The Avalon VT-737 Tube Channel Strip plug-in is a renowned tool that has shaped the sound of contemporary pop, hip-hop, and R&B music. Emulating the acclaimed hardware used by industry icons like Jay-Z, Beyonce, and The Rolling Stones, this plug-in delivers polished, radio-ready tones with exceptional clarity and presence. Designed exclusively for UAD hardware and UA Audio Interfaces, it faithfully reproduces the signature tube mic preamp, optical compressor, and four-band EQ of the original Avalon VT-737, bringing legendary warmth and detail to vocals, bass, and more.

Utilizing UA's groundbreaking Unison technology, the plug-in replicates the hardware’s mic preamp impedance and gain characteristics, providing a highly authentic analog feel and response. The dynamics section features a smooth, transparent optical compressor that excels on a variety of sources, allowing for precise control without unwanted distortion. An exclusive fast mode expands the compressor’s capabilities, offering new creative options during mixdown. The four-band EQ includes a unique high-frequency 'air' band, adding delicate brightness and sheen to instruments and vocals alike.

The Avalon VT-737 plug-in also offers flexibility in signal routing, with the EQ positioned either before or after compression and mid bands that can serve as sidechain filters for refined dynamic shaping. This channel strip provides the same rich tonal character and dynamic control of the original hardware, making it an essential addition for engineers seeking to add professional gloss and depth to their mixes. Compatible with all UAD hardware, it delivers the iconic Avalon sound without leaving the digital environment, ensuring your productions stand out with clarity and warmth.
