Console×8056 Demo: Analog Mixing in
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- Demo of the Monomono Console×8056 #maxforlive devices for #analog #console #mixing experience and rich tone - inspired by legendary British console and modelled on hardware. Full channel strip including Pre×73, EQ×73, Comp×54 and Console×80 summing amplifier.
- Pre×73 for rich harmonic saturation and frequency response modelled on the famous pre amp.
- EQ×73 deceivingly simple yet incredibly powerful 4 band EQ matching the legendary hardware.
- Comp×54 is incredibly capable, punchy and thick compressor based on the diode bridge design.
- Console×80 a summing amplifier for groups and master bus providing the ability to switch between vintage or modern console styles changing the frequency response, headroom and saturation on all of the devices in Ableton session on the fly adding various flavours to your mix.
Made specifically for Ableton Live - for faster, better mixes. Compatible with Live themes and Push 3 standalone ready.

sounds good to my ears and beautiful UI 🖖
wow that does the thing!!!
Love it ❤
12:00 sorry if it's a silly question, but on the Comp why is the Attack going like "Slow [...] 10, 4, 2" but then "0.1, 0.2, 0.4, 0.8, Fast"???
Why is it going up again after crossing 1ms, towards longer attack values?
Does it really work like that, or is this a GUI error?
EDIT: Sorry - just saw you explaining it. My bad!!! :D
Awesome stuff, BTW + thanks for zooming in :)
Glad I was able to clear this out in the video! Appreciate your kind words!
Gain compensation (eg inversely linked input and output) would be a nice refinement, otherwise this looks more than just decent!
Thank you so much for your suggestion. During the tests, we felt the link function, which is available on other devices, did not provide any value, but rather still required to unlink and adjust the input on the Pre - which took more time. And on top of that in most cases compensation would still be required on the EQ output and since they are split, it wasn’t a straightforward feature. Once you’ve learned the devices, gain staging kinda clicked after a few uses. Hope this explains our thinking and I hope I understood your suggestion correctly.
What frequency is the High Shelf Side Chain set at?
(In the case, that one would want to "bandpass compress" specific frequency ranges for serial compression).
Thank you for your question. The shelf is around 2 KHz, but the bandwidth is wide, so it captures frequencies up to 1 KHz. If you low pass around 260 Hz and cut around 6-8 dB on the high shelf, most compression will be triggered by the mid range.
@@monomonoaudio Awesome, thanks. Will be interesting to test out.
I've been deeply invested in mapping compressor threshold amounts to velocities via Ableton's Expression Control or manually automating the threshold for audio, allowing gain reduction to be consistent from soft to loud. Full dynamic range compression in small GR amounts, while SC filters are tuned to focus on specific frequencies depending on the key of an instrument/song. But I digress, thanks for making a great compressor with a lot of character.
Wow, never heard about any technique like that. Very interesting. If you happen to make a video on this, I’d love to check out.
Thank you for doing some awesome stuff with devices, really. Glad you found them useful.
Hey. How many instances or on what channels would you add the "console 80" part? Just the master or is that something you'd have more than one instance of?
Hey! Thank you for your question.
It really depends on my goals: if you're not strapped on CPU and you enjoy how it sounds, I'd add it on all groups and Main bus. Even if it cuts into high frequencies a bit too much during the mix, you can compensate it during the mastering. In the mix I prefer to leave some headroom in high frequencies anyway. If you want to conserve some CPU - just drop it on your Main bus: either as a clipper - putting it as the last device with Soft Clip function on, or you can just use it for character early on the Main bus and put your mastering chain on top.
Hope this makes sense and answers your question. Don't hesitate to ask.
@@monomonoaudio no this makes perfect sense. I'll be purchasing this weekend. Thanks for doing this. I was actually talking with a friend about making something similar but you beat us to the punch and honesty looks like you put a lot of thought into it to achieve a really really cool final result.
Appreciate it a lot! I think you guys shouldn’t be discouraged by any available products similar to what you’re thinking. Especially when you see a clear value and improvement you bring to the table. If anything it might be a sign of actual demand! So let this release not stop you, but rather inspire with new ideas! Looking forward to seeing what you got in the future.
