McDSP Classic Pack Native

McDSP Classic Pack: The Essential Bundle for Professional Mixes

The McDSP Classic Pack is the legendary collection that defined the sound of modern digital audio production. Featuring four of the most influential plugins in recording history—Analog Channel, CompressorBank, FilterBank, and the MC2000—this bundle brings the warmth, punch, and precision of world-class analog hardware directly into your DAW.

Since its inception, the McDSP Classic Pack has been a staple in professional studios worldwide, used by top-tier engineers like Dave Pensado and Tony Maserati. Now updated to Version 7 (v7), these plugins offer high-definition interfaces, zero-latency performance, and full support for both Apple Silicon and the latest Intel processors.

Four Legendary Plugins

Each plugin in the bundle is a powerhouse in its own right, designed to replace entire racks of analog gear.

• • FilterBank (Equalizer): McDSP’s first product, FilterBank, is a highly flexible equalizer capable of emulating nearly any analog EQ or creating custom curves with its unique peak-slope-dip controls and Real-Time Analyzer (RTA).
  • CompressorBank (Dynamic Processor): CompressorBank goes beyond simple compression, offering deep control over every dynamic parameter to emulate classic vintage units or modern “clean” digital styles with ease.
  • MC2000 (Multi-band Compressor): The MC2000 provides high-end multi-band compression, allowing you to independently control dynamic ranges across three or four bands with the same musicality as the original CompressorBank.
  • Analog Channel (Tape & Amp Emulation): Analog Channel is the secret to adding warmth and grit to digital tracks. It faithfully recreates the characteristics of high-end analog tape machines and channel amplifiers to smooth out harsh transients.

Key Features:

• Analog Emulation Excellence: Authentic recreations of vintage equalizers, compressors, and high-end tape machines.
• V7 Performance Enhancements: High-definition Retina-ready interfaces and zero-latency algorithms for real-time tracking.
• Flexible Activation: Supports two activations per license via iLok Cloud, iLok USB dongle, or Machine-ID (hard drive) activation.
• Artist Presets: Access over 1,500 presets from award-winning mix engineers to jumpstart your workflow.
• Universal Compatibility: Native support for AAX, AU, and VST3 formats on both macOS and Windows.
