{"product_id":"psp-audioware-binamp-398496","title":"Binamp","description":"\u003ch3\u003eWhat PSP BinAmp Is For\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003ePSP BinAmp is a saturation and preamp emulation plug-in designed to add depth, thickness, and an analog signature to your tracks. Where a recording might sound too \"clean\" or linear, BinAmp adds tube-typed harmonic density, with gentle compression and warmth that helps a source stand out in the mix without necessarily increasing the perceived volume.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIts character is especially effective on drums (kick, snare, overheads, room), vocals, loops, electric pianos like Rhodes or Clavinet, as well as digital synths that quickly gain texture. It also works very well on guitars and basses, complementing an amp simulation, on a reamp bus, or simply to \"round off\" a DI and give it a more credible vintage color.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eMain Features\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ch4\u003eSaturation Inspired by a Legendary Preamp\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eAt the heart of PSP BinAmp is a Class A triode preamp emulation inspired by the Echorec 2, a magnetic drum delay machine renowned for its warm and musical sound. The goal here is not to reproduce a delay, but to capture the personality of its preamplification stage and its very distinctive grain, ideal for enriching a track without making it harsh.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eControl of Grain, Spectrum, and Level\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe workflow is straightforward: you increase the \u003cstrong\u003eDrive\u003c\/strong\u003e to generate saturation (with a range of +\/-20 dB), then adjust the \u003cstrong\u003eOutput\u003c\/strong\u003e (up to +\/-20 dB) to maintain a consistent level and objectively compare \"with\" or \"without.\" To shape the frequency response, you have a \u003cstrong\u003eHigh Pass\u003c\/strong\u003e filter (useful to avoid unnecessarily thickening the low end) and a \u003cstrong\u003eRolloff\u003c\/strong\u003e for high frequencies to soften a bright source or simulate an older sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eParallel Blend and Dynamic Management in the Mix\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe \u003cstrong\u003eBlend\u003c\/strong\u003e control allows mixing the saturated and dry signals, a powerful approach on drums, drum buses, vocals, or synths: you retain the attack and clarity of the source while adding body and \"glue.\" It's also an effective method to achieve present but controlled saturation without excessively squashing transients.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003ePad, Polarity, and Multi-Instance Coherence\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor very hot signals, a \u003cstrong\u003e-20 dB input PAD\u003c\/strong\u003e with output gain compensation facilitates adjustment without saturating too quickly. PSP BinAmp also offers separate \u003cstrong\u003epolarity\u003c\/strong\u003e buttons at input and output: useful for quickly checking phase interactions, especially in parallel processing, doubling, or multi-mic recordings. Finally, the \u003cstrong\u003eVariation\u003c\/strong\u003e parameter adds a welcome subtlety: it modifies individual behavior between channels and across different instances in a session, maintaining a more organic feel when using BinAmp on multiple tracks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch4\u003eAudio Quality and User Comfort\u003c\/h4\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe processing relies on high-quality algorithms, with \u003cstrong\u003einternal oversampling\u003c\/strong\u003e (quad sampling up to 192 kHz) to preserve a clean and detailed sound, even when your project runs at lower sample rates. Parameters benefit from \u003cstrong\u003esmoothing\u003c\/strong\u003e for fluid, click-free adjustments, and latency remains extremely low, making the plug-in enjoyable to use both in production and mixing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eTechnical specifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eType\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eFull software\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"flex:1 1 300px;width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDownloadable\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eYes\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:2rem\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMac\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003emacOS 10.12 to macOS 13 Ventura\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWindows\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eWindows 7 to Windows 11\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003emacOS\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eVST-2, VST-3, AU, AAX\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"flex:1 1 300px\"\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLatency\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e13 samples regardless of sample rate\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width:100%\"\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDrive control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e+\/-20 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n  \u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOutput control\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003ctd style=\"text-align:left\"\u003eup to +\/-20 dB\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"PSP Audioware","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":54360680235283,"sku":"398496","price":93.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0984\/0872\/6803\/files\/d1d51700e188df1d0403809c8aec1add1340c6bb_PSP_1143258.jpg?v=1788277891","url":"https:\/\/woodbrass.shop\/products\/psp-audioware-binamp-398496","provider":"Woodbrass.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
