Best Crossfeed Plugin For Foobar?? - Page 3

post #31 of 44

I've tried isone pro already. It has nice spatiality but messes with phasing IMO. I could never really get a natural setting with it after hours and hours of setting up.

X2. I really don't understand what the fuss is all about tbh. I want my xfeed to color the sound as little as possible, if I wanted a reverb I'd use one.

Here we go again Leeperry, Looking for Xfeed again LOL 

 

After refreshing the ears by listening without crossfeed for a while and going back to headfit for example, I just realized that it was giving me a change in the sound more than the actual crossfeed effect that I wanted. BS2B is just way too colored, Isone pro is cool at first and makes one feel like he does when buying a new toy but it fades away after you realize it is coloring the sound and phase too much. Naive Xfeed is the best so far for me since it gives me the compacted soundstage with good placement that I want without killing the tonality like bs2b but it still has an effect of making the treble a little detached from the rest of the sound... sort of like using headroom crossfeed and engaging the brightness filter switch. It's subtle though but its there. I guess I'm okay with the naive xfeed and feel it to be better than using no xfeed at all but I am still fishing to try more plugins if there are any. Something subtle would be really nice ala naive.

Not really, VNP at 6.2%/3.79ms is still "it" for me...hardly colored and no deaf ear syndrom. And it's free too.

Oh yah I forgot about that! Reason why I stopped using it was because it wouldn't work with windows 7. Can you post the link of the best build here so that I can try it with my current install of w7? If it doesn't work then I know its definitely a w7 issue since i have reinstalled my OS a couple of times since then already.

Well, it's still available here: http://vellocet.com/software/VNoPhones.html

 

It might hiccup w/ some VST wrappers because it doesn't a GUI, but any competent VST host will get it working nicely. It works like charm in uLilith FWIW.

Still that setting makes the vocals a little thin and sharp even though its better than the stock setting at making things less etched.

I did like how ulilith sounded but couldn't stand the interface. Mediamonkey looks nice but sounds recessed in the mids vs foobar and is even more unstable with vst plugins
