AlexB - Modern Flagship Console : RELEASED !

[Avgatzeblouz]

Hey guys, does anyone know what has been used to do the different busses (drums, synth, guitars,etc...). Eq on the console ? hitting the bus differently ?

Thanks.

Finally decided to buy it today. Just played around with it and its am-a-zing. Never thought the difference would be that noticeable. It's that 10% I was missing in my mixes. Thank you AlexB you are a genius!

The manuals used to have graphs. I think the buss channel has been slighly adjusted (gain, eq etc), so It uses the console-EQ and stuff. The old CLC (SLL4000) used to have a setting called background vocals which I found actually worked really well with background vocals ^^

All (or most) of the new console libraries still have the multiple buss presets (BG Vocals, Guitar, Synth, etc)

So I guess these are presets you could achieve by applying EQ and maybe compression from the EQ/comp libraries related to the same console, right ?

Sure, but one of the nice things with these presets (for me at least) is the "load and go" convenience. Sometimes for me fewer options makes work more productive. I can get mired with endlessly trying options if I am not careful.

Yeah yeah, I'm with you, I was just wondering what processing these busses had received. Thanks for the clarification.

Email or message Alex, he is usually super-happy to explain his libraries. I think the "processing" is only some eq.

[Avgatzeblouz]

will do, and will let you know.

I'm interested learning more about these busses as well. I just wanted to echo the comments that MFC sounds incredible. I have both MFC and the A16 - sometimes the A16 can be almost a little too forward, so I have been experimenting with combining them. For example, acoustic guitar sounds great with MFC Line In and A16 on the master. Nebula gives some really cool opportunities for combinations...

In the GroupBus and MixBus there is an hardware eQ patched with very little adjustment.
The "Clean" preset it's the pure Bus.

For the GroupBus it can be a vintage Pultec, Vintage 1073, Vintage A*I etc.

For the MixBus Modern preset, it is the channel eQ of the sampled console.

ALL new consoles are sampled in this way.

User manual says that.

Looks like MFC G.BUS CLEAN program missing in LE programs.
Please fix that.

Every time I see this thread high in the list I think: "Yeah, the GE, finally"

But its just about the LE clean bus

The LE clean bus is unimportant to me

GE is what I want released

And MFQ GE to go with that

Your patients will be well worth this wait. Yes

2. I think the claim that 'clean bus' is missing is NOT correct. GE is using a different Preset structure than before.
I'm not sure if the Manual has been updated ... but we have the 'beta' notes from AlexB.

3. we are testing one of the new elements for this Suite ... and each of them are 'sweet'

Alex will announce when this creation is ready.
