I gotta add .... I just got 3 plug-ins that are still blowing me away.
Ya havta search for em, but they consist of 3 virtual copies of the old Beatles studio equipment from Abbey Road circa 1960 .... RS135, 127 etc...They're the most simplest of plug-ins and kinda pricey, but they completely convey exactly why they were in use, so many years ago to accentuate certain tracks. I've done a lot of research into old Beatles recordings and the one thing that always evaded me was the 'boost' or 'accentuation' that can be heard on a lot all of their old albums.
As soon as I got these plug-ins, that 'sound' that was missing from all the old recordings was immediately evident.

The only missing element now is the live, "echo chamber" that is pretty much impossible to emulate.
