Antelope Audio ALT-436C

ALT-436C is our software recreation of the great-sounding late 1950s single-channel Vari-MU compressor loved by pop producers for its ability to enhance vocals and bass guitars like no other unit. 

ALT-436C is a relic from the Beatles era. With its all-analog components and ground-breaking vari-MU design, both precisely measured, captured, and recreated in the native domain, this legendary unit offers a very musical and distinctive sound. ALT-436C is surprisingly versatile and useful with a variety of instruments. It is most known for its ability to make bass guitars and vocals truly stand out in the mix but is also cable of adding its warm all-tube polish to brass, strings, or synth tracks. When used on a mix bus, ALT-436C can add just the right amount of glue to make your mix tight and cohesive without adding too much vintage color to it. Rediscover the true sound of this all-tube compressor classic with any DAW and interface you might be using.
