Tasteful and beautiful sounding

We are really proud to announce our first signature plugin, developed with none other than legendary producer-engineer Al Schmitt, who unfortunately passed away recently. Our team worked with Al in analyzing his workflow, gear and processes of the last decades, from subtle harmonic characteristics to echos, compression and EQ. This then led us to create distinctive features that define his sound.

The Al Schmitt signature plugin has 6 distinct profiles: vocal, piano, bass, brass, strings, and mix (bus). Each one has different sonic characteristics and parameters based on Al’s workflow and perception of each instrument. Distilled to minimal controls, and conceived to allow you to get your sound instantly.
