Gain Complete Control of Analog Gain Staging and Tape Machines!

Analog Channel emulates the sounds of high-end analog tape machines, analog tape, and analog channel amplifiers.



You gain complete control of analog gain staging (AC101), and analog tape and tape machines (AC202).

AC101 - Pure digital tracks can suffer from harsh digital clipping. AC101 acts as a 'digital pre-amp' allowing even excessive amounts of gain without digital distortion. A drive control determines where the audio 'sits' in the saturation/compression region, and even the attack and release times of the distortion character are adjustable. And AC101 is the most efficient McDSP plug-In ever - up to 24 mono channels or 16 stereo channels on a single MIX DSP chip. Place it across the entire mix to create a custom analog console.

AC202- Standard tape machine parameters such as bias, playback speed, and IEC1/2 equalization are provided. Control well beyond the limits of the 'reel-world' devices includes adjustable low frequency roll off and head bump - independent of playback speed. You can select from several playback head types, and even control the rate at which tape saturation is dis-engaged. Modern and vintage tape formulations are available. And instead of frequency sweeps and test tones, the playback head and tape saturation responses are displayed in realtime - updated with every control change.

Recommended Accessories

Sweetwater ALWAYS exceeds my expectation in sales, customer service and knowledge on the gear being sold to me. Sweetwater is my #1 choice to buy equipment from the first time I ordered. I find of great value the fact that I don't feel like one more customer, rather THE customer.

Sweetwater Advice

Mark Thompson
Do you wax nostalgic for the days when tape ruled the earth? Do you find yourself looking for a way to get the tone and color that came from your favorite old recordings but can't afford someone to bias your deck or find tape? Do you wish for analog tone with digital quality that's easy to use? Then Analog Channel is your Holy Grail! Not just for the big studios this baby runs RTAS on LE systems as well. I run it with an Mbox!

Music Background:
The Analog Channel plug in by McDSP is possibly the best plug in I've ever used (and I've used ALOT). If you are searching for the gain structure (and analog sound) you used to have in the a... read more [+]nalog realm - then this is THE plug in to own. Huge head room, clarity, presence and depth are here in spades. No wonder Shania Twain and Faith Hill's producers use this plug in on all their hits. A HUGE warm analog sound is possible for us digital folks. If this is the sound you're after buy it!! A+++++++ close [-]
