It offers a gorgeous hi - fi ambience that no other can match. For decades, the underground spaces beneath the famous Capitol Tower in Los Angeles have provided this outstanding sound, loved by artists from Ray Charles to Muse. After years of research and close work with Capitol Studios, Universal Audio presents this remarkable plug - in. It comes in two versions: UAD Native, which runs on your Mac or PC without UA hardware, and Apollo Realtime & UAD - 2, which accelerates on Apollo interfaces and UAD - 2 hardware. You can easily capture iconic echoes as UA used 1960s technical diagrams to precisely emulate microphone and speaker setups. With the Position slider, you gain great control over spatial and time response, allowing you to reposition chamber mics. The plug - in uses UA's Dynamic Room Modeling technology, offering almost endless ambient possibilities. It also has creative features for modern DAW workflows and a sweepable filter to manage bass. And it features presets from top - notch Grammy - winning engineers and producers. Key features include authentic emulation of Capitol Studios' echo chambers, adding rich reverberation, creating new sounds, auditioning different configurations, using the entire signal chain, and quickly pulling up presets from famous artists, and it can be used with any audio interface.
Using the Capitol Chambers plug - in is easy. First, choose the version that suits your setup. If you don't have UA hardware, go for the UAD Native version which runs on your Mac or PC. If you have Apollo interfaces or UAD - 2 hardware, the Apollo Realtime & UAD - 2 version will give you an accelerated experience. To capture that iconic echo, you can select from the various microphone and speaker setups that are based on historic technical diagrams. Move the Position slider to adjust the spatial and time response, and reposition the chamber mics to create different effects. When it comes to the creative features, play around with the Pre - delay, Dry/Wet mix, and Decay controls to get the sound you want. Use the sweepable filter to cut down on muddy bass.
