Vertigo Sound VSC-2 v1.1.1 MAC OSX-ASSiGN

Team ASSiGN | 23.2.2012 | 7.92 MB
We are giving away the VSC-2 hardware which we have modeled! The winner will be drawn February 29th, and every license used to that date will take part and has a chance of winning this «Mercedes of VCA compression». We also honor ALL existing customers from the Alliance webshop and the former Brainworx bx_shop, of course.

Precision
Its precision makes the VSC-2 a first choice for mastering applications and the stereo mix bus.

Tracking & Mixing
Although the VSC-2 was developed as a Stereo Bus Compressor each channel provides a complete set of controls which also makes the VSC-2 a dual mono “Must Have” in recording and mix situations.

Plugin
The VSC-2 plugin offers the same flexibility and precision in the stereo version, and to emulate the dual mono approach of the hardware we have developed a true mono version of the plugin as well.

A Word From Vertigo
“We are amazed how accurate the plugin simulates the real deal. We have compared it to the hardware several times now in a professional studio and cannot hear any difference at all. Is that good or bad. ”, says Andreas Eschenwecker, CEO of Vertigo Sound.

Version 1.1.1 (Jan 28, 2012)
— Resolved DAE/AAX AudioSuite incompatibility
— Fixed audio problems with certain licenses
— Fixed broken VST3 on Windows

“The Mercedes of VCA Compressors” — VINTAGE KING

Overview

Vintage King USA calls it “The Mercedes of VCA Compressors”.

The original hardware Vertigo VSC-2 Quad Discrete Compressor built its reputation largely on the four, custom hand built, discrete “1979” VCAs used in its design. The plugin version of the VSC-2 captures every nuance of the hardware version and puts it right into your digital audio workstation.

Quad Discrete VCA Compressor
The VSC-2 is Vertigo’s first plugin release, made in close cooperation with Brainworx, and based upon Vertigo’s “Big Impact Design”. The VSC-2 plugin captures all the fine nuances of this $6,00m0 flagship VCA compressor.

Although the VSC-2 was developed as a Stereo Bus Compressor, each channel provides a complete set of controls that also allows the VSC-2 to function as a dual mono device in recording and mix situations.

Plus you get a mono version for mixing situations, of course.

Other unique and innovative features lie beneath the bonnet, such as the ratio, which increases with amplitude in “Soft” mode. In this mode, the ratio positively corresponds to increasing input level, “tip toeing” in smoothly.

Features

• Ratio variable from “soft mode” through compression ratios of 2:1, 4:1, 8:1 and 10:1 all the way to “Brick” mode.
• Soft Mode: In soft mode the ratio starts at 1:1 and increases with input level up to 8:1. The compressor “tip-toes” into compression providing a nearly inaudible start of compression

• Brick Mode: In Brick Mode the VSC-2 becomes an analog Limiter, effectively cutting off Signal Peaks at the set threshold.

• SC Filters: These switches control the sidechain filters. In the 60 Hz or 90 Hz positions, those frequencies will be largely ignored by the compressor. In the off position, the sidechain filter is removed from the circuit.

• Stereo/Mono: Switches the VSC-2 between stereo and dual mono modes
