Waves Audio has introduced a new audio plugin that is modeled on the detailed circuit behavior of carefully selected vintage valve tube hardware.

The Magma Tube Channel Strip lets you sculpt your tracks with the rich, textured analog tube Magma sound in a full channel strip covering your most crucial mixing needs: compression/gating, EQ and saturation.

The Magma Channel is modeled on the detailed circuit behavior of carefully selected vintage valve tube hardware, using the same Waves True Valve Modeling technology that was utilized to create the massively successful BB Tubes plugin. Now you can shape your complete tone and dynamics quickly, with the authentic, warm, classic tube sound that defines the Waves Magma family of plugins.

Magma Channel is built for speed: just a few no-nonsense knobs for drive/saturation, EQ lows, mids, and highs, compression and expansion/gating—each knob carefully designed to hit a sweet spot no matter where you turn it. The Magma Tube Channel Strip is perfect for any vocal, instrument, or bus. As Grammy-winning mix engineer Jacquire King says, “Whatever you run through it, it just sounds better!”

Magma Tube Channel Strip features

  • Tube-based dynamics, EQ, and saturation.
  • Glue your mix together with tube compression and drive.
  • Add creamy tube saturation, from subtle to fully distorted.
  • Add silky top end and super-fat bottom with a musical 3-band EQ.
  • Control dynamics with subtle to aggressive tube compression.
  • Get tighter, cleaner dynamics with Magma’s gate/expander.
  • +450 artist presets by Jacquire King, Greg Wells, Lu Diaz, more.

The plugin is on sale at an 80% introductory discount, priced $29.99 USD for a limited time only.
