SKnote has announced the release of Q796, the first in its new series of plug-ins modeled on classic hardware devices.
It is a stereo device with stereo sidechain, built for mastering but great on single instruments, according to SKnote.
A look-ahead function (up to 10ms) and full graphics have been added to the analog emulation.
Q796Features:
o Sidechain.
o Negative ratio.
o Continuous Peak-RMS set.
o Gain reduction limit (great for invisible squashing).
o Distortion (static and dynamic; starts over the threshold and increases with gain).
o Long time integration (an additional very slow time constant).
The “analog” interface, modeled on the hardware, is integrated in a “digital” frame, for a better control. Three separate graphs show in realtime:
Pricing
Q796 is available for Windows as a VST effect plug-in priced at €129. A fully functional demo version is now available for download (a short burst of noise is added every 20 seconds).
