WHY I CANCELLED THE KIT BLACKBIRD BB N105 NEVE PLUGIN SHOOTOUT
John McBride and his blackbird studio released a neve 8078 console eq plugin via kit plugins. I had originally planned on a neve console plugin shootout with noiseash need 33102 and lindell 80 channel but unfortunately the blackbird plugin is completely broken as a vst plugin. As an aax plugin in pro tools 2021 there are no latency issues but that doesnt change the convolution artefacts like rippling, truncation, windowing. It also has audible aliasing when saturating the mic pre which also doesnt seem to be working correctly as it only seems to make audible harmonics at a certain stage of the mic preamp stage. There is also no auto gain compensation for the mic pre stage which is another disappointing feature for a $99 audio plugin.
I've personally seen better performance in cheaper plugins and free music production software like analog obsession. I am unsure whether the issue is due to plugin developers releasing plugins without beta testing or simply rushing releases and dealing with consumer complaints via updates after taking their money. its possibly the developers not having the knowledge to make convolution plugins and hardware sampling without audible artefacts which have already been fixed by acustica audio nebula developers like tim petherick.
