McDSP Classic Pack Software Native Version

The Native version of Classic Pack Software delivers 4 of McDSP's world-renowned emulations of vintage equalizers, compressors, tape machines and channel amplifiers bundled together. This Classic Pack Native version is for Pro Tools users, and includes McDSP's Analog Channel, CompressorBank, FilterBank, and MC2000. It also includes a pre-programmed McDSP green iLok.

Analog Channel
Analog Channel emulates the sounds of high-end analog tape machines, tape, and channel amplifiers, through it's two plug-ins, AC1 (emulates analog channel amplifier circuits) and AC2 (emulates analog tape machines).

The AC1 configuration acts as a digital pre-amp allowing even excessive amounts of gain without digital distortion. A drive control determines where the audio "sits" in the saturation/compression region, and even the attack and release times of the distortion character are adjustable.

The AC2 configuration emulates analog tape machines. In addtiion to standard tape machine parameters such as bias, playback speed, and IEC1/2 equalization, AC2 offers controls well beyond the limits of reel-world devices, including adjustable low-frequency roll off and head bump ” independent of playback speed. The user can select from several playback head types, tape formulations, and even control the tape saturation recovery time.

CompressorBank
CompressorBank is a high-end compressor plug-in designed to emulate the sounds of vintage and modern compressors, while delivering complete control of dynamic compression. It includes four plug-ins: CB1 for basic compression, CB2 for compression with pre-filtering, CB3 for compression for pre-filtering ad static/dynamic EQ, and CB4 for emulations of six of world's most popular compressors.

In addition to the standard threshold and ratio controls, the actual shape and response of the compression curve can be adjusted with the Knee and BITE controls. Flexible compression control is complimented with pre-filtering and post-compression EQ.

FilterBank
FiterBank is a high-end equalizer plug-in designed to emulate the sounds of vintage and modern equalizers and filters. With its Peak, Slope Dip, controls and variable Q modes FilterBank can emulate any EQ, or be used to create a distinct custom EQ. It includes ten plug-ins:
¢E2 / E4 / E6 ” parametric, high and low shelving EQ, high and low pass filters, in 2, 4, and 6 band configurations
¢P2 / P4 / P6 ” parametric EQ with variable Q modes in 2, 4, and 6 band configurations
¢F1 / F2 / F3 ” steep high and low pass filtering with resonant Q control
¢B1 ” super notch filtering

MC2000
The MC2000 is a high-end multiband compressor plug-in designed to emulate the sounds of vintage and modern compressors. The three plug-ins (MC2 for 2-band compression, MC3 for 3-band compression, and MC4 for 4-band compression) give you complete control of multi-band dynamic compression. Common controls such as output (make-up gain), threshold, compression (ratio), attack, and release are provided. Non-standard Knee and BITE controls allow unique articulation of compression characteristics. Multiple peak detection circuit types provide flexibility only previously achieved by owning several compression units. Steep 24dB/Oct crossover filters minimize signal leakage into adjacent compression bands.
