AlexB Introduces Neev 81 Sidecar Console And Chandly Ltd Germanium Libraries
AlexB is back with two more heavy hitters – The Neev 81 Sidecar Console, and the Chandly Ltd Germanium Compressor.
AlexB Introduces Neev 81 Sidecar Console And Chandly Ltd Germanium Libraries
As some of us know, AlexB is responsible for these exquisitely sampled libraries that operate exclusively with the Nebula VST environment. The sampled libraries are based off of boutique quality analog gear, allowing users to run any source in their DAW through the selected sample. The effect produces a “natural extension of the original audio (device), gluing your tracks in the mix with an analog vibe.”
The Neev 81 Sidecar Console is based off of eight vintage mic preamps and equalizers from the 70s (Neve 1081), and the Chandly Ltd Germanium is based directly off of the original class-A compressor.
The Neev 81 Sidecar Console is available now for around $54, and the Chandly Ltd Germanium is available for around $32 at today’s exchange rates. Here are more details on the new sampled libraries from AlexB:

Neev 81 Sidecar Console
Vintage Submix
Custom designed and hand-made by AlexB, the sidecar console is based on eight legendary vintage Class AB mic-preamps and equalizers which come from the 70’s era “with a lot of character” (Neve 1081). The summing amp has a vintage design of pure Class A with Carnhill transformers which gives that “in your face” Neev sound.
A professional studio requested me to build this sidecar console for their dance-techno production, choosing the rich, dynamics and fat sound it has. Its high bandwidth pure audio path, superior dynamics and greater control make the Neev 81 Sidecar Console the first choice for recording and mixing Rock, Pop, Dance and more.
Chandly Ltd Germanium
So many colors.
Chandly Ltd Germanium is a class A compressor with transformers, the compression circuit uses FET gain reduction element. The compression curve, the knee, can be selected by various diode combination and the tone can be selected from flat, smooth and driven.
Chandly Ltd Germanium manages to sound with character without being weak and harsh. There is little apparent colouration, just a maturity of tone. This library programs is the result of more than 300GB of sampled data from the original hardware.
