OVERLOUD GEMS
• Ultra oversample mode for super accurate analog emulation.
•
EQ495
, a very popular equalizer found in one of the most acclaimed vinyl transfer consoles from the
‘70s through to ‘90s.
Notable features:
• Top quality and faithful modeling, to let you reproduce exactly the same tones as the real
gear with no compromises;
• Super musical EQ curves, providing a unique tone not available on any other channel EQ.
•
TAPEDESK
, another meticulous reproduction of the
fi
rst microprocessor-controlled tape machine
from the late ‘70s. And including models of three di
ff
erent history-making mixing consoles from
the annals of analog recording: the same ones behind an endless number of world-class rock and
pop hits from those years. Combinations still very appreciated today for the character of their mic-
pre transformers and warm tape saturation.
Notable features:
• Includes the models of three di
ff
erent mixing consoles in order to reproduce the whole sig-
nal path just as in the real world, where console channel strips de
fi
nitely play their role in
the
fi
nal sound along with interactions with the tape machine itself;
• CPU load so low that you can use many instances, just as you would do in the real world:
where individual console channels are recorded across multiple tracks on tape; and then,
during playback, each track is summed through distinct mix channels back on the con-
sole.
•
EQ84
, an iconic mic preamp and EQ module providing fat, smooth sounds.
Notable features:
• O
ff
ers an additional mid range EQ band to improve
fl
exibility;
• Original stepped knobs replaced by fully variable knobs to get smooth response and ac-
cess to intermediate values; but still with “snapping” to the original static values;
• Cue listen feature available for each EQ
fi
lter, to easily understand what frequencies a
band is processing.
•
DOPAMINE
, a model of another couple of ‘70s-‘90s ubiquitous equipments originally designed to en-
code and decode sound for noise reduction, but then was used to only encode signals for the sur-
prising e
ff
ect of “reviving” sounds with improved brilliance and clarity without overdoing it.
Notable features:
• Two di
ff
erent module cards available for both generic and vocal sound processing;
• Enhances the signal without adding arti
fi
cial harmonics as an exciter typically does.
•
EQ550
, modeled after a renowned American EQ created with custom op-amps, it has become fa-
mous thanks to its unique Proportional-Q design, meaning that the bandwidth of the
fi
lters be-
comes narrow when the gain of the
fi
lter increases.
