Universal Audio Helios Type 69 & Manley Vari-Mu plugins launch at $49 USD each

Plugin Boutique has launched an introductory promotion on two new native plugins from Universal Audio.

The Helios Type 69 Preamp and EQ Collection gives you the fat, authentic sound of the same analog preamp/EQ used on countless classic records from Bob Marley, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, and many more.

UA’s team of engineers dug deep into two original Type 69 “golden units,” faithfully emulating their distinct custom-made character, giving you colorful flavors that will bring your vocals, guitars, drums, and bass to life,

The Manley Vari-Mu Limiter Compressor offers an authentic emulation of Manley’s flagship compressor, allowing you to add definition and fidelity to individual tracks, stereo buses, or an entire mix.

As Manley Labs’ flagship compressor since 1994, the Vari Mu is a tube and transformer-driven classic that exudes handmade craftsmanship and is the gold standard among mixing and mastering engineers. The Manley Variable Mu Limiter Compressor plug-in gives your stereo buses or your entire mix the same clarity and cohesion as the high-end hardware.

Available for Windows and Mac (VST3, AU and AAX), the plugins are on sale for only $49 USD each until March 31st, 2024 (regular $299 USD).
