It’s a snap to audition different console emulations across multiple tracks in order to select the right one for your mix, as well as bypassing all group members to A/B as well.Īn iLok dongle is a small USB key used to protect your licenses. VCC/VTM (which I loved) has been superceded by Clockwise HEAT, UAD API Vision/VTM. Meanwhile, I've moved onto UAD Neve 1073, Fairchild, API Vision and the 1176 plugs. I think I've ranted enough about (he')slate and waiting for VCC and AAX-DSP.


In PT11HDX, I use VTM (AAX-Native) and VBC (AAX-Native). To make Virtual Console Collection easier to use, up to eight separate control groups can be created in your mixing session, allowing you to manipulate multiple channels from any module assigned to the same group. I love non-linear plugs, and gravitated to Slate. These emulations are sonically indistinguishable from the original desks they model, so your mixes will come together quicker, feel more even and exciting, and require less work than ever before. Virtual Console Collection contains emulations of six classic inline recording consoles, including the most sought-after models from Britain and the US. Virtual Channel is applied on individual mixing channels in your DAW, and Virtual Mixbuss is intended to be placed on the first insert of the master fader. To accurately emulate all of this complexity, the Virtual Console Collection consists of two separate plugins – the Virtual Channel and Virtual Mixbuss – both of which allow the user to choose from one of six analog console emulations. The behavior of an analog console is immensely complex, because the individual channels contribute different things sonically than the summing busses do, and the number of individual channels in use matters to the overall sound of the desk.
