This free LE version does not feature the
Threshold and Mix knobs or their functions: it has a fixed threshold
(-25 dB) and its set as 100% wet effect (you canīt blend it with the
original signal). Use it to process any sound that needs dynamic
processing. Use the side-chain feature to process only certain
frequencies, leaving the other frequencies unprocessed. And last but not
least , with the M/S feature, you can process dynamically only the Mid,
the Sides or even achieve the famous NY parallel compression (50/50) but
in M/S!
RubyTube simulates tube preamps for those that
can’t forget. If you are missing that subtle sparkling and compression
that you get when using ancient audio equipment, RubyTube might be
something for you. And like many other good things in life, RubyTube is
free. RubyTube is a real time, digital tube amp simulator. RubyTube
simulates the saturation effect that can be found in audio equipment
with vacuum tubes. This effect is usually hardly noticable but it is
responsible for the classic tube sound. Sometimes its just a sparkle on
the voice and a slight compression of drums and bass that makes the
difference between a neutral recording and a warm and full sounding
song.
