Quote: I was wondering where to get more effects to use in PD11? Nothing in particular, just in general.

I have read about NewBlue which seems to be the only official plugin so to speak. Anybody think it's any good?


On a side note, here is my first published video if anybody is interested: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0LRc-mO5vg

You might want to check out Cyberlink's Director Zone before you buy anything. Have you looked and not found anything interesting?

Anything I post unless stated with a reference is my personal opinion.

New Blue has a vast array of audio and video plug-ins.
Smartsound/Magic Music is a plug-in, too.
Cyberlink Audiodirector and ColorDirector also interface with the current version (11) of PD.
DirectorZone, as stated by Steve, has many items to choose from, but you may need to cut through lots of amateur-hour "effects" to find what you want.
It is possible that more companies may be available for the next version of PD, 12, 13, 14 as PD gets more and more popular. For the most part, I have to say, if PD ain't got it, you probably don't need it.

Thanks guys, both really helpful.

Be sure if you look for New Blue in particular, you make sure it is a PD-compatible plug-in. HP Envy Phoenix/4thGen i7-4770(4@3.4GHz~turbo>3.9)
