They really did nail down the analog tone and vibe that those compressors impart.
And yeah- the second you demo VBC you'll want to buy it, they are blowing me away more and more each time I use them.
I have noticed that too much of the Neve can create problems in the low end, which is the hardest part for me to reel in given that I use Focal CMS-50's with 5" woofers. I'll run 2 different VCC models on the mix buss, usually Neve and 4k. Glad I'm not the only one here! They really have been game changers for me. Lately, I've been setting up sessions with the Brit N on all channels & busses (mix buss included), then running the mix into the Brit 4k later on. The heft and depth of the Brit N is worth it alone. I honestly cannot imagine mixing without it. Much like yourself and many others, I mostly mix ITB so VCC goes on everything around here.

Loading in other sounds, like a kick or a snare to trigger some hats, for pop songs is quite fun to mix in. I could live without it, but it just makes things easier.
#SLATE VCC BRIT 4K TRIAL#
I already know I'll love it and want it before the trial demo is even over. Speaking of compressors, I haven't tried out VBC yet. I love how transparent the compressor is. It's definitely great for getting things loud, but that compressor and the metering are the unsung heroes of FG-X. Thankfully, none of them have shown up recently. Lately, I've been setting up sessions with the Brit N on all channels & busses (mix buss included), then running the mix into the Brit 4k later on.įG-X is also pretty cool and helpful. (boy I really sound like a shill, don't I? ) I'm officially a fanboy.Ī little late, I rarely come here, but the Slate team has drastically cut mix times down. These guys and Kush Audio (and maybe Sound Toys) are really on the cutting edge of analog emulation/ sounding plugins, and they're really making ITB mixing a more viable option than it's ever been- I highly recommend them for anyone with an in the box home studio.
There's some sound clips on gearslutz which are pretty impressive- I'll definitely be getting it the day it comes out. They're also about to release the Virtual Buss Compressors- 3 compressors modeled after the SSL buss comp, REDD comp that CLA uses all the time, and a Fairchild- Manley Vari-Mu hybrid.
Just bought Trigger too, (haven't used it yet) and I'm really excited to have the option of blending in some great samples in my recorded studio drum tracks if they need them, I can think back to a couple sessions where either the floor tom or kick weren't quite cutting it in the mix and it would have been great to have it as an option, so that shouldn't be an issue anymore (although it's sort of a last resort thing for me- I prefer to get it right coming in). I'm by no means a masterer- but I got the FG-X mastering plugin for when I did have to deliver a master on my own, and it's AWESOME for getting the volume up to snuff without totally squashing the track. VCC (Virtual Console Collection) and VTM (Virtual Tape Machines) are mainstays in my mixes now and I can't imagine mixing without them- I have an entirely "in the box" setup at home and they give my mixes an analog feel and sound- really gluing everything together. I use Steven Slate Drums 4 Platinum on my V Drums kit at home and have gotten surprisingly realistic sounding tracks- I've been doing some work for composers with them and they've been really happy with the results. These haven't been talked about much here- I've been incredibly impressed with their whole product line and now own just about everything they make.
