Having a vintage gear collection in the studio is nice and inspirational but unfortunately, it is also time-consuming and expensive. SounDevice Studio’s owner, Boris Carloff, knows this very well, as he has been collecting vintage gear for more than 20 years: “There is always something not working. From tubes to scratchy pots, from meters to noisy caps. The units are so rare that you can hardly ever use them on multiple channels simultaneously.” To avoid these limitations, United Plugins were inspired to create a solution that included the best of these devices into one plugin. The result is UniChannel.
UniChannel delivers the warm analogue sound, but unlike its real hardware counterparts, it can be connected to every channel of your mix. You can also change the components with one click (instead of using a screwdriver or a patch bay). UniChannel has a preset for every occasion. And there are no ageing and broken components to maintain!
UniChannel includes 3 preamp types, 3 kinds of EQ, and 3 compressor types. That makes a total of 27 combinations, with a unique character for each of them. That’s 27 unique plugins in one! Bypass the EQ or the Compressor and you will hear that the sound variety is almost endless. Variety inspires.
VARM II is technology based on knowledge of chaotic behaviour and randomness of the analogue world. Thanks to VARM II, each plugin instance acts slightly differently. VARM models randomness of the subtle differences of the values of the electrical parts – exactly as in the real electrical units and the real console channels. The result is the truest representation of the hardware units’ sound.
The full German Channel is amazing on the drum buss. It is something like magic on voice, and United Pugins wouldn’t use anything else for jazzy styles or ballad intimacy. German features a fifties-style tube preamp, sixties-style rare EQ, and a very early fifties tube vari-mu compressor.
The US eighties-style op-amp preamp and the eighties-style EQ have mid punch, great for electric guitar or toms, and the US early fifties tube compressor is a fat monster that makes vocals silky with amazing colour.
The Classic British channel brings you fat transformer colour for aggressive bass, kick drum, and rock attitude. It includes a British seventies-style transformer fat preamp, a seventies-style EQ, and a seventies-style diode bridge compressor.
UniChannel intelligently detects whether it makes sense to perform processing at all. And if not, it temporarily turns on sleep mode. In such a state, it requires virtually no CPU at all to save the computing sources for other processes.
UniChannel is available to PC and Mac users (VST2, VST3, AU and AAX).
