Leapwing presents its first signature plugin crafted in collaboration with the legendary producer and engineer Al Schmitt. Drawing from decades of his workflow, gear, and production techniques, the plugin captures the unique sonic traits that define his iconic sound. Special attention was given to subtle harmonic textures, echo effects, compression, and equalization to authentically replicate the qualities found in Al’s mixes.

This plugin features six specialized profiles tailored to vocal, piano, bass, brass, strings, and mix bus applications. Each profile offers distinct sonic characteristics and adjustable parameters that reflect Al Schmitt’s approach to handling different instruments and elements within a mix. The design focuses on simplicity, providing minimal controls that enable users to achieve the desired tonal qualities quickly and intuitively.

By combining expert knowledge with streamlined functionality, this signature plugin offers a powerful yet accessible solution for shaping rich, polished sounds. Whether shaping individual instruments or enhancing entire mixes, the plugin delivers the essence of Al Schmitt’s production style, making it a valuable tool for producers and engineers aiming to elevate their audio projects.
