I think we should be sharing more about what we use for post production.

I'm using Reaper on a Macbook Pro, and find that I use a few plugins over and over again when mastering my live recordings. Here are some of them:

EQ:
DDMF 6144, which mimics a Neve Portico 5033 clone for $39 (https://ddmf.eu/6144-equalizer-plugin/)
Toneboosters Parametric EQ included in their TrackEssentials bundle v3 for EUR 20.00 (http://www.toneboosters.com/tb-trackessentials-bundle/)
Sonimus SonEq Pro, $59 (http://sonimus.com/products/soneqpro/)

Dynamics:
Ik Multimedia White 2a, a simple La-2a clone (http://www.ikmultimedia.com/products/trwhite2a/)
Klanghelm MJUC, which mimics 3 vintage "tube" compressors:(https://klanghelm.com/contents/products/MJUC/MJUC.php),

Spacial Processing:
Klanghelm VUMTdeluxe, this is a really cool metering plugin which is really useful for analyzing how dynamics and EQ affect your headroom, is also perfect for and fixing L/R balance issues and for using M/S processing to adjust the width of the stereo image (https://klanghelm.com/contents/products/VUMTdeluxe/VUMTdeluxe.php)

One of my favorites for room recordings is the Kush Audio Clariphonic EQ. It's solely a parallel high shelf boost, but I find a little of it useful on most room stuff.

I only use a couple of VST plugins in Wavelab 6 but almost every show I process gets a touch of

API 550 EQ - it looks like a 500 module with knobs and is fully sweepable in each range

and

Waves L3 Multimaximizer Stereo - I set the compression to -2 or -3 and the output to -.1 dB. Does a great job of giving a little more oomph and squeezing a little extra volume without being harsh or crunchy. Sounds really natural... much more so than any other compression tool I've used. I use the Basic or Extremely Analog presets.
