A msterdam-based FabFilter’s increasing catalogue of head-turning products includes EQs and compressors that boast transparency and colour in equal measure. They’re ideal for mix engineers, while the company’s contemporary-sounding palette has proved a hit with composers and producers who like to apply effects and colouration as they go. The new update to its plug-in gas giant is capable of increased subtle colour, as well as crushing movement.
