Hey guys...this is my first post. I'm wondering if there are any decent free pluginis for protools that I can download. I'm a pretty new protools user. I'm just looking to get a few easy plugins for added effect potential. Any tips for me? Thanks, Ryan

free? and pro tools? ha, ha, ha, thats a good one, you must be new!

in fact there are TONS of free plugin ins out there. problem being most of them are VST. not so much of a problem if you get FXpansion's VST to RTAS wrapper though. Then you can utilise sites such as vstplanet.com and many others. Do a Google and see what u can find

also digidesign have some on their site! check out the bomb factory ones here http://digidesign.com/index.cfm?&key=/products/details.cfm&itemid=4201&template=overview&langid=1

and EQ III here http://digidesign.com/index.cfm?&key=/products/details.cfm&itemid=4562&template=overview&langid=1

hope this helps!

Roger Nichols has a free RTAS plug in called the inspector. But I have yet to get it to work. I'm a total newbie though

Although there are a lot of smart programmers out there I don't trust free plug-ins. For the simple fact that nothing in life is FREE! I'd rather have the peace of mind by saving up and buying a quality bundle of plugins that i kno will work and I will have support if anything goes wrong then to worry about a free plug in crashing or somehow destroying a session I've been working on. Thats just my opinion. The reason certain plug-ins are more expensive is because they are a lot better. It's like comparing the Dollar Menu at McDonalds with a 5 star restaurant.
