Analog Digital Studio Hardware

Access Analog Provides a Remote Access Option for Studio Gear

— January 21, 2020 — Tech
Analog Matrix's plugin by Colorado-based company Access Analog provides real-time remote accessibility to real audio hardware. By modernizing traditional studio signal chains, its product provides musicians and recording engineers with the ability to use professional audio equipment with only a standard Internet connection.

By sending audio through a real analog hardware chain, an authentic tone can easily be achieved through true analog processing, which digital plugins can only emulate. While more gear continues to be added to the service, it currently includes equipment from many industry-leading companies, such as: Neve, SSL and Universal Audio.

More conveniently, the plugin's unique digital hardware processing rack allows users to easily customize their desired hardware order, to monitor and adjust settings in real time, and to save presets for recalling specific signal chains. Depending on the users' system requirements, sessions can be reserved along with the desired hardware units so that remote access can be established.

Access Analog's equipment reservations can be found on its website, with prices starting at $9.99 USD and up.
