FABRIK C STUDIO

Introduction

Fabrik C Studio is based on the innovative Meta Intuitive Navigation Technology (MINT™) that redefines the way you use professional audio plug-ins for professional results. We have integrated a simple yet highly effective and intuitive approach to working with audio, and the result is a user-interface with few handles that are effective but simple to use. Often people think that if you want to create professional results the process has to be tedious and complex – we don’t agree. The Fabrik plug-ins introduce a new way of working with audio, and they build on proven and award-winning TC technology, ensuring the highest level of audio quality.

Fabrik C Studio is a full-blown channel strip plug-in with EQ, De-Esser, 3-band Compressor and Limiter in one single plug- in. With MINT™ you have total control of all parameters, using only a few dedicated knobs. The EQ section is a 4-band parametric EQ with high/low-pass filters – choose between 4 different filter types. Based on no-nonsense design, the De- Esser is controlled using a single fader.

With a built-in 3-band intelligent compression technique the Compressor is not only one of the best compressors available,

-it also gives you the means to avoid bad side effects compared to traditional compression. Combined with the Limiter the compression section can be used in a musical way without worrying about overshoots.
