PRESS RELEASE
Abbey Road Studios Previews The Brilliance Pack Plug-ins At Summer NAMM 2008
June 23, 2008
Advertisement London's Abbey Road Studios are pleased to announce the release of the new Brilliance Pack plug-ins, as previewed at the NAMM convention in January. The Brilliance Pack provides authentic emulations of vintage EMI presence EQs for Mac and PC-based DAW systems. Based on the original modules built in the 1960s, the plug-ins bring these classic EQs to the digital domain. The original RS127 and RS135 EQ boxes were custom-built by EMI technicians in the early 1960s to supplement the limited EQ on the REDD mixing consoles. They were the predominant outboard EQs at Abbey Road throughout the '60s and were used on many famous recordings during this period, including almost every album made by The Beatles. The plug-ins were developed from original EMI circuit schematics, circuit simulation and digital modelling of vintage Abbey Road units. The plug-ins retain the operation and characteristics of the original hardware and essentially provide the complete range of presence EQs that were used at Abbey Road in the '60s. Peter Cobbin, Director of Engineering at Abbey Road Studios, says: "Put simply — they're brilliant! I can highly recommend using these EQs on guitars, keyboards and vocals. If you find that &plusmin;10 dB is not enough, do what they did back then — use two of them!" The plug-ins are compatible with Mac and Windows and provided in TDM, RTAS, AU and VST formats. The Brilliance Pack is priced at US $199 and is available to demo and purchase now from http://www.abbeyroadplugins.com    (Click for close-up)
