Description

Add legendary Avalon gloss and presence to bass, vocals, voice-over, and more with the only authentic emulation of the best-selling standalone channel strip ever made.

The dominant player in chart-topping productions, Avalon's flagship VT-737 channel strip is the best-selling standalone channel strip ever made. From Jay-Z and Dr. Dre, to Babyface and Beyonce, the Avalon VT-737 Tube Channel Strip plug-in delivers the same consistently polished results, with radio-ready gloss and detail.

Capture the Sound of Modern Music
By artfully capturing our "golden unit" Avalon's flagship VT-737 hardware's class-A tube amplifier section, LED-style optical compression, and discrete four-band EQ, you can give your tracks the signature Avalon sound heard on thousands of chart-topping hits.

Record Vocals and Bass "Through" a Hit-Making Tube Preamp with Apollo
UA's groundbreaking Unison technology lets you track in realtime through the Avalon VT-737 Channel Strip plug-in using your Apollo, giving you the chart-topping sound of the original hardware's line/mic preamp impedance, gain stage 'sweet spots," and exact circuit behaviors.

Experience Versatile Compression on Vocals and More
Excelling on vocals, bass, acoustic guitar, and voice-over work, the VT-737 plug-in's dynamics section gives your tracks the hardware's gentle touch, rather than adding squash or crunch. This transparent compression is perfect for 'stacking" the compressor again at mixdown, so you can control a vocal in a dense mix.

Fine-Tune Your Mixes with Bold EQ
The Avalon VT-737 plug-in's four-band EQ, gives your vocals a lively presence and sophistication, placing them front-and-center in any mix. Like the hardware, the EQ can be placed before or after the compressor, and the mid bands can be engaged as sidechain filters for laser-focused compression. And with the 32k high frequency "air band," you can add delicate shimmer to everything from strings to background vocals to acoustic guitars.
