Get classic analog studio sound with authentic tape and summing extensions.
With the LUNA Analog Essentials bundle you get four pillars of professional analog recording—Neve and API analog summing, and integrated Studer and Ampex multitrack tape—with huge savings. Plus, you get the UAD-2 plug-in versions of Studer and Ampex tape machines.
Neve Summing
A major ingredient behind countless influential records like Nirvana's Nevermind and Queen's Jazz, Neve 80 series consoles are without equal. Developed in partnership with AMS Neve, the Neve Summing Extension emulates the entire summing circuit of an iconic Neve 80 series console—including its coveted 1272 bus amplifiers, giving your LUNA mixes all the color and three-dimensional nonlinearities of Neve's most cherished analog console.
API Summing
From Stevie Wonder's Talking Book and Fleetwood Mac's Rumours to Radiohead's Hail to the Thief, the mid-forward punch of API's classic analog consoles breathe life into your mixes. Developed in partnership with API, the API Summing Extension emulates the 2520 op amp and custom output transformer-based summing amps found in legendary API consoles—giving your LUNA mixes the attitude and tone of API's esteemed analog desks.
Studer Analog Tape
Producers have long gravitated to the warm analog sound, solid low end and musical presence of the Studer A800. With LUNA, use the Studer A800 as a LUNA Extension, and get tape character on every audio and instrument track, easily tweaking settings across all channels. As you build up your mix, you'll hear the cumulative "cohesiveness" of mixing from magnetic tape. Plus, you can add analog complexity by mix and matching up to four tape machines, using different tape formulas and per track controls.
Ampex ATR-102 Mastering Tape Recorder
The perfect complement to the workhorse Studer A800, the ATR 102 Mastering Tape Recorder adds the final “analog polish” to your mixes. Since its inception, this legendary tape machine has turned recordings into records with its low-end punch and musical tape saturation. Using the ATR 102 as a LUNA Extension, get instant, album-ready Ampex tape tones on LUNA's master fader and buses with all the authentic dynamics, tone and saturation characteristics of the original analog hardware.
