Crane Song PHOENIX TDM (MAC OSX Unpaced) | 24 Mb

PHOENIX is a TDM Plug-In for Pro Tools that is designed to put analog color into the digital domain by increasing apparent loudness without increasing gain (e.g., by modeling analog tape compression). The result is added realism that is missing in "modeled" synths, EQs and digital samplers. The five "flavors" of PHOENIX can solve the "digititus" problem common in digital recordings, resulting in a much more musical and satisfying sound. Five different TDM plug-ins emulate different tape characteristics, each one incorporating a color change button allowing three choices to modify the process.

The Gold button is the position where the color is approximately flat in frequency response, with Sapphire being a brighter, and Opal being a warmer tonality. A level control determines the amount of the PHOENIX process integrated into the audio signal, and an input trim determines “how hard you hit the tape.” Because the DSP process is level dependent, reducing the input level will also cause a change in sound.
