Slate Digital has released the VCC RC-Tube, an authentic emulation of a classic 1950′s all tube broadcast console. With two separate plug-ins intended to be placed on channel inserts or as the first insert on your master fader, this plugin package promises to recreate the sound of a vintage tube mixer, giving your mix a rich, fat, warm, and deep sound that until now, was unattainable with a 100% digital mixer.

Groove Machine features five hybrid synthesizers, eight 4-layer sampler channels and twelve FX, per-step automation of everything and a whole lot of groove mayhem.
