Funkenschlag is a mono / stereo channel strip plug-in with three combinable tools that color the sound of your tracks.
The first part is a preamp based on a German tube preamp from the 1950s. It is used for harmonic tube distortion and offers two filters for selected high and low frequencies. The preamp section has an auto-trimmed output, so you do not add unwanted gain to your signal, just harmonic distortion to keep the compression from increasing.
The second part is a compressor and limiter based on a 1960s analog vintage device. With classic controls such as „Eingangspegel“, „Begrenzung“, „Arbeitspunkt“ und „Rückstellzeit“, you have a tonal range from subtle compression to heavy limiting of the signal.
The third section offers a graphic equalizer with selected frequencies for flexible sound design. The signal flow can be changed by switching the equalizer before or after the compressor / limiter. Each section of the channel strip can be turned on and off separately for even greater usability and control of CPU utilization when needed.
