Slate Digital have announced the release of the latest version of their award-winning virtual-analogue channel strip software. Featuring nearly 40 modules, with more yet to be added, Virtual Mix Rack 3.0 offers an all-in-one mixing solution that brings together a comprehensive selection of modelled compressors, equalisers, exciters, saturators and more.
What’s New?
Virtual Mix Rack 3.0 builds on the strength of its predecessor by adding an array of user-requested features that aim to allow creators to design and implement custom signal processing chains with greater ease and control than ever before. Here’s a quick breakdown of what’s included in the upgrade:
- Preset Browser: Quickly find the perfect purpose-built channel strip for a wide range of instruments and genres — new presets are being added all the time.
- Macro Controls: Automate multiple parameters simultaneously for complex sound adjustments with a single knob.
- Side-chain Input: Precisely control dynamics processing from an external channel, independent of the main audio signal.
- Module Gain Trimming: Achieve seamless gain staging between modules to maximise signal-to-noise and minimise distortion.
- Interface Scaling: Customise the user interface to a preferred size for an optimised mixing experience.
“VMR 3.0 reflects Slate Digital’s commitment to providing tools that amplify the artistry and productivity of creators. This new release not only incorporates features that producers have asked for, but also introduces new ways to work faster and with more control over each plug-in within the processor chain.” - John Bastianelli, CEO of Slate Digital
