The best free alternative to Pro-Q 3 is the ZL Audio ZL Equalizer. It’s essentially FabFilter Pro-Q 3, but with additional powerful features you didn’t even know you needed.
@@jasongravely7217 free versions means he found the exact same plug-in, but for free versus free alternative, which is different plug-ins that do the same thing
This is mere semantics and your interpretation is in no way exclusively correct. See the Oxford definition for version which includes “other forms of the same type of thing.”
@jasongravely7217 Lol. Absolutely nothing at all. Honestly, his reply sounds like something a plant of one of those paid products would put in the comments
My favourite free plugin is Spoton, a replacement for Auto-tune which cost like $399 or something. Spoton has less features but personally it got all I need.
Wow that Tal reverb 2 is something that I had overlooked. It has an interesting sound and actually outputs a seemingly louder signal than a lot of other verb plugins I've used. Also for another excellent free guitar library check out Impact Soundworks' free kontakt libraries.There's two actually. Shreddage 3 precision and Shreddage 3 Stratus. Both sound excellent
I'm glad you found a new plugin from this! Thanks for adding to the conversation with your detailed suggestion for a free guitar, as I'm sure there's many people who'd find that valuable.
Great video! It'll be nice if there are timestamps in the video to indicate when you start talking about a plugin and also if the links for these plugins were posted in the description. Thanks for the information. 🎉
@@theworldsproject stock plugins are different than intentionally trying to replace a paid plugin with a free version. If you have zero money then you do need to learn to get by with what you have. Everything these days is a race to the bottom. If you do make money from recording and mixing then buying plugins is a tax write off but your first instinct should be to buy a plugin hoping to make you a better mixer.
@@theworldsproject i would bro but im too broke, i mean personally i dont think some plugins are worth the money, i get they put alot of work into it but some are just overpriced
@@theworldsproject i feel you.. and my laptop is congested with Plugs and VSTs i've bought over the years (especially from Native Instruments, who just updated their software, and the update is NOT free. i paid for that too). I remember i bought Spectrasonics Trilian (vault of Bass instruments), i loved it so much i paid for the electronic download, and ALSO the boxed physical hard drive to do the installs offline.. WELL, soon after that Spectrasonics did something that rendered my boxed set of CDs and Hard drive unusable. It's like it was phased out. & i was like hey, i paid for this. i felt like a robbery happened.. and when my computer crashed, i had to pay for it again (& their stuff is crazy expensive). I remember when VSTs and Plugs used to be the cheaper alternative to buying the hardware versions, or instruments.. NOW in 2024, there are Plugins and VSTs that cost more than the actual thing its replicating. and then they only let you do a certain amount of Install, iLok will stop letting you use what you paid for if you installed it too many times (when computers crash, and you reinstall things you can get feedback like you're on a different computer, when it's actually the same, and it subtracts from your allotted amount of installs). Also, there are some vendors/developers who once you've paid for something, and have to deal with their wacky way of doing an install (place the dll file here, and rescan there.. cross your heart and pray.. Lol) when none of that works.. you email them, because there is no customer service number.. & they IGNORE you. Then you're forced to go to some forum online, where everyone is venting, and the blind are leading the blind. So, i've supported these developers, but the rip off is real..
@@LGN.420 If u are broke, u can use actual free plugins, most which are on par or at least close enough to paid ones. Being broke is no excuse to become a vile criminal!

SYNTH: Vital, OBXD, Surge XT, GR8, Tyrell N6
Bass guitar: Modo Bass
Thanks for sharing!
Free versions is not the same as free alternatives. Headline is a bit misleading.
I appreciate your feedback, alternatives may be a clearer word to use in the title. Thanks for sharing your comment.
What’s the difference between the two words in this context?

agreed.
@@ettiennelane9173 :)
Tokyo Dawn plugins are so underrated
Which is your favorite to use?
@sakkeist Tokyo Dawn go crazy fr
Nice to see alternatives thank you. How about a vocal plugin alternatives for autotune?
I’ve heard some good things about Spoton - are you familiar with that one?
@theworldsproject I'll have a look thank you
Fabfilter and Ozone have different Q-values..ZL equalizer is a free alternative on win, Mac and Linux that does all that pro Q does..
Yes, I did mention the Q-values differ in the video. And thanks for sharing another EQ alternative!

Thank you for the kind comment and feedback!
Love your videos ❤
Thank you 🫶🏻
Awesome! Thanks for these!
My pleasure!
Amazing video, really helpful as i needed a good reverb plugin! Thank you Martin!
Give me your feedback once you've tried it!
Raum is a great free reverb if you don't have it
@@Haintly Thanks for sharing!
If you don't play for software then why should someone pay you for your recording or mixing services?
So if someone mixes a song using stock plugins from a DAW they bought, should they be compensated for their work?

Appreciate it, thanks!
I will try the EQ. I usually use the EQ from Ableton, i will compare
Great, let me know how it works!
@ sure 😊 Thank you for your video ! 🙂
for best free reverb checkout the Magic7 by Wave Alchemy
Thanks for sharing!
Im gonna check these out… my fave free reverb so far has been RAUM by Native Instruments, its amazing. And Valhalla Supermassive
@@ViN-EzL you will appreciate the magic 7
I use Kotelnikov extensively
Nice!
You’re using Ozone 11 Advanced! That’s a $300 plugin!
fruity parametric eq>
The goat! :)
Did Ozone EQ Free?
Yes!
Yes, but why are you using an ancient TAL Reverb and not the current one? 😄
😄
You guys paid for plugins 👀 !!!
❤
:)
any plugin can be free if you know where to look 👀
While that's a fact, it's important to support the developers who's products you're using.
