RC-20 Retro Color from XLN Audio is a plug-in designed to recreate the warmth, textures, and character of yesteryear's analog hardware, with all its imperfections and flaws. Powered by the company's Flux Engine, it features six FX modules that emulate the sound of vinyl records, magnetic tape, and VHS by adding analog-style fluctuations to your individual tracks or mixes.
Effects include noise, wobble, and dropouts. Raw tube distortion and bit reduction can be applied to your drums and bass to add crunch, while the space and chorus effects can take your guitar into the lush world of the 60's and 70's modulation.
RC-20 Retro Color comes pre-loaded with a variety of presets for drums, keys, guitars, bass, and post production, and offers musicians/producers a rich palette of vintage colors for blending analog-style recording with modern digital productions.
