Sterile digitale vs. analog - style warmth

One way to add a bit realism to your mix is to use:


  • gain plugin (e.g. Free G from sonalksis)
  • distortion plugin (e.g. camelcrush from camel audio)



    => A common way to simulate the analog style warmth is to use gain/distortion and tube emulation. Used carefully and sparingly it can make your mix sounds a lot better!



    To give your entire mix a “vintage style” flavor, add a gain and/ or distortion plugin to your master channel. (Many producers use “PSP Vintage Warmer” for this job.)
