Empirical Labs Complete Collection 2

The Empirical Labs Complete Collection 2 brings four of Dave Derr’s celebrated analogue designs into your DAW, made in close collaboration with the man himself. Professor Punch-Knuckles serves up three saturation flavours built around the Distressor’s distortion, with tone-shaping emphasis filters for drums, vocals and more. LilfrEQ packs eight processing sections into one warm, punchy equalizer, complete with de-essing, so you can retire a pile of separate plugins. Mike-E Comp and Trak Pak for Console 1 round out the set, adding compression and console-style workflow. The character is aggressive but never harsh at the extremes, delivering that coveted analogue tang heard on countless records. It suits rock, pop and electronic producers who want retro grit and modern polish in one package, and anyone mixing in FL Studio, Ableton or Logic on Windows.
