Delivering timeless analog tone, warmth, and depth for modern productions.

BAE-1073

The BAE-1073 is based on a legendary three-band hardware EQ that has become a studio staple for its rich and warm sound. It features a high-pass filter before the EQ, making the unit even more versatile and precise, in other words, a must-have for any tracking or mixing session.

The BAE-1073 is famous for its warm, musical sound. It’s often used on vocals and drums, but it does its magic on any source signal. It’s a very versatile EQ, and that’s exactly why it’s so popular. It includes three different EQ modes: high pass, low pass, and band pass. Each mode has its unique sound. The high pass mode is great for removing unwanted frequencies, rumble, or spill. The low pass mode is perfect for adding weight to a track or taming harsh frequencies. The band pass mode is somewhere in between, and it’s great for shaping the overall sound of a track.
 
Antelope Audio's BAE-1073 reigns superior when it comes to modeling the original EQ. Meticulously measuring and closely studying the unit’s behavior allowed us to get as close as possible to the original sound of the BAE. The result is an EQ that is capable of adding the grit and character of the original without overtly coloring the sound. The BAE-1073 is perfect for those after the classic British EQ sound without sacrificing any sonic clarity.

Features

• Adds true 1970s analog mojo to your production
• Features a 3-band EQ pre-set to high pass, band pass, and low pass
• The EQ for drums and vocals but feed it whatever and it’ll provide
• HPF before the bands for additional control

MEMORY CAT BRIGADE

The Memory Cat is a bucket-brigade delay combining the best about tape & analog units with their smooth high-end and organic overall sound. It was modeled after one of the most demanded analog delays ever built.

Tape & Analog delays have been favored by engineers and producers for decades for their warmer and more natural sound compared to digital delays. Both types tend to roll off the low and high frequencies, which makes them sit better in the mix. That gives the musical and organic feel that many of us are chasing. Based on the 1980s classic Deluxe Memory Man, Antelope Audio's own Memory Cat Brigade unit is one of the most faithful software recreations of this music industry staple.
 
As we always do, we measured and recreated every single component of the original hardware’s circuit following its original schematic. Of course, we walked the extra mile and in addition to the accurate modeling of the behavior of all original parameters, we added a few bonuses. Cat Memory Brigade is capable of achieving up to 1100 mS delay time and features a Filter knob for even darker echoes.

Features

• Combining the best sound qualities of analog and tape delays
• Produces dark and lush tape-like delays that will sit in any mix
• Adds more depth to your tracks with a vibrant pitch-shifting vibrato
• Achieves a rich and spacious Chorus effect
• Delay time between 550-1100 mS
• Overload Indicator

GYRATEC IX

Gyratec IX is a vintage dual tube mic preamp that will add flawless analog amplification to any sound source. Use it while tracking or during mixes – now compatible with any DAW or interface. 

Working your way around Gyratec IX is no rocket science thanks to its straightforward and user-friendly layout. This variable-gain input tube with an SRPP output stage features a comprehensible set of controls including input and output level switches allowing you to balance both the input and output signals. If you want no harmonic saturation, keep the gain and minimum, if you like to add tube color go for more gain and reduce the output level.

The preamp also features a high pass filter and a phase reverse switch. Easy to master and sounding massive, Gyratec IX is not just only the synonym for flawless analog amplification but an extremely versatile plugin that you need among your studio tools. 

Features

• Massive analog-style amplification 
• Extremely versatile and applicable to any sound source 
• Use it when recording or during mixing 
• Straight-forward and comprehensive controls 
• High Pass Filter 
• Phase Invert Switch

COMP-4K-BUS

COMP-4K-BUS is the gold standard of mix bus compression. Originally featured on the master bus of an iconic series of 80s British consoles, this unit is capable of bringing together instruments and performances from various sources into one larger-than-life, cohesive whole. 

COMP-4K-BUS belongs on the Master track. Start mixing right into it or use it after everything else in the mix is ‘said and done’. In both cases, this 80s-inspired plugin will glue it together and turn it into a balanced, homogeneous production with the much-desired vintage punch. 

Music has evolved over the past decades and so have the tools we use to shape it. Sub-low frequencies often play a vital part in modern music and present the danger of triggering the bus compressor, which often results in an over-compressed mix. To prevent that and to meet the needs of modern producers and engineers we have included a sweepable SideChain Filter. 

Other than mix bus applications this compressor has also proven itself as a powerful parallel processor. To accommodate the so-called New York-style compression the COMP-4K-BUS is equipped with a “Mix” knob that can determine the blend between the compressed and unprocessed signal, which expands its versatility beyond the mix bus. 

Features

• The gold standard of mix glue compression 
• Faithfully recreated from the early 80s mixing consoles 
• Featuring the classic Auto Fade feature 
• Adapted to the modern age with few extra controls 

REEL-TO-REEL

Inspired by the best analog hardware, Reel-To-Real is a tape saturation plugin that will add true vintage color and warmth to your modern-day production. 

The sound of Reel-To-Reel combines the best tape formulas, the best tape heads, and the finest electronic components. Experiment with bias settings, tape hiss amounts, switch between four tape types, and adjust wow & flutter for a real analog flavor. The combinations between all these parameters are practically endless and mastering them will allow you to achieve the warmth and color you crave in the exact amounts. Use Reel-To-Reel not only during post-production but also when tracking to monitor your session through the true sound of your favorite tape machines. 

Features
