Free Pultec EQ Emu - Pushtec 5 + 1A

The plugin is based on the old Pultec EQP-1A and the Pultec MEQ-5. Both EQ's are famous for their "musical" sound and still used in high end studios around the world.

Now the plugin gives you a nice sound. Of couse you can't expect it to sound like a real Pultec but for a free plugin the Pushtec EQ is impressive. Try it out its free !!!

Mr. Porter Interview

Apple enhance Logic to add full Automap integration

Now all Logic users can fully use Automap with their Novation Sl's and Nocturns
Apple enhance Logic to add full Automap integration image
Apple enhance Logic to add full Automap integration
The latest update to Logic Pro, v9.0.1, has been enhanced to include full Automap integration. This full integration means that instrument settings and plug-in parameters inside Logic can now all be accessed from all Automap-enabled controllers, such as the brand new Nocturn Keyboard, an SL MkII MIDI controller, or an Apple iPhone or iPod touch running the Automap app.


Now, when using an Automap-enabled Novation MIDI controller with the latest version of Logic, the mapping of the knobs, faders and buttons automatically adapts to the plug-in that's in focus on the screen. What's more, with Novation's SL MkII series of controllers, Logic's parameter names appear on the LCDs, giving you labelled visual feedback next to the controls on your hardware.


Currently, the parameter mappings have not been optimised for Logic, however, thanks to Automap's easy-to-use graphical user interface, you can customise and save the settings that best suit your workflow, then upload them to the Novation website user area.


Novation say that mappings for Logic's key plug-ins will be included with an imminent update to Automap 3.

Logic v9.0.1 is a free update to registered users of Logic Pro 9. To download the update, head to the support pages of Apple's web site. http://support.apple.com/kb/DL939

The fish fillets: 3 great vst effect plugins

Don't sleep on those. Especially the compressor has a very nice sound you mostly not going to find with other freeware compressors.
Mac & Logic supported !!!
BLOCKFISH screenshot
BLOCKFISH is a versatile compressor with countless ways to shape the incoming audio.
Unlike many other digital compressors, BLOCKFISH has 'soul'. It likes to bite, but it can be tamed easily once you've learned how to use its potential.
SPITFISH screenshot
SPITFISH is a dead-easy to use de-esser, aimed mainly at mono or stereo vocal tracks. Just like classic analog de-essers, this unit dynamically filters out harsh, annoying s-like sounds that would otherwise 'spit' in your face.

FLOORFISH screenshot
FLOORFISH is a simple expander / gate device, easy to set up and offers a broad variety of processing, ranging from slight expansion, backgound noise attenuation to extreme gating effects.
What's different from similar units is the ability to scan the source and adjust the transistion curve accordingly.

Chorus Effect inspired by the original Chorus on the Roland Juno Synth.
Just put it after a lead synth sound and it will add fatness to your sound.
