Plugin Alliance has introduced a new channel strip plugin from Brainworx. A dynamic sculpting toolkit, Vertigo VSS-2 combines the sound of Vertigo’s hardware, allowing you to add colorful EQ, compression, and saturation to your arrangements while mixing and mastering.
Vertigo is famed for its high-end production hardware that’s handwired in Germany with the best modern analog components. Praised by the pros for its precision and unique tonal qualities, you’ll find Vertigo gear in the studios of the greats, including Grammy-winners Craig Bauer and Dave Cobb. VSS-2 combines the best parts from its most celebrated studio hardware and painstakingly models them into one complete, discrete channel strip.
VSS-2 takes filters from the VSE-2, the quad VCA compressor from the VSC-3, the discrete Gyrator EQ from VSE-4, and the tubes from VSM-4. They’re all combined into a carefully curated signal chain that stands with the best of high-end analog consoles. It takes your sound, cleans it up, smooths it out, enhances the tone, and adds warmth. It’s perfect for tightening up vocals, adding punch to drums, or breathing life into flat mixes – the complete Vertigo mixing console in one plugin.
Available for Windows and Mac (VST3, AU and AAX), VSS-2 is on sale at Plugin Boutique and from the Plugin Alliance store for the intro price of $89.99 USD (ex. VAT where applicable) until June 25th, 2025 (regular $129 USD ex. VAT).
