Alternate Timeline

Shape your sound across the eras.

Alternate Timeline puts six decades of analog recording character into a single processor. Pick the era, set the blend, and dial in the tone. Each setting applies the EQ curve, compression behavior, and harmonic profile of that era's best rooms - not a simulation of a simulation. Use it on individual tracks, bus groups, the 2-bus, or the master chain - for performance, production, soundtracks, and sound design. The parallel blend control means the compression level adapts to any context without overpowering the source.

Six Eras. One Processor.

From the warm clarity of the 1960s to the hyper-defined punch of the 2000s, each era captures the mastering character of its decade - the EQ, the compression behavior, the harmonic profile that defined how records sounded:

• 1960s - Crisp, rounded, subtle harmonic saturation.
• 1970s - Fat 70's bottom end, open but smooth high end, natural tape limiting character.
• 1980s - Huge bottom, punchy mids, fast attack, studio clarity.
• 1990s - High-definition presence, extended top end.
• 2000s - Dense, aggressive, maximum loudness density.
• Modern - Transparent, wide, streaming-optimized.

Read the Room.

Dual analog-style VU meters give you a real-time read of output level the way engineers have trusted for decades - ballistics and all. Not because it looks good. Because it tells you something peak meters can't.

Alternate Timeline is built for the 2-bus - but producers have been doing something else with it entirely.

Load it on a drum bus, a synth lead, a guitar room mic. Automate the era selector and ride it through a mix - super fun and sometimes the simplest moves have the biggest impact. Jump from 1960s to Modern mid-bar. Build tension by moving backward through decades into a breakdown. The character changes aren't subtle - they're usable as a performance instrument.

For composers working in period-specific styles, it's the fastest way to commit a production to an era without faking it. Music with door closed - music with it opened.. For everyone else, it's a texture engine that happens to double as a mix and mastering processor.
