Tube Channel 1.0.0

Analogue-modelled tube channel strip by OpenGrid: discrete mic/instrument preamp, 12AX7 tube stage, opto compressor with its detector circuit, four-band parametric EQ and output stage. Every stage, and the power supply, is solved as a circuit at the oversampled rate.

Formats: VST3, Audio Unit, CLAP, LV2 and a standalone app. macOS, universal (Apple silicon and Intel). Signed with a Developer ID and notarized by Apple.

Highlights

  • Two skins: an analogue hardware-style front panel and a flat digital one (spectrum EQ and compressor curve you can drag).
  • Default 2x oversampling, HQ 4x, and \( ᐖ)/ - Derp mode 16x; optional linear-phase variants.
  • Optional power-supply simulation (PSU SIM / FIXED) to save CPU.
  • Click the RATIO knob to swap the compressor for a brickwall limiter.
  • Stereo, linked stereo or dual mono, internal or external sidechain.

Install: download TubeChannel-1.0.0.pkg, open it, and choose the formats you want.
