Your current workflow go-to's

[V.J. Retro]

What are your current go-to plugins, hardware or instruments for your production, mixing, and mastering process?


Do you tend to primarily start with this instrument, or that sampler. Or typically this is your go to EQ or Compressor or processor you're chucking on your tracks or your master.


Often out of force of habit and reliability, why did that tool become your go-to?


Images welcomed

If I'm using the Akai MPC X, I would usually use the AIR Flavor Pro, Lo-Fly and other AIR plugins for mixing. When I use either Cubase or FL Studio, I would master my beats using the Ozone 11 Mastering plugin and the Space Replicator.

The Akai plugins are usually a force of habit and the Mastering plugins are a reliability to me.
