  • In this video I review how well the Vertigo VSE-2 plugin EQ compares to the analogue hardware. The Vertigo VSE-2 is a 3 band gyratory EQ with a beautiful sound to it. Let see who wins in this shootout of analogue vs digital.

    Plugin are a little harsh and lifeless, but for the price difference, the plugin are a total winner in the world of the mixing in the box. Thank you.

    Hardware smoother with bit more depth but I also noticed that it shifts the center image to the left side quite a bit so the channel balance isn't perfect, which could be simulated by using 2 VSE-2 plugins in dual mono configuration

    I could hear some tolerance between the two just like analog eq never target the identical frequency as if i put it on 2000khz on the first eq , the second eq will boost at 2100 even if i have them in the same settings but the hardware has more width and depth but they nailed the eq curve and phase.

  • @JesusMTossas

    It is a good EQ, I do notice a good percentage of the difference between the two units. without going into a rabbit hole I feel the analog unit outperforms the plugin and to me is greater than 5%.

    • @AudioAnimalsStudio
      @AudioAnimalsStudio  2 года назад

      There is certainly a difference. I think I was being generous with the 5%

      @@AudioAnimalsStudio haha, I believe 50% would perhaps be generous... I think of it as such: at certain scenarios, it is like this: Is it good enough or it isn't? If you know the difference and hear it in your listening environment, than if that difference matters to you, it is more like 100% better 🙂

      @finspire8632 we all see percentages differently. After comparing 100's of different plugins to their hardware equivalent, your view on percentages change. This is not a 50% difference plugin.

    Love the hardware and the plugin also sounds great. Have you compared the Brainworx VSM-3 and VSC-2 plugins to the Vertigo VSM-4 and VSC-3 plugins? I wonder why Vertigo did not continue working with Brainworx for the next evolution of their plugins.

    • @AudioAnimalsStudio

      Yes I have compared these but didn't shoot a video. This is on my list to do.

  • @ggeessttaalltt
    @ggeessttaalltt 2 месяца назад

    both sound good, but the plugin sounds a little flat and up front to me, even just watching on phone speakers. like there’s some 3D space with the hardware that’s missing. not the worst when you compare the price though.

  • @gwsound
    @gwsound 2 года назад +2

    ok, in the video demos from 3m02 you hear a big difference on the highs between the hardware and plugin. Plugin is vague in the highs and the hardware is precise and more detailed.

    • @AudioAnimalsStudio
      @AudioAnimalsStudio  2 года назад

      Yes I agree. Hardware is smooth and pleasing to the ear, the plugin feels somewhat harsh and brittle.

      @@AudioAnimalsStudio Wonder how it Is possible that they can't make the plugin sound better. A bit strange. Vertigo makes brilliant hardware. I got the VSM2 which let you be very creative with sound.

      Its a good plugin. Feels like the reel thing in many ways and has extra features. It isn't cheap and it is quite a bespoke plugin.

    Once again, EQ software is pretty close. Good enough if you choose a top eq that doesn't smear transients or shrink the soundstage.

    Also the stereo imagery is way better on the analog unit. The plugin seems to place it higher...

    The plugin (whether good or bad) massively shifts the tonal shape of the material in comparison to the hardware. I know you have to be politically correct, perhaps? It's far more than 5% in my opinion.

    Hardware definitely more snappy on transients and has more solid low-end basement, which is usually the main difference between algos and hardware of any kind.
