    Im actually in the process of doing just this. I've plug ins I dont even know what they do. I'm using a dummy project to just these plug ins and see what they do. Whatever is useless goes. Nice vid bro.

      That's awesome! Yeah, there were a few that I had no idea what they were 😅 Probably automatically added to a bundle over the years.
      Thanks for watching, appreciate the comment, and have fun cleaning out your plugin list!

    Thanks for showing how to hide duplicate plugins in Studio One. I could also remove all of the AU from my list.

      Yeah, it’s kind of annoying when those duplicate plug-ins show up. Glad the video was able to help you out! Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment 👍

    I can also vouch for Greg's mixing and mastering. I recorded two full-length albums with him last year and the mixes and masters came out better than other professional studios I've used

    I find it ironic that you're advocating deleting/hiding plugins instead of organising them into plugin folders through the drag and drop browser in S1. Particularly as you use S1 and it's so simple to do. I have about 600 plugins arranged into lots of different folders and flavours. I'll often know how I want to process a signal and then choose from the one of all the different flavours of that process in the folder. I couldn't be happier and my mixing is better because I'm continually grabbing plugs that I might have forgotten about, but when it comes to the choice, they are there in the folder and I can see them and so they get used.

      I have all the really well used plugins on macros so I can add them with a touch of a button.

      You're right that Studio One has great options for arranging and organizing plugins which allows you to set it up for your preferred workflow. I do also set up favorites, mix templates, and FX chains for streamlined work as well.
      As far as number of plugins, for me personally, I find that i don't need a lot of plugins to record and mix my songs. I prefer to have a few go-to plugins that I know really well and get me where I want to go. Tinkering with plugins isn't where the fun is for me.
      Of course I'll try out other plugins from time-to-time to see if there's something I like better, but I like keeping my list pretty short. I find that's a better workflow for me.
      Thanks for watching and appreciate you sharing how you organize your plugins!
