Manny Marroquin Delay
Manny Marroquin on the MM Delay: œDelay is all about depth. It' one of the key elements in almost every mix I do. Plus, it enhances the groove, and creates layers of sound which can make a mix more exciting and multi-dimensional. It usually takes me five or six different plugins to get me those delay sounds; I wanted to put them all into one. We™ve included all the little extras that I always use to make the sound even more interesting: Some nice reverb, a little bit of distortion, a doubler/harmonizer to fatten things up plus a phaser, when you want to add some movement or really go wild.

Manny Marroquin Distortion
Manny Marroquin on the MM Distortion: œOne of the things I also love is distortion. Whether or not it' audible, sometimes I just want to feel it. By adding just a touch of it, it will help get me that. And I™m not just talking just about guitars, either. A little bit of distortion on vocals, Rhodes, Wurlis, etc. can really add a lot of attitude and edge. So whether you like it ˜crunchy-style™ or ˜down-and-dirty,™ this Distortion is a simple but very effective plugin.

Manny Marroquin EQ
Manny Marroquin on the MM EQ: œWhen I sit down to do a mix, and I™m looking to do some creative equalization, as opposed to doing some ˜clean up,™ I always seem to end up reaching for the same frequencies. That' when I go for one of my six go-to equalizers, depending on the frequency: SSL 9080 XL K for its high and low pass filters; Quad 8 or Neve 1073 for the low end; Quad 8 or Motown for lows/low mids; Motown, 1073 and API 550B for mids/high mids; and Avalon 2055 for its silky high end. Waves and I captured the best of each of my favorite EQs “ and put them together in one plugin.

Manny Marroquin Reverb
Manny Marroquin on the MM Reverb: œFor my Reverb plugin, we modeled the very best reverbs in my room, 18 of my favorites: Six different reverbs, with three different room sizes for each. We also included some EQ and compression, which I always use to shape the reverbs so they sit perfectly within the mix. Plus, we added what I like to call the ˜fun™ section, with phaser and distortion. For example, sometimes I™ll send something to a really big reverb, then add phase and distortion to get some really unique tails. With this plugin, it' all right there in front of you.

Manny Marroquin Tone Shaper
Manny Marroquin on the MM Tone Shaper: œParallel compression plays a huge part in my mixing technique. It adds richness and really brings out the full character of almost any sound and helps different elements stand out within a mix. Tone Shaper is a parallel compressor with four separate bands plus EQ and a few other ˜secret ingredients™ that make it quick and easy to change tonality of a track to match your mix. I™ve found that when a mix is like 80% there, instead of EQ or volume, adding the Tone Shaper makes things jump out, without sacrificing space in the mix.

Manny Marroquin Triple D
Manny Marroquin on the MM Triple D: œGetting rid of œboxy sound, harshness and sibilance can take a lot of work “ if you want to do it right, which means not EQing things out and carving certain frequency ranges completely out of your signal. The Triple D plugin makes it easy to remove those unpleasant, even painful, frequencies. So why is it called œTriple D, you may ask? Here' why: DeBoxy, to remove œboxy sound from the low mid area; DeHarsher, to eliminate harshness in the mids/high mids; and DeEsser for all those high ˜sss™ and ˜shh™ sounds. With Triple D, it' a breeze to get your vocals sounding the way they should.
