Softube Trident A-Range Plug In - Download license

The Softube Trident A-Range EQ plugin is a faithful recreation of the legendary Trident A-Range console.

The Softube Trident A-Range EQ is the first and only native (VST/AU/RTAS) plug-in that has been fully endorsed by original designer Malcolm Toft and Trident Audio.

As only thirteen A-Range consoles were ever made, it remains a holy grail for sound engineers and producers around the world that hope to create equal works of art to those that were originally recorded on the A-Range — David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust, Queen, Elton John, the list goes on...

The A-Range channel features four bands of equalization and high and low pass filters. The sound of the bands is often referred to as "colorful" and "musical". When running a hot enough signal through the original unit and boosting the bands, it is possible to get it to distort, the result is a hairy and effective saturation that is just right in some situations!

The distortion of the original desks is of course captured by the plug-in. Instead of using an input volume to drive the signal, we chose to use a Saturation knob instead — so that you don't have to compensate the Output volume all the time.

This software requires an iLok Software Authorisation Device, please see related products.
