Scheps Parallel Particles
Takeaways
- incorporates 4 different types of parallel processing (Sub, Air, Bite, Thick)
- each type can be turned on and off
- Sub (32Hz to 80Hz) and Air actually synthesize resonances in their respective frequency ranges that don’t exist in the source
- Bite can make things sound more aggressive, adding more energy and attack to transients
- Thick adds body, smoothing out the lower mids, sometimes giving the feeling that the mic is closer and the room ambience is darker
- the plugin is NOT about surgical tweaking, but all about attitude and the emotion you experience when turning the knobs (as much an attitude shaper as a tone shaper)
- the plugin can be put directly on a track, or on an aux track
- the input level sensitivity light should be solid YELLOW during the loudest part of the track (can also link with the output level to match gain)
- Thick and Bite are processed first, then Sub and Air are processed after that
