UnitedPlugins has just released a new generation of FrontDAW, their lightweight saturating plugin.
In FrontDAW version 3, UnitedPlugins has added two more saturation types: magnetic tape (MG) and clipper (CL). Also, the workflow has been improved. You have access to undo/redo and comparison functions, an easy way to control oversampling, and input/output meters.
FrontDAW is intended to be used as the very first plugin on every track (if desired—FD is really CPU-friendly). The plugin adds gain and subtle saturation to them. Thanks to VARM (Variable Analogue Random Modeling—also used previously on Royal Compressor), each track sounds slightly different, even with identical settings.
However, using identical settings may not be the case for everybody because the plugin offers three types of saturation circuits: BR represents classic fat British consoles, US stands for punchy American-style input, and switching to GE will give you a velvet-sounding, colourful vintage German tube console.
All you have to do is to set the gain, choose saturation mode and set the saturation amount with the Mojo knob.
Re-introduction discount
UnitedPlugins is celebrating the new release with a re-introduction sale. If you don't have a license yet, you may get it with a 74% discount (€49 > €15) until April 15.
FrontDAW is compatible with the majority of VST/AAX/AU hosts on Windows and Mac, and you can test it using the 15-day fully working trial version. After the trial version expires, you may continue using FrontDAW as a free (slightly-limited) plugin. Your projects made with the full version will stay unharmed.
