EChannel

Lightweight Modular Channel Strip

EChannel is a versatile and lightweight channel strip plug-in that includes a routable Gate, Parametric EQ, and Compressor. Its modular design allows for flexible signal processing routing, while its graphical displays enable precise frequency adjustments. With a powerful suite of controls, this plugin offers an extensive range of options to generate the exact tone and frequency characteristics you desire.

Features

Intuitive and easy-to-learn
Over 100 presets tailored for various instruments and use cases
FlexiPath™ Routing allows processors to be ordered based on the desired workflow.
Gate module removes signals below the designated threshold; great for multi-miked drum kits or fret noise.
Compressor alters the dynamics of your input signal, with optional soft saturation and de-esser.
Use the side chain to trigger gain reduction for competing instruments.
5-Band Parametric EQ allows for precise frequency manipulation throughout the entire audio spectrum.
Output Transformer emulation adds a subtle yet distinct effect on signals with lots of low-frequency content or can be driven into saturation for analog warmth.
