UAD Helios Type 69
It softens the highs and lows without you doing anything. (Oh golly gee, “analog”-sound.)
UAD Harrison 32C EQ
Colorless, but look at that 1 db bass bump. I suspect the preamps in the Harrison have/had some bass attenuation, and this complements it.
UAD Fairchild 670
The Fairchild 670 adds a touch of harmonics. Mojo. Until the gain reduction kicks in…
UAD elysia mpressor
Elysia calls the Mpressor a “creative” compressor. Does that mean it is creative in design, or it will do creative things? Or perhaps creative in marketing?
UAD elysia Alpha Mastering Version
It doesn’t get any cleaner than this, or any flatter of a frequency response. The hardware version costs over $10k, of which $1.75 must have been devoted to the interface.
UAD Empirical Labs Fatso
This is one cool dude. If you are really looking to add an analog vibe, you can’t do much better than this. Everything about it is too much fun to work with!
UAD Empirical Labs Distressor
If you are like me, you believe that producing music should be fun. If you don’t believe that, then why are you looking at the web right now — get back to work! This is one of those fun kind of plugins.
