dj gear. ~ Digidesign MS448 Focusrite Forte Million Dollar EQs! The Focusrite Forte Suite is a channel strip plug-in (TDM, RTAS) for Pro Tools based on the now legendary Focusrite Forte recording console of the mid-80s (original price for Forte console: $1.5 million). ~ These modules comprise a host of powerful vintage processing blocks, including the original six-band EQ, compressor, gate and expander. ~ In addition the plug-in is scalable, including a complete channel strip, a stereo version of each module as well as a variety of set-ups for 5.1 processing, all supporting TDM, RTAS and Audio Suite formats. ~ Forte Suite's clean and well-organized user interface has been designed to capture exactly the look of these vintage classics, vertically racked within a mahogany case. ~ The control sets for all the modules are an exact replication of the originals, from frequency selection to side-chain and insert functionality - no dial has been left unturned. ~ In addition, graphical representations of every processing block complement the hardware, aiding in both the operation and visualization of each. ~ Focusrite d2 and d3 rewrote the 'rule book' for plug-ins and provide precise models of the Red Series signature sound while introducing the simple but novel concept of the GUI representing the original front panel. ~ A concept subsequently imitated by countless others. ~ Focusrite chose to keep these plug-ins exclusive to the Pro Tools platform, as only Pro Tools-HD Accel systems have the power to accurately represent the originals. ~ Focusrite has chosen to continue this precedence with Forte, taking full advantage of the awesome power of Pro Tools-HD Accel, and it's 192kHz-processing capabilities. ~ With Forte Suite, Focusrite is once again rewriting the rules and setting a new standard for vintage plug-in technology. ~ lighting; dj gear; drum sticks; orchesta percussion; electric drums; acoustic drums; percussion; drums; midi; sound modules; groove stations; arrangers; portable keyboards; digital pianos; workstations; synths; electric bass; bass; amps; acoustic guitar; electric guitar; musical instruments;
