Inoffiziell: Solid-State-Logik-Fusion. Das Plugin Mix Processor (für Spuren und Gruppenbusse gedacht) verfügt über einen Sidechain-Filter im Dynamikbereich. Der Busprozessor (für den Mix-Bus und Mastering-Aufgaben gedacht) ersetzt die Dynamik-Sidechain durch eine Frequenzweiche und fügt einen Dimension-Regler (festfrequentes Low-Shelf-Filter innerhalb der Mid/Side-Matrix) hinzu, um den Pan-Regler zu ersetzen.


The Modern Master of Stereo Enhancement
Celestial is a highly sought-after suite inspired by a modern hardware legend: the SSL Fusion. It is specifically designed as a "stereo outboard processor" for your mix bus or mastering chain. Celestial excels at adding that elusive analog character, tonal weight, and spatial depth to digital mixes.
Key Features
-
Analog Drive: A sophisticated saturation section that introduces harmonic complexity. It’s perfect for adding "vibe" and thickening up a thin-sounding mix.
-
Violet EQ: Features a musical two-band shelving EQ. It’s designed for broad tonal shifts—adding a rich low-end or a sparkling "air" to the top end with minimal effort.
-
HF Compressor: A dedicated high-frequency compressor that smoothens out harsh transients and sibilance across the entire stereo spectrum, giving the mix a professional, "silky" finish.
-
Stereo Image Processor: Allows for precise control over the width and spatial placement of your mix, helping you achieve a massive soundstage while maintaining phase integrity.
-
Hyper Engine Power: Provides ultra-accurate modeling of the non-linear analog signal path with improved CPU efficiency.
Best Used For
-
Mix Bus: To glue your individual tracks together and give the overall sound a professional, analog "sheen."
-
Mastering: For final tonal balancing and spatial enhancement before the limiter.
-
Drum Groups: To add width and harmonic grit, making a drum kit sound larger than life.
Pro Tip: Use the HF Compressor to tame digital "edge." It is far more subtle than a standard de-esser and provides a smoothness that works wonders, especially on bright pop productions.
