For voice recordings - Izotope RX8 elements. Found it for $9 right now. Aggravating mouth noises be gone.

Magnetic charging cables. Some can't take advantage of the higher speed charging (only connecting V+ and ground), but it's unreasonably nice to have cables throughout the house that can support all of your devices.

A comfortable mouse with enough buttons. A comfortable keyboard that just works, even if you don't have the driver software.



Any good mice you could recommend? I used to use a Razer Naga during my MMO days and I've really missed the side button array, but I found myself replacing them way too often (they'd wear out and start double clicking in just 6 months on average).


I tend to prefer gaming mice, simply for their long-term comfort, lots of buttons, and precision. I'm still holding on to a Logitech G9, it's one of the best mice I've ever had. Discontinued, sadly.

The Logitech MX series is pretty decent, though I've had to start fighting with uneven mousewheel acceleration. Corsair makes decent mice, and Razer as well.

The double click issue I've had happen with a couple of products. A Razer opto-mechanical keyboard had this crop up, a previous Logitech MMO mouse did this (double left click as well), and even a "Topre" switch keyboard had this happen. I haven't had it happen with cherry switch keyboards (yet), but I'm sure it will.

It almost seems like an industry-wide problem that combines less-expensive switch components and debouncing tolerances that are set too tightly - it's like none of the newer products are set up to handle aging switches. Just a guess though.


What sort of voice recordings? Like voice notes in chat apps or voice overs?


where can I get Izotope RX8 elements for $9 ? that is a really good deal


Well, hell. Apparently I got in on a sale. I just purchased it directly from Izotope's store. It's not showing the discounted price for me now.

Sorry about that.


I was able to find it for $19 now. Do you know if you can buy additional plugins for it?


So far as I've found, they only sell the individual tools in the "Elements", "Standard", and "Professional" bundles.

The other tools I use in my FX chains are all reaper built-ins and plugins.


What are some of your most used plugins for reaper?
