UAD Manley Variable Mu Limiter Compressor Plug-In Trailer

Manley Variable Mu^® Limiter Compressor Plug-In.
Tube compression royalty for your mixes.

As Manley Labs' flagship compressor since 1994, the Variable Mu is a tube and transformer-driven classic that exudes hand-made craftsmanship. A gold standard among mixing and mastering engineers, the Variable Mu adds clarity and cohesion to stereo buses or your entire mix.

Developed under Manley Labs' rigorous scrutiny, the Manley Variable Mu Limiter Compressor plug-in is a thorough emulation of this legendary tube limiter, and is based on the coveted “6BA6 T-BAR Tube Mod” unit. Now, its famed sound is availableexclusively for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces.

Now You Can:

• Add definition and fidelity to individual tracks, stereo buses, or an entire mix
• • Glue together difficult mixes with signature Manley tube compression
  • • Link channels for a precise, perfectly matched stereo image
    • • Select from Left/Right or Mid/Side operation for precise control of stereo imaging
      • Use the plug-in-only Dry/Wet Mix control to easily dial-in parallel compression.
      • Manley Variable Mu^® Under the Hood
      • While the Manley Variable Mu uses the remote cut-off style gain reduction found in the Fairchild and other classic limiters, it has a sound and character all its own. Its classic dual-triode gain reduction design is constantly re-biased by the sidechain control voltages, creating a unique variable gain compressor with stunning transparency. This lets you treat source material with velvety-smooth gain reduction, while infusing warm harmonic content, free of audible compression artifacts.
      • King of the 2-Bus
      • The Manley Variable Mu Limiter Compressor plug-in can be used on single instruments such as bass or a lead vocal, or on subgroups like strings or horns. But its raison d'être is on the mix bus, where its expert features can unify your mixes with a rich, hi-fi fit and finish.
      • 
        
      • Powerful Controls
      • 
      • Parameter linking allows simultaneous adjustment of both channels with stereo signals. When unlinked, the plug-in's digital implementation of Mid/Side processing is actually improved over the hardware, providing phase accurate stereo imaging.
      • 
      • The High Pass Sidechain filter prevents compression response to frequencies lower than 100 Hz — letting you compress overheads, for example, while retaining powerful, punchy bottom-end.
      • 
      • Plug-in-only controls such as Dry/Wet Mix and Headroom give you more colors with which to paint your mixes. Dry/Wet Mix offers easy parallel compression — perfect for quickly polishing background vocals or a drum bus. Finally, the Headroom control lets you optimize the Variable Mu’s overall level to your playback system.
