Description

Experience the legendary sound of the Brainworx bx_console Focusrite SC, a channel strip plugin that brings the iconic Focusrite Studio Console into your digital audio workstation. This plugin is a meticulous emulation of the original console designed by Rupert Neve for Sir George Martin, renowned for producing The Beatles. With only 10 consoles ever built, and only 9 still in existence, this ultra-rare piece of audio history is now accessible to producers and engineers worldwide.

Harnessing Brainworx’s proprietary Tolerance Modeling Technology (TMT), the bx_console Focusrite SC reproduces the subtle variances found in the original console’s channels, providing unparalleled depth, width, and punch in your mixes. Whether you’re aiming for the precision and musicality that made records for Green Day or No Doubt, or seeking the warmth and saturation of analog gear, this plugin delivers with authenticity and style.

The bx_console Focusrite SC is more than just a replication; it expands upon the original design with modern enhancements like a THD control for adding colorful saturation, a Virtual Gain control for analog noise simulation, and a Mix knob for blending processed and unprocessed signals. Dive into a plethora of presets to jumpstart your creative process and sculpt your sound with the same tools that shaped countless hit records.

  • Endorsed and approved by Focusrite

I work a lot with mix busses in my DAW and I love the Focusrite Console, it just does the job and sounds great. Both modules are easily to adjust and work together perfectly. The sound is fantastic, the EQs don't get harsh or muddy at any point. You can make sounds shine in the mix in seconds; also warming up bass sounds and getting a tight and punchy low end is done quick and easily. Same goes if you want to get a vocal smooth and in-your-face. I like that you can get both - a clean and tight sound - but also a very analogue one. Great to have this in my setup - and it’s fun to work with!

I’ve been waiting to see this for a long time; the few times I’ve used a Focusrite console I was blown away by the musicality, the sound, color and character of it. The ISA110 (designed by Rupert Neve) quickly became my favorite EQ. The bx_console Focusrite SC faithfully captures the essence of all the things I like about the Focusrite console. This channel strip is going to see a lot of use in my mixes from now on.
