1973 is a tribute to the Neve 1073, often considered to be one of the best large-format console channel modules ever made. Punchy, detailed...... [more]

Sometimes digital is just TOO perfect. Sometimes you just want a little grit a little dirt a little imperfection. That's where Bad Buss Mojo comes in. Bad Buss Mojo allows you to dial in specific tweaks to a virtual mix buss amplifier. Is the + rail a little low? Dial it in. PSU not quite as stiff as it could be? Dial in a bit of knee in the bend. Old-school transistors or even tubes? Dial in some nonlinear modulation. It'll go from "I can't hear that you've done anything, but I like it" all the way up to "Why did you run my mix through a guitar amp?".... [more]

Event Horizon is a "Peak-Eating" Limiter - it's a clipper with an optional soft-clip circuit. By truncating waveforms short of where the DAC would go into clipping, you can get VERY transparent loudness increases; unlike most limiters, Event Horizon does this with ZERO pumping, ZERO transient or frequency artifacts, and with ZERO latency. It may not let you be louder than the latest flavor of the month mastering limiter, but within its range of operation, you WILL get a natural sound. Its output is what comes into it only louder. If you push it too hard, it will tell you in no uncer... [more]

Major Tom is not your ordinary compressor. It was designed with very specific goals in mind, and blew completely past them. Major Tom is intended to be easy to use: there are no attack and release controls the values vary depending on the level of the signal relative to its threshold. These values are very finely tuned to make it as musical as possible, without requiring a wall full of gold records to hit the right settings. The attack/release settings are inspired by one of the true stealth vintage compressors, the dbx* 160. You may not hear about it much, but you've heard it on records tim... [more]

The Rocket is a character audio compressor, singular in its extraordinary speed, responding in mere microseconds to variations in program level. Being in the order of several thousand times faster than most ordinary compressors, Stillwell Audio respectfully submit that The Rocket "kicks like a mf". Violation of the laws of physics and digital signal processing remain beyond us at this time, and a single sample at 44.1kHz has a span of 22.6 microseconds. The Rocket's attack time can be below this level, for absolute certainty that even the very first sample understands that you are it... [more]

Transient Monster is simplicity itself. It will save your drum mixes. Two controls: Attack, and Sustain.... [more]

Verbiage is a flexible algorithmic reverb. Separate control over early and late reflections, stereo or mono in (input mix), stereo or mono out (width), flip wet output channels for cross reverb (very cool for panning mono instruments and letting them fill a space without getting overly wet), high-pass filters, gating, etc. ...

Vibe-EQ is all about color. The more boost or cut you dial in, the more color and funk you get.... [more]
