An instrument and two audio processors

If you’re looking for a new software organ, spoken word processing or virtual analogue console plug-in, this is your lucky week. Keep reading and you’ll see what we mean.

If you've got a new PC or Mac plug-in, make sure you let us know about it by emailing musicradar.pressreleases@futurenet.com with all the details.

WaveArts Dialog

WaveArts Dialog

We’re used to seeing plug-ins that are designed to clean-up vocal recordings, but this one differs from the crowd by being particular suited to dealing with spoken-word recordings. Features include brickwall filters, de-hum and de-buzz processing, broadband noise reduction, de-ploding, de-essing, 10-band equalization, compression and limiting.

Wild Noise Wild Organ

Wild Noise Wild Organ

This new organ plug-in promises to emulate analogue and digital instruments (there are four models to choose from). The sound can be tweaked with a selection of familiar organ parameters, and there are effects, too. Low CPU usage is also a selling point.

Slate Digital Virtual Console Collection

Details of this one have been floating around for a while, but it’s only just been released. VCC models four analogue consoles and enables you to mix and match between them. There are actually two plug-ins in the package: one for individual channels and another for the master fader.
