The Focusrite Plug-in Suite offers a comprehensive set of EQ, Compression, Reverb, and Gating plug-ins designed to enhance both tracking and mixing workflows. Each plug-in comes equipped with a wide range of factory presets tailored for various popular sound sources, providing an excellent starting point for music producers and engineers. Users can easily refine these presets by adjusting parameters to match their specific needs, with the option to save and recall custom settings for future projects.

Modeled after Focusrite’s renowned hardware, the Compressor and Gate plug-ins capture the classic vintage optical sound of the 1960s with precision. These plug-ins replicate the unique tone of Focusrite’s custom optos, tuned by ear to ensure authentic analog character. The Gate plug-in offers flexible operation modes, including stereo and dual mono, allowing one signal to trigger the gating of another, which opens up creative possibilities such as tightening bass lines or sculpting complex rhythmic patterns.

The EQ module faithfully reproduces the signature curves of the original Focusrite ISA EQ, delivering a rich and balanced tonal response across the entire frequency spectrum. Its six-band layout includes shelving filters for high and low frequencies, parametric controls for midrange bands, and dedicated high and low pass filters, all designed for intuitive use. Complementing the suite, the Reverb plug-in provides high-quality algorithmic reverb with simple controls over room size, pre-filter, and air, enabling quick access to natural and spacious reverberation effects.
