Who is Terry West? What a generious and gifted person. They are also enjoyable to look at.. Does Terry have a web site? Thanks Terry West!
martin@coachingsupport.com
These are awesome. I would definitely love to know more about the plugs, how they were made (SynthEdit, C++), how long they have been in production, etc.
Hi Martin, Terry has a website here (it’s all in Dutch though).
Roby, I believe Terry coded the plugins with assembly, and the GUI was done in SynthEdit (with some ext. modules).
Awesome plugs bro… Thanks…!!…
Kind regards…
Dear Terry,
I arrived at this website (free-plugin-list.com) via a link related to NewTek’s SpeedEDIT.
I downloaded your Steady and SteadyPro Bundle, as these were the only ones of interest to me right now. However, after downloading, unarchiving and installing them in the VST folder in SpeedEDIT, I’ve not seen any evidence of their being there or anything that brings up their respective control screens. What am I not doing correctly, or does SpeedEDIT perhaps just not support your utilities?
Thanks!
RovinRalph
thank you for your great efforts! I downloaded (I think) every piece of software you are sharing here with us, so I’ll give them a try and come back later to leave a comment, a little reward for such a huge work you’ve been doing here.
THANK YOU ALL, my best 4 U!
Thanks everybody.
First i like to mention that i have a plugin dedicated website: http://www.terrywest.110mb.com.
@RovinRalph: Does SpeedEdit really support vst plugins?
Steady Pro should work in all major hosts and supports Xp~Vista.
Else mail me through my site.
To all other commenter’s: thanks and visit my site for updates and new plugins.
Great job with the website Terry and thanks a lot for your hard work!
i’ve used the vocal eq/comp-pro on a few things now, powerful and smooth, i even used it with great results on a percussion track that was getting lost in the mix thanks ,great tools!
Hi, I`m completely new to visti and i`ve just downloaded easyvox v 1.3, but i cant find a manuel and have no idea how it works, is there someplace i can find one ?
