Released at the turn of the millennium with the slogan “Artistry in Analogue”, the Rupert Neve-Designed Amek 9098i Master Console was one of the highest achievements in analog console design. Now, with the release of the bx_console Amek 9099, it has become one of Brainworx’ most coveted and fully-featured console plugins.
The Amek 9099 has the kind of EQ you’d expect from a Rupert Neve design, with wide, musical curves, capable of tightening up enough to give you the precision you need without ever sounding “bad”. The dynamics section goes even further than the norm, with a fully variable expander, gate, compressor and limiter, complete with extremely flexible sidechain capabilities.
The original Amek 9098i was dotted with features not commonly found in analog consoles of its day. The EQ shelves feature a “Sheen” and “Glow” mode for even smoother boosts and cuts, while the parametric bands include a “Notch” mode for even more precise cuts. A unique “Ambience” switch in the dynamics section lets you easily hear exactly what your compressor is doing. And, the onboard EQ can operate as a fully parametric dynamics sidechain filter for even more precise control of your compressor and limiter.
The engineers at Brainworx improved on a good by adding parameters not found on the original hardware: including a special “Clip” function to the limiter for super fast and smooth soft clipping; a new fully-functional expander/gate with its own sidechain filter, reminiscent of the classic Drawmer gates; and for the first time ever in a bx_console plugin, onboard Mono Maker, Stereo Width and Auto Listen control.
Features include:
- Brainworx´ most extensive TMT Console Emulation based on the legendary AMEK 9098i Master Console
- Feature-packed channel strip including a Compressor, Limiter, Clipper, 4-Band EQ, wide-ranging High Pass and Low Pass filters, and a newly designed Expander/Gate
- “Sheen” and “Glow” modes alter the behavior of the shelving filters for smoother boosts and cuts
- “Notch” function on the parametric EQ bands eliminates problem areas without affecting neighboring bands.
- Mono Maker offers control over low frequency stability by centering the sound image
- Stereo Width for expanding or narrowing the sound image
- Specially designed Noise Gate inspired by the legendary analog gear
- Gate Key Listen for hearing the signal at the gate side chain input
- Smooth & Auto Listen solos the frequency band you’re adjusting so you can hear every change in close detail
- TMT—Brainworx‘s patent-registered “Tolerance Modeling Technology” (US Patent No. 10,725,727)
- Artist Presets—Packed with professional presets to give you a great starting place for finding your sound
