課程總結

許多音樂製作軟件都自帶各種混音插件，如EQ均衡器、Compressor壓縮、Reverb迴音和Delay殘響等，這些插件足以幫助製作整個混音效果。

此外，網上還有很多免費插件，從有時間限制的免費下載，到購買某些產品（如Audio Interface）時附帶的免費附加插件。

說到付費購買插件，通常建議是為了購買虛擬樂器插件，而非混音插件。它們能提供比大多數軟件自帶虛擬樂器插件更豐富、更好的聲音和音調。從錢的角度來說，尋找優惠的最佳時機是每年的年底，因為黑色星期五和聖誕節假期會使大多數插件的價格降到最低。此外，七月初美國國慶節通常會在年中左右推出價格折扣。最後，一些公司支持用戶註冊後永久訪問插件，甚至在將來根據需要提供重新下載的功能。

Lesson Summary

Many music production and editing software come with a variety of audio plugins for mixing, such as EQ, Compression, Reverb, and Delay that are more than enough to assist with making the an entire mix. Additionally, there are plenty of free plugins available online, from time-limited open-source options, to free additional plugins that come when you purchase certain products like an audio interface. When it comes to paying for plugins, it is typically for virtual instrument or sound sources. These can provide sounds and tones that are richer and better than the stock plugins that come with most software. Money-wise, the best times to look for deals are the end of each year, when Black Friday and Christmas holidays drive most plugins to their lowest. Additionally, the 4th of July celebrations often feature pricing discounts around mid-year. Lastly, some companies support users by offering permanent access to plugins when registered, even offering the ability to re-download in the future as needed.
