ChannelStrip
ChannnelStrip is a modeled tube preamp with 3 band EQ and oscilloscope available in M4L/VST3/CLAP plugin formats.
Controlling dynamics with saturation is an often overlooked technique in music production. ChannelStrip is intended as an end-of-chain effect giving you smooth modeled tube saturation combined with an oscilloscope to monitor how the waveform is compressed. The integrated 3-band equalizer will furthermore help you apply gentle, unobtrusive tone-shaping.
Even as a simple distortion effect or equalizer, ChannelStrip will make a great addition to Ableton's stock plugins.
There's also an advanced version with more features called ChannelStrip Pro.
Features:
- Oversampled modeled tube saturation with character control
- Gentle 3-band equalizer

Available in M4L (Ableton Live 11+ Mac/Windows) and VST3/CLAP (Mac/Win/Linux 64bit) formats.
KNOWN ISSUES:
Some anti virus software flag the Windows CLAP and VST3 versions of this plugin as (false positive) malware. Hang tight while I work on a fix for that.
