T-RackS SINGLE BRITISH CH (Download)
Solid state channel strip

The British Channel module was modeled after one of the most widely used   acknowledged pieces of hardware in the music history. Countless hit records around the world have been produced on this large format British mixing console since the 80`s making it a true staple of the music production technology for its ultimate flexibility   trademark sound.
Many of these consoles are still in active use today in the control rooms of countless studios around the world.
The signal path of this channel strip was closely modeled from top to bottom, in order to achieve such flexibility   control, so each gain stage   section switching option is matched,   this can be clearly heard in the British Channel precise   “forward” sound.
Nonetheless, we decided to add a few further enhancements to its already powerful design: selectable black/brown EQ mode allows the user to tap into the two EQ circuits that were peculiar of the console`s different versions (with the low shelf knob color showing which one is selected). This means that the dramatic frequency shifts   boost/cut ranges are available at the flick of a switch for instantaneous tone shaping possibilities, where the black mode has more inherent gain   sharper Qs, giving a more pronounced “EQ” effect.
I/O level controls were added to precisely drive the dynamics section from subtle compression to true squashing, still maintaining the razor sharp precision of the EQ   the channel`s overall sound faithful to the original. When the Input gain is set to drive more signal level into the unit the compressor will react with more gain reduction   distortion, adding wonderful analog saturation to the track. The overall level can be compensated by lowering the output knob. The added filters section, which can be either used on its own   within the side-chaining mode, rounds out the set of handy features.
