it. I wonder if I can sell it

Ok Microtonic is fantastic 
Not cheap, very old, and yet it still might be the best sounding general purpose drum synth.
This plus d16’s stuff has me very happy and totally covered for synth drums now. I was resigned to making them all in phase plant (which, to be honest, would not have been bad), but these dedicated plugins are fun.
Patternarium is just fascinating. It’s basically an online space that generates random Microtonic patterns and patches, and then the community votes on them, and the good ones evolve to further tiers of voting, with more random tweaks, ad infinitum, until they evolve into these refined and interesting percussion sets. It’s basically a musical version of generative random permutations like the game of life, but with an evolutionary “survival of the fittest” aspect.
Cameron passed on Microtonic initially then was like “whoa”, and worked it in to his “I was wrong about these” video.

d16’s Nepheton 2 finally landed! And yep, it’s an 808
Sounds great, looks great, has the same excellent sequencer they added to Drumazon 2.
Sweet, this completes their second revisions of their big 3; Drumazon 2 for the TR-909, Nepheton 2 for the TR-808, and Phoscyon 2 for the TB-303.

This just popped up in my feed, and I thought I’d drop it here:
I don’t understand half of it, but it made me think of @howard immediately
