The Slate Digital VIRTUAL MIX RACK continues the Slate Digital tradition of providing the absolute most authentically modeled analog sound in a digital audio plugin.
The Slate Digital VMR includes four world class mix modules, including two classic equalizers and two versatile mix compressors, with more modules to be developed.
The Slate Digital VMR operates as a Virtual 500 series rack with hot-swappable modules, putting your whole processing chain in ONE WINDOW. This allows you customize your own channel strip, with signal flow following the modules, in any order you choose. Mix and match filters from different EQs. Chain an EQ before or after your compressor. Moving modules around is easy, fast, and creates no break in audio playback. Audition signal chains faster, easier, and in real time with the Slate VMR.

The FG-N is a digital recreation of one of the most classic discrete Class A British equalizers from the 70’s. All aspects of the circuit are modeled, including the rich harmonics and saturations that naturally occur when the equalizer is in use. The original model only contained one mid band, so we thought it would be nice to double it so that it has two mid bands. This equalizer is lush, fat, and bold. It sounds great on everything from drums to vocals, and can even add the perfect saturation to synth and electronic tracks
The FG-S is a digital recreation of one of the most famous British console equalizers from the 80’s. This equalizer also has rich harmonics and interactive mid bands with a fat musical tone. This is the ultimate workhorse mix eq that can be used on any track. It is great for surgical cutting strokes, or wide bell and shelf strokes for making drums and guitars punch out of the speakers.
The FG-116 is the most precise digital replication of the classic American FET limiter. No expense was spared to capture every nuance of this classic sounding compressor/limiter. From its trademark timing characteristics to the extremely musical sound of its transformer, the FG-116 will give engineers the musical and fat tone that has made the hardware so famous. The FG-116 sounds great on everything like lead vocals, drums, and bass guitars.
The FG-401 started as a recreation of the classic british console channel compressor, but morphed into quite a lot more. First, we gave it variable attack and release with increased range which added more tonal options. But then, we added an optimal transformer inout, and not just any transformer, the famous transformer from the British Class A Console! This adds a beautiful warmth and sheen to the compressor. Last, we added an entirely unique second circuit path that provides and additional smooth and rich tone. The FG-401 is perhaps the most versatile mix compressor in the world that can sound good on any source you feed into it!
Unlike so many ‘analog modeled’ equalizer plugins and compressors that simply recreate analog equalization and compression curves, the VMR models every nuance of the circuit paths and recreates all of the essential harmonics, saturations, phase, and interactivity that give the units their trademark tone.
The Slate Digital VMR plugin is also modular, and new processors will be added in the future which will further enhance its powerful functionality
When you compare before and after , please keep both signals at the same volume level .
The added workflow simplicity is a great feature and I love how natural the sound is! Keep up the great work SLATE digital!
My go to plugin for absolutely EVERYTHING! Just unbelievable!
I hope This company keeps this up and doesn't get greedy. No More Waves For Me.......
I've been using these plugins since the day they came out and they're now the only plugins I use! The Waves VEQ's and CLA76's can't hold a candle to the sound of the VMR modules! I don't know if they sound more like the vintage units (because I've never used the real hardware)… but VMR sounds better than Waves! It adds so much character and life to my mixes! Even my wife (who is not an audio person at all) has noticed that my mixes sound more "like something you'd hear on the radio". Keep the updates coming!
So sick! I love everything that they make! Slate Digital is the future of audio engineering! Funny too, that now Waves has hopped on the subscriptions because of these guys haha! But there's no way I'd make the switch back, to be honest - Slate is just too great! :)
Slate, you are great !
Great video and this stuff sounds great. It would be helpful if you would show the 'After' sound again after you show the 'Before' sound so we don't have to rewind the video to hear the difference a 2nd time.
Instabuy! Congratz for the quality and praticity.
Sounds unreal!!
Thanks Steven for helping out us little guys!
Nice going, people. I'm buying this first thing tomorrow :)
I recently got the virtual rack and Holy Grail of JESUS!!! what have i been missing out on?? no joke, this sounds wildly good and so much can be achieved with just this this plugin regardless of genre. Im just super impressed just TAKE MY MONEY already lmao 😂😂
I love your Explaination
Yes-sir, Slate!
one of the main points for me lately is the low latency and low CPU usage, no matter how many units i pack into it.
Finally! Yay!
bought it! =) <3
Nice!!!
Slate Digital makes fantastic plugins. If you are comparing them against Ozone, T-Racks, Waves, Slate Digital is on par in sound quality and in many cases exceeds. It's a competitive market and I work in a studio that uses a wide range of software for mixdown, mastering and processing and I was really blown away by how great this bundle sounds.
