Virtual Buss Compressors (VBC) is a powerful suite of three unique processors, meticulously modeled after the most sought-after hardware mix buss compressors.
Beyond Analog Emulation: Capturing the Essence of Classic Gear
Many plugin compressors claim to be "analog-modeled," but often lack the true sonic character of their hardware counterparts. VBC breaks the mold by meticulously recreating not just the compression curves and timing of these legendary units, but also the crucial non-linear artifacts that breathe life into their sound. These include dynamic harmonic distortion, phase shifts, saturation, and more.
The VBC Trinity: Unveiling Three Iconic Compressors
FG-RED: Punch and Clarity Redefined
Inspired by the revered "RED-faced" compressor favored by mix legend Chris Lord Alge, FG-RED delivers a unique combination of punchy transients and smooth compression. The secret weapon? A dedicated "DRIVE" knob that harnesses the output transformer's non-linear magic, adding power and articulation without sacrificing detail.
FG-GREY: The Glue That Binds
FG-GREY meticulously captures the essence of the classic British "4000 series console compressor," renowned for its ability to tighten and gel mixes. We've enhanced its sonic fidelity with a virtual transformer stage, preserving clarity in the mids and low-end, even under heavy compression.
FG-MU: The Tube Magic Formula
FG-MU brings the coveted warmth and character of iconic tube buss compressors like the Fairchild 670 and Manley Vari Mu to your fingertips. Its meticulously modeled tube circuitry imparts a beautiful open sound, taming harshness while enriching the mids and lows. Even with minimal compression, FG-MU adds a touch of analog magic to your mixes.
Hear the Difference: The Power of Nonlinearity
Extensive research and collaboration with top audio professionals revealed a truth: many plugin compressors lacked the soul of their hardware counterparts. VBC bridges this gap by faithfully reproducing the complex non-linear artifacts that define classic analog compression. The result? A depth, life, and analog vibe previously unheard in plugin form.
Elevate your mixes with the rich character and sonic authenticity of Virtual Buss Compressors. Experience the magic of legendary hardware, meticulously captured for the modern producer.
