Two vintage analog preamps, now available in your DAW
The Slate Digital VIRTUAL PREAMP COLLECTION brings the authentic tone of two of the audio industry’s most classic microphone preamplifiers to your digital audio workstation. Each preamp uses state-of-the-art analog modeling technology to recreate every aspect of the preamp circuit from mild coloration to full on saturation and distortion. The VIRTUAL PREAMP COLLECTION or “VPC” was originally designed to be used with the Virtual Microphone System’s VMS ONE Ultra Linear Microphone Preamp. In fact, can be used with any clean sounding preamp to add extra vibe. Also, VPC can add real analog preamp tone to any track or mix, and even create rich-sounding distortion effects when pushed hard.
FG-73
The FG-73 preamp module is modeled after one of the most famous British discrete solid state preamps in the audio industry. To clarify, preamps that have been used on countless recordings. It has a bold, present, and warm sound that sounds great on any audio source and even full mixes.
FG-76
This FG76 preamp module is modeled after a classic vintage tube preamp that has been used on many classic recordings. It has a thick, warm, and colorful tone that can make tracks and mixes sound more ‘alive’. The bottom end saturates in a very unique and musical way. This makes it a great module for bass guitar and kick drum tracks.
VIRTUAL DRIVE
Both modules feature a “virtual drive” knob. This knob simulates the action of increasing the amplifier input gain. At the same time, automatically decreasing an internal output trim. Because of this, it can set the gain staging of the preamp easily. For most color and tone effects, the left part of the knob should be used. For more saturation and full on distortion, the virtual drive can be pushed to the right side or even fully cranked.
In conclusion…
Using the Virtual Preamp Collection along with the other Slate Digital analog modeled tools can ensure that your mixes come to life with real analog vibe, color, and tone. VPC is available in the Slate Digital EVERYTHING BUNDLES, or it can be purchased by itself for use in the Virtual Mix Rack.
