Shy audio releases Shy 90s Channel Plugin (VST3, AU & AAX)

Shy audio has released Shy 90s Channel, a new plugin to "inject all the vibes of classic '90s consumer mixing desks".

With Shy 90s Channel, you can work as if you're sitting in a bedroom studio in 1996, tweaking your tracks without knowing exactly what you're doing, yet achieving gritty greatness.

EQ

Use the EQ section to sculpt your tracks with the broadest brush imaginable and massively change their timbre from soft to really over-the-top:

• Switchable High Shelf (from 'Original' to 'Linear'): Original behavior lowers the mid-gain as you boost the high shelf.
• Parametric Mid Band: This band really pushes everything thrown at it with huge power reserves.
• Switchable Low Shelf: It can either act as a super broad shelf or be centered around 30 Hz for maximum low bass power.

Drive

Capable of pushing any source into intense distortion while preserving the low-end. When combined with the EQ, the Drive creates unique frequency-dependent harmonics, enabling a wide range of overdrive effects:

• Frequency-dependent nonlinearities up to +30 dB. At max settings, though, it introduces a 60 Hz low cut to protect your speakers.
• Unique mixture of even and odd harmonics.
• Smooth response, even when all EQ gains are maxed out (We actually recommend doing that).

Signal

The final part of the chain is the Signal module, where you can apply additional filters to even out and modulate the signal. Use the Dry/Wet knob to fully blow your audio and reintroduce some of its original character:

• 12 dB/Oct Low and High Cut filters.
• Phase-aligned Dry/Wet control for the entire signal chain, excluding the clean output fader, allowing you to level everything to taste.
• Mini signal metering, where 0 VU indicates you're close to the ideal input, and the red OL means: It's getting tasty.
