Audio Plugin Testing
Hi, and welcome to something I hope is helpful to you — some simple testing of audio plugins which you can use for comparing, or just to find out more about each one. Plus some things to help with your recording and mixing!
Cool for your music

There are times we want a vocal to sound more “airy”. Usually we reach for an EQ or multi-band compressor. But the “Whispering Delay” method is more selective and offers greater control in how much “airiness” we add and where it occurs in relation to the signal.
It’s aggressive and gentle at the same time. No, I mean it. The 2-buss compressor for real men. And women. So many interesting things you can tweak on this.
Lindell doesn’t actually produce a hardware version of this, but they developed the plugin (along with LSR). So here you have it, Plugin Alliance Lindell SCR, based on the API 2500.
If you are looking for a cleaner sound coming out of an API 2500, Wave’s take is a bit kinder and gentler than some other emulations.
The Dist Tube Culture is Arturia’s take on Thermionic’s Culture Vulture. What they have added within the plugin is useful and creative, to say the least.
If you have never tried SoundToys Decapitator, there’s no time like the present!
Fasten your seatbelt. Or at least be careful. The UAD Thermionic Culture Vulture plugin can make some serious noise.
