SSL MPC Spectral Compressor and X-Echo Bundle - Electronic Delivery

Product Description

The SSL MPC Spectral Compressor and X-Echo Bundle includes the compressor's clever dynamics processor and 18 spectral bands of dynamic range to dial in the tone of your mix while the X-Echo gives you the warm tone of vintage tape echo with a plethora of features.

MPC SPECTRAL COMPRESSOR

The Spectral Compressor is a clever dynamics processor that was originally developed for highly demanding film and post-production. It is derived from Harrison’s iconic enterprise class MPC consoles and provides unparalleled accuracy when mastering your mix.

It offers 18 spectral bands of dynamic range control allowing you to sculpt the sound of each band individually or use the global controls to adjust the overall tone of your mix.

VINTAGE TAPE DELAY, ADVANCED SSL WORKFLOW

X-Echo is your vibe machine, adding the gloriously warm sound of vintage tape to your recordings, sessions and even jams. Soft compression, hiss and the well-known gradual degradation of tape have all been meticulously modelled and combined with SSL's renowned console-style saturation and LF/HF EQ.

In addition to advanced waveform visualization, built-in 'DE-ESSER' and delay 'WIDTH' control, X-Echo features a brand-new SSL reverb design: Capable of subtle space to the richest of plates, all the way to a reverb tail which can fill a canyon, all via the single-knob 'DIFFUSION' control.

Able to effortlessly deliver traditional tape delay effects like swirling echoes and classic slap back, X-Echo is also capable of more contemporary creative delays commonly found in electronic music, and of course can be driven to self-oscillation via 'FEEDBACK' or add creative swells via 'FREEZE' and 'KILL'.
