Full Description

4020 Retro EQ

4020 Retro EQ gives you four-band EQ and a comprehensive filter set. High and low-frequency bands are shelving EQs with two additional parametric EQs for high mid and low mid bands, each band operates on a unique gain dependent slope/Q system to bring you a smooth sound. The featured HPF and LPF filters use a one-of-a-kind split-octave design giving you a 12dB/Oct slope near the selected frequency and a maximum slope of 24 dB/Oct. Though deep and complex, the interface is calmingly simple and will be something you're able to get your head around without any issues. You'll be gifted with extra clarity in your mixes without the hassle that comes with physical units and plug-ins that can sometimes have complicated design and convoluted controls that takes you multiple projects and hours of use to get a hang of. This will appeal to novices who might prefer a simple layout and professionals who are often on a deadline and need to work fast.

4030 Retro Compressor

4030 is as simple and easy to understand as compressors can get. Threshold, ratio, attack, release, gain and mix controls sit proudly on a clean interface that you'll be used to in no time. Any novice will appreciate the fresh aesthetic whereas professionals will enjoy the no mess, no fuss but sophisticated and high-quality nature that comes with this unique characterful compressor. The one-of-a-kind mix control dial not usually found on conventional compressors allows you to effectively balance wet and dry signals, so you can create some interesting sonic effects that remain natural and free of any phase issues. Automatic adjustment of parameters behind the scenes allows a smooth experience that remains controlled, which negates the need for worry and constant tweaking throughout the mix process. Modern features with vintage tone.

4040 Retro Limiter

McDSP 4040 Retro Limiter is a vintage limiter plug-in that combines look-ahead functionality with McDSP's analogue saturation modelling to bring you a retro-charactered limiting action with up to 36dB of signal gain. The 4040 is perfect for peak limiting on individual instruments with a layout that couldn't be simpler, so you don't have to spend all day tweaking settings and messing with control interfaces, no mess no fuss. High transient material will always benefit from the simple peak control that this ultra-low latency limiter makes easier than ever to perform. With simple metering and a very easy-to-use interface with only two dials present, you'll be at one with 4040 Retro Limiter in no time at all and it will become indispensable for reigning in your high peak instruments.
