There is a reason why many of the greatest hits continue to be mixed on analog consoles: just like tape machines, the major large-format analog consoles have a sound and vibe that has been impossible to achieve in the world of computer recording... until now. The Virtual Console Collection allows your DAW to acquire the personality of a real analog mixing desk, enhancing imaging and depth and making instruments sit better in the frequency spectrum. Mixing becomes easier and more musical, and you can even push the DAW faders to find the "sweet spot" of each mixer.

LARGE-FORMAT AUTHENTICITY

The behavior of an analog console is immensely complex, because individual channels contribute sonically different elements than summing buses, and the number of individual channels in use is important to the overall sound of the desk. To accurately emulate all this complexity, Virtual Console Collection consists of two separate plugins, Virtual Channel and Virtual Mixbuss, which allow the user to choose from one of six analog console emulations. Virtual Channel is applied to individual mix channels in your DAW, and Virtual Mixbuss is designed to be placed in the first insert of the master fader.

Choose the best console for your mix

Virtual Console Collection contains emulations of six classic in-line recording consoles, including the most sought-after models from Great Britain and the USA. These emulations are sonically indistinguishable from the original desks they model, so your mixes will come together faster, feel more cohesive and exciting, and require less work than ever.

EASIER LISTENING

To make Virtual Console Collection easier to use, up to eight separate control groups can be created in your mix session, allowing you to manipulate multiple channels from any module assigned to the same group. It is very easy to listen to different console emulations on multiple tracks to select the right one for your mix, as well as switch all group members to A/B.
