There are some people who are in love with any and all things Neve, but even if that doesn’t describe you, you’ll still enjoy this new plugin by DDMF called The Strip.
The Strip sure does look somewhat like a vintage Neve channel strip, but it doesn’t exactly try to emulate one. Instead it just goes for the best series of processors that it can be, which includes high and low pass filters, a 5 band EQ, a gate and a compressor. Plus the order of the order of the EQ and compressor is interchangeable, a nice feature not often found in channel strip-type plugins.
The Strip boasts some very low CPU usage so you can slap one on every channel if you want without having to worry about running out of processor power. It’s also available for Windows and Mac OSX, and in VST, RTAS, AU and AAX 32 and 64 bit formats.
Best of all, it’s only $39 until the end of September, with a free demo version available. Check it out!
