X-Saturator and X-ValveComp are £69 GBP/89 EUR/$119 USD each, with an introductory price of £49 GBP/59 EUR/$85 USD for the first 30 days only. X-Phase is available for purchase for £199 GBP/249 EUR/$329 USD. The compressor can be switched between Peak or RMS modes and has a full set of standard controls. The valve emulation stage sits after the compressor in the signal path and adds a variable degree of primarily 2nd order harmonic saturation and distortion that thickens and colours the sound. X-ValveComp is a fully-featured mono or stereo channel compressor with a full set of classic channel compressor controls and an added ‘valve’ emulation stage.As drive levels are increased so too is the level of distortion until at high drive levels heavy distortion occurs. At low drive settings the distortion is mild and can add gentle warming to help instruments sit nicely in a mix or to add a little extra edge to help instruments cut through a mix. It is an emulation of an analogue circuit that introduces either 2nd order valve style or 3rd order transistor style distortion or a blend of the two. X-Saturator delivers a stunning range of analogue style distortion effects.This is useful for fixing phase problems with microphones when recording: eg overheads causing phase problems when mixed with close mic’s. Unlike other filter types where the gain of selected frequencies is altered, with an All-pass Filter the gain remains unchanged throughout the signal. It enables the user to apply a phase shift (sometimes called a phase offset) at a specified frequency within a signal. X-Phase is an All-pass Filter plug-in that offers the user manual control and benchmark audio quality.SSL has also announced a summer release for AAX native versions of the entire suite. To coincide with the new plug-in release SSL has migrated the entire Duende Native plug-in collection to the iLok 2 copy protection system. The new plug-ins are available now via the SSL web site.

The three new plug-ins complement the existing range with two plug-ins (X-Saturator & X-ValveComp) designed to bring some analogue saturation and distortion emulation to your digital DAW and the third (X-Phase) delivering high precision frequency specific phase correction. The superior audio quality and deep feature set of the SSL Duende Native plug-in range has earned the respect of a very discerning clientele through the years.
