    The Century tube is among my favorite channel strip. I use it often in vocals and bass. Very easy to understand. Thanks for this tutorial, it gave me the idea to "hit the red" of the VU meter more often.

    Doesn't get enough love. Glad to see UA showcasing it more. It's my most used plugin when tracking.

    long shot: can you guys make an update to make it black... not a big deal, just a vibe.
    at night when i track sometimes it's just too bright, plug-in itself is really great.
    thanks.

    i got this one for free. it sounds amazing honestly. I used it with my old Rode K2, Unison, to make that mic sound viable(which is hard to do) and it did an incredible job of it. i just upgraded and got my Telefunken TF51 in and im running it through a 737 into my twin but im playing around with different combinations for BG vocs and other approaches. this is 100% getting used on my album for something along with the Neve preamp.

    Thanks for the great video tutorial! If your guitar or bass amp is at the top of the signal chain, in the Unison Preamp section of the track, how would the Preamp work here, if inserted AFTER the amp sim that came first in the chain? Thanks!

      It becomes a "color option" for driving the post amp signal.

    I wonder if you can help me are Channel Strips only meant for non electronic music, as in do they have any use in making Electronic Music? As I only see channel strips getting used with live instruments ect.

    • @UniversalAudio
      @UniversalAudio  Před 8 měsíci +2

      They are used for ANY source. The benefit of channelstrips is that the EQ and DYN are in the same plugin GUI.

  • @josephpeccerillo1640
    @josephpeccerillo1640 Před 7 měsíci +1

    I have this plugin. It sounds great. My only suggestion is to make a way to change the signal path so the compressor is pre-eq. That would be more logical in my opinion as 99% of the time I compress pre-eq as I’m sure most do.

    • @josephpeccerillo1640
      @josephpeccerillo1640 Před 5 měsíci +2

      @@YungBearPH sorry but you’re absolutely incorrect in your assumption. I was a professional engineer and producer for almost 20 years of my life and worked with some of the best producers and engineers in the world. The standard is compression before eq. All professional consoles like Neves, APIs, Tridents, Neotechs, SSLs, etc are set up that way as the default for a reason. They all have the option to put the compressor after the eq if you wish, as that configuration does have its uses, but the more common configuration is compress first then eq so that any eq changes you make don’t effect how hard you hit the compressor. If you want control over the frequencies that trigger the compressor you either use a multibamd compressor or you use the compressors sidechain.

    • @Hexspa
      @Hexspa Před 4 měsíci

      This is correct. Plus the EQ has more of an audible effect after the compressor. If you EQ before the compressorr, the comp fights your changes. @@josephpeccerillo1640

      What's your point? All channel strips are essentially the same if you boil it down. But they differ in sound and function a bit. Pick one that works for you.
