Shy Audio Shy 90s Channel v1.3.0

Shy 90s Channel is a channel strip plugin that brings the character of classic ’90s consumer mixing desks to your DAW. It combines a broad EQ, a drive section, and a signal module to add grit and vibe to your tracks. The EQ offers a switchable high shelf with two behaviors, a powerful parametric mid band, and a switchable low shelf for either broad shaping or focused bass. The drive section pushes any source into intense distortion while preserving low-end, with frequency-dependent harmonics up to +30 dB and a unique blend of even and odd harmonics. A ‘Flux’ control introduces slight L/R variations for an analog feel. The signal module includes 12 dB/oct low and high cut filters and a phase-aligned dry/wet knob for blending the processed and clean signal. Ideal for hobby producers looking to add lo-fi grit, saturation, and character to drums, synths, or full mixes, especially in genres like lo-fi hip-hop, indie, and electronic music. Compatible with VST3 and AAX on Windows.
