New Fangled Audio – Invigorate
Newfangled Audio has released Invigorate, a bus compressor like no other. Invigorate can smoothly morph from compression through limiting to overdrive, making it fast and easy to mix in just the right amount of character and make your mixes, busses, and tracks sound HUGE.
The Invigorate user interface features a unique radar display and intelligent gain compensation engine that make it easy to hear and see exactly what you’re doing. Three-tone controls—Sensitivity, Input Exciter, and Output Tone—give you unprecedented control over the tone of your compressed signal. Invigorate also includes over 200 presets, including some developed by renowned artists, curated for a variety of audio sources, whole mixes, and mastering.
Invigorate is available from Eventide Audio with an introductory sale price of $49 ($99 MSRP).
Crossgrade discounts are available for owners of other Newfangled Audio products.
Kush Audio – Get High…But With Tube Saturation
LG Drive is an elegantly simple device and it’s new.
It’s a 2-Stage Tube Saturation colorbox whose thick, creamy distortions are pulled straight from the AR-1 variable-mµ compressor. When those distortions are coupled with a simple but powerful set of filters, then blended with the unprocessed signal, the result is a deceptively powerful tone-shaping tool that rivals (and often surpasses) eq.
Plus it’s from Kush Audio – a constant winner in the YouTube Thumbnail wars! Comedy aside, Kush is synonymous with quality so it’s really worth a look. And if you’re looking for the other kush, you may be disappointed but perhaps then pleasantly surprised? In any case, do dealers even do Black Friday deals?
Beat Scholar – The Most Interesting Drum Sequencer We’ve Seen This Year
We love this plugin from Beat Scholar. It looks like nothing we’ve seen and despite the overwhelming GUI, it’s actually dead easy to use.
It’s particularly suitable for musicians looking for an awesome drum sequencer accompanist (808 anyone!?) and gives you so many options to program, easily, simple but incredibly complex things.
Question: What do you get if Roland and Dominoes Pizza, marry and produce a baby?
Answer: Modalics ‘Beat Scholar’.
