The HG-Q plugin, a meticulously modeled version of the forthcoming HG-Q hardware EQ that’s seven years in the making. Building on the acclaimed collaboration that brought the HG-2 to life, this revolutionary EQ combines analog warmth with cutting-edge flexibility and tonal depth, bringing an entirely new dimension to EQs.
Terrific on bass guitars, kicks, vocals, parallel processing, buses and more, the 1176 is one of the most iconic limiters of all time for good reason. With the MC77 you have access to the same unrivaled tone and lightning-fast response as the original 1176, with the added bonus of onboard sidechaining, stereo linking, and more.
The AXFX AAX/CLAP/VST2 8-unit effect rack plugin is based on the “external” effects from our flagship AX73 synthesizer. The AXFX lets you use these 8 versatile 1980s style effects on any synth, guitar, vocals, or other audio source. The AXFX includes over 100 presets designed by renowned sound designers such as Daniel Stawczyk, Charis Linos, and Solidtrax. For more information, check out the searchable online manual.
Impress is a wideband stereo compressor including side-chaining, various prefilter options and state-of-the-art over sampling. The goal of the design was to cover a broad range of compression applications in today’s mixing and mastering situations with strong focus on low aliasing. So, Impress could be used to shape subtle a snare sound, glue different tracks on instrument bus and even do complex tasks like deessing or voice over’s.

The original KLEIN & HUMMEL UE-100® EQs are extremely rare and expensive. But Rafa Sardina – who has 12 Grammy wins and 35 nominations – owns 10 of them! What is so special about this weird and wonderful device? For some time, hardware equalizers had to each be developed with a specific purpose in mind, requiring engineers to combine different EQ types in one signal chain in order to achieve the frequency response they needed on any given source. They would have to accept the necessary evil of the resulting phase and intermodulation distortion when treating these sounds. When released in 1961, the Klein & Hummel UE-100 Universal Equalizer changed all that. This all-tube minimum phase EQ used six discrete filter modules to create a collection of band-pass filters that could create dynamic curves for any application from source mixing to vocal tracking to mastering. While some earlier UE-100s were used to transparently filter out junk low and high frequencies when printing to tape and vinyl, it quickly became commonplace to take advantage of the unique pushbutton frequency selection; this provided an easy way to not only recall settings, but also alter them on the fly while recording a performance. The UE-100 became known for its musically warm curves and precise response, offering a myriad of possibilities for treating frequencies by boosting and/or cutting across the spectrum to shape sounds “like a Pultec on steroids.”
Noise Bleach is a mixing tool system with 8 channels noise gate, working on any kind of audio, like drums, guitar, bass, vocals. Noise Bleach removes extra noise or unwanted resonances efficiently, turning any busy loop to its clearest version, and can also be used as a mixing expression tool, transforming a legato to a pizzicato with fast attack audio.
