I always prefer real drums
Yea. I just don't think you and I were 1% of SSO then.

I like recorded ones though, but if you take a look at how much effort you have to put in to record really good sounding drums (and in the end it often sounds shitty by comparing it to programmed ones) and how easy it is to just programming them, I think it's not worth the work for normal homerecording purposes. Apart from that a real drummer makes mistakes and sometimes isn't playing tight, the machine is
(Sounds like we're getting into the Matrix asap)

I miss slampop, and this is a wicked example of his drummer, the mix on these drums for this track was beastly.
Can't wait to start live tracking when my drummer gets his mics in.

Softube FET comp (particularly on snare), waves api-2500 comp. This thing is a beast on drums. Also waves REQ is my main equalizer.
Another plugin I always have is T-racks Meters. It has a spectrum analyzer, monitors db, perceived loudness, phase, etc. Very useful, for mastering in particular. Its honestly the only useful thing in T-racks, other than the opto compressor imo.

Some of my fave plugins are:
Limiting/loudness plugins -
Izotope Ozone 4
Waves L2
PSP MixSaturator 2
Logic Adlimit or whatever it's called
EQ -
Sonnox EQ
Waves SSL
Compressors -
Waves CLA76 on vox
Waves API 2500 on drums
Logic's built in compressor on guitars
Vocal Tuning/fake harmonies:
Celemony Melodyne
Autotune
VST:
Superior Drums - not really processed
Steven Slate Drums - Already processed, just need parallel compression to make them sound more alive
Those would be my go to plugs for any situation really.
