It sometimes seems like everyone recording to digital media is looking for ways to emulate the kind of warmth we usually associate with high end analog audio gear from top manufacturers like Ampex, Studer and MCI. McDSP’s Analog Channel LE should be ready to ship in about 30 days, so you might want to start saving all your loose change, because this plug-in is as affordable as it is powerful.
The Analog Channel can emulate any or all of the components of high end analog gear, including analog tape recorders, analog tape and analog channel amplifiers. By meticulously recreating the frequency responses and compression curves from Studer, Otari, MCI, Ampex, Sony, and TASCAM, nearly any “reproducer” ever made is only a menu selection away.
