BABY AUDIO PARALLEL AGGRESSOR | The ultimate punch tool. Audio plugin for Mac/PC.

MAIN FEATURES

• Parallel Aggressor is based on this simple concept of parallel processing, combine the three signals to squeeze every sonic drop out of your track

• The plugin divides your audio into three equal parts

• Dry – Your original signal

• Spank – Duplicate heavily compressed

• Heat – Heavily saturated duplicate

• 25 presets created by BABY Audio and some friends from the house

Unlock unparalleled powers.

Parallel processing plays a key role in achieving a “big” mix sound. By processing multiple copies of the same track and mixing them together, you can add more detail to a mix – more naturally.

It's like teamwork: multiple copies of the same track – each focused on doing a specific job – can achieve more than a single copy being processed to death on its own.

Parallel Aggressor is based on this simple concept. The plugin divides your audio into three equal parts:

Dry – Your original signal
Spank – Duplicate heavily compressed
Heat – Heavily saturated duplicate

Then combine the three signals to squeeze every sonic drop into your track.

Workflow.

• Balance the three parallel signals from the main level mixer.
• Use the Spank and Heat buttons to access the firepower of the parallel engines.
• Meters help set the right amount of Spank and Heat for any audio signal.
• (Use the main Spank/Heat buttons until the meters peak just before the orange line).
• Style knobs inject desirable sonic flavors into parallel engines. Engage several at once.
• Solo knobs allow you to monitor each parallel signal individually for fine-tuning purposes.
• Turn on auto gain to get consistent output from the plug-in, roughly matching the input level.
• Output sets the global output level (post-auto gain).
• Switch between three different color schemes by clicking the top left icon.
• Great sound – great simplicity.

You're probably already using parallel processing on all of your mixes. But the Parallel Aggressor was designed to deliver maximum sonic impact with the lowest track count possible. No extra busses or mixing faders are needed. As with all of our plugins, we designed Parallel Aggressor to inject its own sonic flavor into your mix. The plugin is designed to take small decisions internally, leaving the big decisions up to you.

PARALLEL MECHANISM 1: SPANK

Spank offers an addictive compression algorithm designed to adapt to your audio signal. improvements in sound quality, signal detection and flexibility.

Style injection buttons: Extra Punch, Extra

PARALLEL MECHANISM 2: HEAT

Heat is a hot saturation algorithm, modeled analogue, with an aggressive bite. It is based on our Super VHS tape saturator, but has been rewritten and optimized for the Parallel Aggressor version.

Style injection buttons: Extra Hot, Tone, HP Filter, LP Filter.

AUTOMATIC GAIN:

Automatic gain ensures that the combined output of the plugin's three signals approximately matches the input/dry level. This allows you to experiment with different internal mix balances while maintaining a consistent output from the plug-in.

PRESETS:

The Parallel Aggressor comes loaded with 25 presets created by BABY Audio and some friends in the house:

– KurtCurt (Grammy-nominated engineer for 2 Chainz, Diamond D, Wiz Khalifa).
– Anthony Saffery (producer of Billboard nº 1 in Portugal. The Man, Dirty Vegas, Cornershop).
