Rave Generation Master Bus Processor (Digital product)

Master Bus Processor

The Master Bus Processor consolidates your entire end-of-mix chain into a single, efficient signal path. This powerful tool features a four-band analog EQ, incorporating wave-digital-filter Pultec EQP-1A low and high-frequency sections, along with Maag-style body and air bands. Additionally, it includes an SSL-G-style VCA bus compressor with a ratio-linked knee and Auto release, a 3-band multiband loudness stage offering three selectable characters, harmonic drive, and an M/S widener with bass protection.

Each colored section can be routed independently to L/R, Mid, or Side, providing unparalleled flexibility. The unique Amount knob scales the entire processor toward neutral, adjusting the processing itself rather than mixing two signals, eliminating any risk of comb filtering as you dial it back. Enjoy features like 1x/2x/4x oversampling, gain-reduction metering without hidden auto-gain, and a soft-clip ceiling on the output.

Key Features:

• Six stages in one chain: analog EQ, SSL-G-style glue compression, harmonic drive, multiband loudness, stereo width, and master output.
• Wave-digital-filter Pultec EQP-1A low and high-frequency sections, plus Maag-style body and air bands, each with its own frequency selector.
• SSL-G-style VCA bus compressor featuring a ratio-linked knee, Auto release, parallel Mix, and a detection-path sidechain HPF.
• Multiband loudness with three distinct characters: Stadium, Tight, and Soft, allowing for tailored audio enhancement.
• One Amount macro that scales every effect toward neutral simultaneously, avoiding dry/wet summation and comb filtering.
• Full L/R, Mid, and Side routing available for every colored section.
• Stereo widener with an adjustable corner frequency to protect bass from being widened.
• 1x / 2x / 4x oversampling across the entire wet chain, with latency reported to the host.
• Accurate metering that reflects true gain reduction, free from hidden auto-gain.
• Instant A/B comparison with section bypass by title-click, preserving your settings.
