SoundToys has made a few announcements at AES. First, they’re previewing their next plugin, the analog input channel modeler called Juice.

A preliminary view of SoundToys' next plug-in, Juice.

Folks at AES can get a limited sneak peek of Juice, which features analog emulations of classic input channels from highly sought after gear and consoles, at the SoundToys booth, # 719.

SoundToys also announced the pending release of new Artist Series preset expanders from Tchad Blake, Peter Wade and Morgan Page.

Known for his use of saturation and distortion in his mixes, Grammy-winning mixer/producer/engineer Tchad Blake (Peter Gabriel, Suzanne Vega, Sheryl Crow) will be sharing his custom presets (for the first time ever) for SoundToys’ analog saturation modeling plugin, Decapitator. Blake derived these presets during his mix of the new Black Keys record, Brothers.

Next, remixer/producer Morgan Page (La Roux, Tegan & Sara, Madonna) takes the SoundToys plug-ins through their paces to deliver an extensive remix preset expander that will give you some of his favorite patches and let you expand from there.

And producer/mixer/composer/artist, Peter Wade, brings a “twisted pop sensibility” to presets for PanMan, FilterFreak, Crystallizer, PhaseMistress, Tremolator and EchoBoy. Also included are custom Decapitator presets from his studio cohort/engineer-in-training, Emmett Farley.

Wade, a Grammy winning producer, songwriter, engineer and half of electronic duo MNDR, co-penned/produced Mark Ronson’s recent top-ten single “Bang Bang Bang,” in addition to producing and writing Melanie Fiona’s “Monday Morning.”He works out of his LaBronze Johnson Studios in NYC.
