The Slate VPC Virtual Preamp Collection brings to life the authentic tone of two classic microphone preamplifiers, offering a seamless blend of warm analog sound for modern digital recordings.
The Slate VPC Virtual Preamp stands at the forefront of analog modeling technology, meticulously recreating every facet of the preamp circuitry. It's not merely about adding color; it's about achieving the full spectrum of saturation and distortion inherent to analog sound. Initially conceived for tracks recorded with the Virtual Microphone System’s VMS-ONE Ultra Linear Microphone Preamp, its versatility extends to enriching any clean preamp signal, adding that extra touch of 'vibe'.
The FG-73 module embodies the essence of a famed British discrete solid state preamp, known for a bold, present, and warm sound. Its character shines on any audio source, making it a reliable choice for injecting a dose of warmth, be it on individual tracks or full mixes.
The FG-76 captures the thick and colorful tone of a vintage German tube preamp. Its unique bottom-end saturation makes it a preferred module for bass guitar and kick drum tracks, adding a lively texture that makes tracks feel more 'alive'.
The inclusion of a "virtual drive" knob simulates the nuanced behavior of amplifier input gain adjustment while managing the internal output trim. This feature facilitates easy gain staging of the preamp, allowing for a range of tonal effects from subtle coloration to full-on distortion, embodying the analog warmth in a digital realm.
