I've tried that anyway and it didn't fix it. Since it's happening in multiple songs, I don't feel it's a temp issue that can be resolved by simply re-instantiating the plugin. But I'm curious if someone else can replicate this. I may be able to screen cap it and show it. I tested this on multiple songs and, while seemingly random at times, it is consistent. The VCC comes as two independent plug-ins, the Virtual Channel for individual track processing, and the Virtual Mixbuss for stereo bus processing.
SLATE VCC PROBLEMS SOFTWARE
This eventually happens to ALL of the tracks. Slate Digital VCC Virtual Console Collection 2.0 Available for download, the Slate Digital Virtual Console Collection, or VCC, is software intended for mixing engineers.It lets you get analog console tone in the digital realm. Compared to Waves NLS, my opinion is that Slate VCC performs better in the low-end department but has a tendency to narrow the stereo panorama just outside the phantom centre. After saving and going and changing a few other things and save again, I go back to the other tracks that I changed and they have reverted back to RC Tube. There are a few alternatives, Slate Digital VCC being the closest contender in terms of features and console models, and it even simulates crosstalk between bus channels.
I'm currently having an issue where I have VCC inserted into VMR and select Brit 4K G (or any of them other than RC Tube). Were evaluating the latest version (1.2.3) and were pleased to report that it worked without a hitch for us.
These emulations are sonically indistinguishable from the original desks they model, so your mixes will come together quicker, feel more even and exciting, and require less work than ever before. In the meantime, I figured I would reach out here. Virtual Console Collection (VCC) has been a long time in development, and though it finally made it out of the gates in March 2011, there were teething problems, with much bug-busting still to be done. Virtual Console Collection contains emulations of six classic inline recording consoles, including the most sought-after models from Britain and the US. If you're still getting a handle on mixing, you'd be better off investing in bread-and-butter plug-ins first, such as quality EQ, compression and reverb.įor more experienced engineers looking to take their mixes to the next level, though, VCC could be revelatory, and we have to praise Slate Digital for bringing a new level of nuance and flexibility to the 'console in the box' concept.I have already reached out to the Slate support and am waiting on someone to get back to me. We should point out, though, that VCC isn't a magic bullet that'll make mediocre mixes sound majestic. In use, we found VCC very rewarding and with a valve desk model in development, there's clearly more to come. I am an AVID Steven Slate Drum user, and LOVE that drum system. Just wondered if there were any Nuendoites out there using it and have any thoughts about it. However, the treble sounds excellent in the 8x oversampling mode. Been curious about the SS VCC for some time.
SLATE VCC PROBLEMS PATCH
They offered me a refund and said there’s a patch coming for the VCC next month. Note that the MixBuss plug-in is more CPU-intensive and that oversampling will increase the CPU load further. And them go into my computer via TeamViever and solve the problem. On our four-core Intel Xeon 3GHz-equipped Mac, running 64 Virtual Channels brought the CPU meter up to the halfway mark. On the downside, CPU usage can be considerable. The Neve also noticeably enhances the bass. Sonically, the Trident offers the least hi-fi sound (and most hiss), with the API crisp and upfront, while the Neve handles extreme signal levels with the most ease. As you drive levels, the differences become more obvious, with the SSL and Trident being the most coloured. This is to be expected considering that real consoles are typically designed to be as clean and transparent as their analogue circuitry allows. Still, at regular levels, we found that using the SSL channel on a drum kit with a Neve-treated string section was practically indistinguishable from a fully SSL setup. One of VCC's biggest novelties is the ability to mix and match channels from different desk types. Like an analogue desk, you have to push levels hard before saturation is audible. However, the accumulated effect from sticking it on all of them is of subtle enhancement and gentle dynamic control, making it easier to achieve a smooth mix where everything sits in its place. If you drop VCC on just one channel, you almost certainly won't hear any difference.
