The Focusrite SC also features a “listen option”, allowing you to focus for greater control of the De-Esser/Exciter. At the bottom of the Dynamics section, you will find the Dynamics Filter section, providing you with high-pass and low-pass filters, as well as a peak filter. Combine this hit-friendly functionality with Ableton Live 10 Lite and some of the most versatile plug-in processors available — including the Focusrite Red 3 plug-in and Brainworx bxconsole Focusrite SC — and you’re all set to get your vocals noticed.
Brainworx Audio has unveiled the bx_console Focusrite SC, a plug-in inspired by two channel strip modules – ISA-110 and -130 – which featured on Focusrite’s rare Studio Console (only 10 were ever made), originally designed by Rupert Neve. The ISA-110 featured a transformer-coupled mic preamp, a four-band EQ as well as high- and low-pass filters, while the companion ISA-130 module was a compressor, limiter and de-esser combined. ISA rack-mount units were the first products manufactured in 1989 when a new company, Focusrite Audio Engineering Ltd., headed by Phil Dudderidge (of Soundcraft Electronics fame), continued to develop and manufacture Focusrite products after it acquired the assets of Rupert Neve’s company.
Brainworx Bx_console Focusrite Sc
bx_console Focusrite SC continues the tradition started by Brainworx with the SSL 4000 plug-in, in that it offers 72 channels based on Brainworx’s patent-pending Tolerance Modeling Technology (TMT). Every one of bx_console Focusrite SC’s 72 channels offers a slightly different sound by modelling the channel-to-channel variances amongst the analogue components. The plug-in adds several additional controls in the EQ and Dynamics sections.
In addition to the usual channel strip controls, Brainworx has thrown in two variable controls: Total Harmonic Distortion (THD) and Virtual Gain. THD is designed to dial in colour and saturation, while Virtual Gain can be used to add simulated noise independently to each channel, giving you an extra dose of analogue vibe.
