The AE011 channel strip package includes 5 models that employ VCM (virtual circuitry modeling) technology to recreate the sound and characteristics of several classic compression and EQ units from the 70's. Not only do these models faithfully capture the unique saturation of analog circuitry — in part thanks to precise modeling of the original FET gain reduction, Tube/Transformer buffer amplifier, VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) and RMS detector circuits — but they have also been fine-tuned by leading engineers and feature carefully selected parameters in a simple interface that makes it easier than ever to create the ideal sound.
These models recreate the fast response, frequency characteristics, and tube-amp saturation
Delivering classic-style compression with all the punch and fatness you'd expect from a fine piece of studio-grade analog gear
Not limited to processing drums and bass, these compressors are also an excellent choice for vocals and master stereo mix compression
The 276 is a dual mono unit, while the 276S operates in stereo
The 260 is a dual mono unit, while the 260S operates in stereo
Featuring faithful modeling of the solid-state voltage-controlled amplifier and RMS detection circuitry of the late 70's
These ADD-ON EFFECTS bring back the sound of classic comp/limiters used primarily for live sound reinforcement applications
They offer three selectable compression knee types hard, medium, and soft
The 601 equalizer offers two equalizer types Clean and Drive
The 601 features a familiar knob-style interface as well as graphical editing capability on both the console and PC displays
