Re-Mic and Reverb modes: two professional workflows

Re-Mic: transformed tracks

Replace the original sound with the Studio A environment: choose mics, distances and setup to get a new character, perfect for giving three-dimensionality to drums, guitars or vocals recorded "in the box."

Reverb: space and depth in parallel mixes

Applies just the acoustic environment of the room to give naturalness to recordings. Ideal on effects buses or for parallel treatments of dry instruments.

Analog outboard and Sound City console.

Plug-in includes historic custom console with three-band EQ and "inline" compression, plus modelled hardware units such as 1176 limiter and the famous Dolby A "secret weapon" treatment to give presence and openness to the mix.
