It wasn’t long before I was using it on every track in every session. This model has softened highs and makes the bottom end is a little tubbier. It really seemed to live up to the hype and it really seemed to make my mixes better. I figured if it was anything close to the hype, it would be well worth it. It was about $60 including an iLok 2, which is required to run either version of VCC. My first experience with VCC was when Slate released the new RC-Tube console option as a separate plugin. Grouped plugins will have all the controls linked which makes it really easy to try out different algorithms. You can have up to 8 groups or have channels independent. VCC Mix Bus Pluginīoth plugins have a group option which opens up an advanced settings panel for grouped settings. The Mix bus plugin has stereo VU meters, console selection and drive control. The interface is really simple and easy to understand right away.įor the channel there is a VU meter at the top, console selection knob, an input trim to tweak + or – 6dB and a drive control which gives you control over the non-linear saturation with + or – 6dB. It’s not a huge dramatic change but it makes a noticeable difference. If you push them hard, the console reacts differently, this completely unlike what you’re used to mixing digitally. RC-Tube, a hybrid of two vintage RCA Tube broadcast consoles.Įach console algorithm was made to match the frequency response and overload reaction of the original console. Ψ, a Trident 80B shown as just a symbol on the plugin The Mix bus includes some crosstalk in the algorithm. The Channel plugin models the inputs of the console, the Mix Bus plugin is the summing and main out of the console. You can also use the mix bus plugin on submixes if you prefer. Generally you stick the Mix bus on the master fader and a channel on every track of your project. The Virtual Console Collection is a pair of plugins – the channel and the mix bus. Impossible in real life, but accomplished in a minute with VCC. Say you wanted your guitars mixed on an SSL, drums on a vintage Neve, bass on a vintage RCA tube console, everything else through a Trident console and finally all those tracks summed through an API. Not only that, but you get a choice of several consoles that you can use in any combination. VCC is a plugin that claims to make your mixes sound more analog and to make your DAW react exactly like an analog console. There was SO MUCH HYPE about this product that I was completely put off by the idea of it and tried to ignore it for a while. Steven Slate’s Virtual Console Collection is one of those so called game changing plugins. Every new plugin is announced as a total game changer.
