Product Detail
Designed to elevate the quality of digital sound recordings, these plug - ins bring back the warm tones of the legendary analog hardware passive equalizers favored by Motown engineers. They offer a simple, functional 'Vintage/Retro - Style' interface and consume low CPU, enabling lightning - fast processing.
### Retro Music Tone
The Retro Music - Tone is a 7 - band passive equalizer plug - in that emulates the hardware used only by Motown engineers. It features proportional Q, just like the original hardware. You can't adjust the Q bandwidth; small boost/cuts have a broad Q, and greater ones have a narrow Q. Adjust the gain of fixed frequencies from - 8dB to + 8dB to get your desired tonal color.
**Features**:
- 7 - band equalizer with Gain and Proportional Q.
- Fixed frequencies at 50 Hz, 130 Hz, 320 Hz, 800 Hz, 2 kHz, 5 kHz, and 12.5 kHz.
- Boost/Cut up to 8dB per band.
- Phase reverse switch.
- Vintage VU Meter.
- Full automation for all parameters.
- Easy - to - use vintage interface.
### Retro Film - Tone
Similar to the Retro Music - Tone, the Retro Film - Tone is a 7 - band passive equalizer with fixed frequencies and Proportional Q, emulating Motown - exclusive hardware. The overlapping frequencies allow you to use both plugins on the same track/bus, giving you a total of 14 bands.
**Features**:
- 7 - band equalizer with Gain and Proportional Q.
- Fixed frequencies at 80 Hz, 200 Hz, 500 Hz, 1.2 kHz, 3.2 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16 kHz.
- Boost/Cut up to 8dB per band.
- Phase reverse switch.
- Vintage VU Meter.
- Full automation for all parameters.
- Easy - to - use vintage interface.
Using these plug - ins is a breeze. First, install them on your audio editing software. For the Retro Music Tone or Retro Film - Tone, start by adjusting the gain of each fixed frequency according to your taste. You can boost or cut up to 8dB per band. If you want to reverse the phase, just flip the phase reverse switch. The Vintage VU Meter helps you keep an eye on the audio levels.
When using both plugins together, take advantage of the overlapping frequencies to get a total of 14 bands on the same track or bus. All parameters are fully automated, so you can set them up once and let the software do the work.
As for maintenance, keep your audio software and the plug - ins updated. Make sure your computer has enough resources since the plug - ins are designed for low CPU consumption, but a well - maintained system always helps. Avoid using them in extremely unstable software environments to prevent any glitches.
