YEEEEEEEEEESH! these guys are on a roll right now...



Overview:

Fully endorsed and approved by Mäag Audio. Modeled by Brainworx.

The original MAGNUM-K™ hardware is a single-channel Compressor built to complement the audio engineer’s craft. It is comprised of two serial compressor sections (MAGNUM COMP and K COMP), a very musical Parallel EQ (with LMF and Mäag's signature AIR BAND®), plus a Soft Limit (soft limiter).

In cooperation with Brainworx this design was turned into a convincing plugin, whereas the concept was taken to the next level. BX added L/R and M/S Stereo capabilities, injected 20 different, analog channels utilizing their patent-pending TMT (Tolerance Modeling Technology) and several convenient plugin-only features like M/S Stereo Width, Mono-Maker etc.

Whether putting the finishing touches on a 2-mix or making a vocal sound bigger than life without taking your head off; the MAGNUM-K will help elevate your craft.

Welcome to compression nirvana and sonic bliss. Welcome to the Mäag Audio MAGNUM-K Compressor where bigger sound, quicker workflow, and outstanding control were designed to help you achieve your audio goals.

BIGGER SOUND

The MAGNUM-K Compressor helps quieter sonic signatures become as big as you want them to be while simultaneously reigning in those louder, more dominant tones.

QUICKER WORKFLOW

Tuning a MAGNUM-K Compressor is quick and easy, reducing your overall workflow time.

OUTSTANDING CONTROL

The MAGNUM-K offers outstanding control from its transparent INPUT ATTN (attenuator) and INPUT GAIN controls, to its SIDECHAIN capabilities and MAKEUP GAIN.

TMT INCLUDED

The Mäag MAGNUM-K offers 20 different channels, made possible by TMT.

TMT takes the real-world tolerances of audio components found in audio circuits into account and offers various channels of analog audio which have realistic variances in frequency response, time constants in dynamic sections, etc.

TMT is the same ground-breaking technology that can be found in the console emulations by Brainworx (SSL 4000 E & G, for example).

The result is digital audio that sounds as analog as possible, whereas even the L/R channels of a stereo instance will react slightly different, giving you wide and realistic analog sound in your computer!

Features:

• 2 compressor sections, Magnum Comp and K Comp
• Musical-sounding parallel EQ with LMF and Mäag's signature Air Band
• Soft Limiter
• Faithfully modelled, endorsed and approved by Mäag Audio
• Stereo version in addition to the original mono version
• DRY/WET parameter for parallel mix
• 20 different, analog TMT channels
• M/S mode inclusive Solo M and Solo S

Hmmm... I know how to spend my next Heavy Hitter voucher.

Magnum? It sounds like an italian ice cream.

UPDATE
No email about it. I suppose PA is preparing a special offer.

hell, i'm thinking about opening a new account & starting another PickPack!

a mixing buddy of mine told me about the hardware a year or so ago, and i remember thinking, "it would be cool if plugin alliance turns this into a VST..."

me last night visiting the PA website:

 

My wallet will hate me

 

To me it sounds like a dildo... or this one... or this one...

 

These are much better... and tasty.

 

dunno what you talkin bout

 

The word Magnum will always remind me of this:

 

Why, you can buy it with your voucher or any discounts, it doesnt affect your pickpack.

 

fully aware of that, BUT there are some other plugins they have that i don't own yet...soooooo maybe i'm just weighing out my options & thinking out loud...?

could i buy this, and the 7 other plugins i want with vouchers or other schemes? sure! budget dictates what i decide to do though, and starting another PickPack is an option for me.

i like looking at many ways to skin the cat, if possible.

Well in that case, wanting several plugins makes more sense indeed.
Plugin Alliance is most definitely on fire.

49$ using a voucher of 50$ ... worth the price imho. And you just have to declare a US address in order not to pay VAT even with a Paypal account with a foreign address... so...
