The
Metric Halo Production Bundle for AAX is here – the seven essential plug-ins that will help you take your Pro Tools 10 projects to new heights: ChannelStrip 3, Character, HaloVerb, Multiband Dynamics, Precision DeEsser, TransientControl, and Multiband Expander. We wanted to do more than simply port our existing ChannelStrip plug-in to the AAX format. We wanted to release a suite of software that builds on ChannelStrip's fourteen-year legacy of sonic quality and gives our customers great signal processing options for Pro Tools 10.
Software requirements: Pro Tools 10 for Macintosh, iLok account
ChannelStrip 3 for AAXWe started with ChannelStrip 2; a plug-in that's been used on countless hits and soundtracks with a fourteen year pedigree. Then we made it better, incorporating user feedback. Now we're proud to release ChannelStrip 3 for Pro Tools 10.
Character for AAXMore than 20 analog circuit models for Pro Tools 10 for less than $200
To create Character we asked our beta testers to send us their favorite analog processing devices; the mic pres, DIs and EQs that they used for recording, mixing and mastering. We then used SpectraFoo to measure the ways that these processors changed the sound run through them, in particular the way the analog circuits add distortion. We then modeled this distortion using our +DSP technology.
We've now brought this technology to Pro Tools as the Character AAX plug-in for Pro Tools 10. Character provides over 20 different models, incorporating the sound of tubes, transformers and solid state devices. Character for Pro Tools also adds a Drive control to allow you to push the distortion even harder for over-the-top sound mangling.
HaloVerb for AAXCreate your perfect space in Pro Tools 10
HaloVerb is an AAX plug-in that allows you to add ambience and depth to your recordings. Based on the original HaloVerb for 2d Expanded Metric Halo interfaces, the AAX version expands on the great algorithmic sound to give you more flexibilty and control. Use the reverb impuse to see the reverberant field as you make adjustments, or hide the graphics and let your ears be your guide.
Multiband Dynamics for AAXSometimes the best EQ is a compressor.
Multiband Dynamics is an AAX plug-in that allows you to shape the timbral quality of your audio by running it through a three-way crossover, providing independant compression per frequency range and then putting the result through a limiter.
Multiband Expander for AAXExpand your horizons in Pro Tools 10.
Multiband Expander is an AAX plug-in that allows you to shape the dynamic quality of your audio by running it through a three-way crossover, providing independant expansion per frequency range.
Precision DeEsser for AAXA surgical strike on stubborn sibilance, on Pro Tools 10.
The Precision DeEsser is an AAX plug-in that allows you to manipulate your tracks and remove remove excessive high frequency content. It combines the high precision filter technology and dynamics processing of ChannelStrip with the metering and analysis of SpectraFoo to allow you zero in on offending frequencies and correct them quickly and efficiently.
TransientControl AAXThe TransientControl has become one of the go-to plug-ins for AAXusers, used in studios and onstage by engineers around the world.
TransientControl is an AAX plug-in that allows you to modify dynamics in ways that aren't possible with traditional compressors. You can directly change the transient ("attack") and sustain of your audio; this allows you to make your tracks more punchy, or smooth them out so they sit in a mix.
