{"product_id":"waves-abbey-road-reel-adt-1","title":"Waves Abbey Road Reel ADT","description":"\u003cp\u003eReel ADT is the only plugin that delivers the authentic tape delay-based Artifical Double Tracking effect, created by Abbey Road Studios’ legendary technician Ken Townsend to meet the recording needs of John Lennon and the Beatles.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMany modern doublers simply delay the audio compared to the original track, in order to thicken the source. But with ADT, sometimes the doubled sound was ahead of the reference track, and sometimes it lagged behind, with constant fluctuation keeping the doubling effect richer and more interesting rhythmically.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eReel ADT delivers the depth of this original effect. With two modeled tape machines (source and double)—each delivering separate saturation, wow \u0026amp; flutter, pitch fluctuations, and more—Reel ADT creates the impression of two truly distinct vocal tracks, out of one vocal take.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eDoubling That Dances Around the Source\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith Abbey Road’s technique, the doubled part could go ahead of the original source—or behind. The doubled part’s position could also fluctuate over time, for effects ranging from natural to surprising. Reel ADT accurately reproduces this time-shifting mechanism, to thicken vocals in an authentic-sounding way, or add lush movement to stereo synth patches.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eThe Original Varispeed Effect\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe ADT sound also came from the unpredictable speed changes due to manual “Varispeed” control. Members of the Beatles would often control or “play” the Varispeed control to get the ultimate sound effect performance. Reel ADT can use manual or MIDI control, LFO with 5 waveforms (including random), or tempo sync.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTrue Tape Technology\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eReel ADT models the sound of the tape, as well as tape recorder mechanics. Drive the decks hard for tape saturation, and introduce wow and flutter to create even more variations within the tape’s audio path. ADT adds warmth and movement to your tracks in a totally unique way, breathing life into your mixes.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDelivers Abbey Road’s complete vocal double-tracking process\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTape speed control can be manual, LFO, synched to host, or random\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVariable delay range to spread doubled parts wider or narrower\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 independent tape decks with separate pan, saturation, phase\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLow-latency version for live performance with delay-only ADT\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDesigned in close collaboration with Abbey Road Studios\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModels the iconic tape recorders still being used at Abbey Road\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVarispeed fluctuates the delay speed of the doubled parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eYour choice of manual and automated Varispeed control\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMIDI-assignable manual control for maximum authenticity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\u003cp\u003eRequirements:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003emac\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ecpu\u003c\/strong\u003e:Intel or Silicon Architecture\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eram\u003c\/strong\u003e:8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003edisk\u003c\/strong\u003e:16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eversion\u003c\/strong\u003e:macOS Catalina 10.15, Big Sur 11, Monterey 12, Ventura 13, Sonoma 14\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eadditional_requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e:Minimum: 1024x768\u003cbr\u003eRecommended: 1280x1024 \/ 1600x1024\u003cbr\u003eUSB displays are not supported as the primary display.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ewindows\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ecpu\u003c\/strong\u003e:X64 compatible Intel or AMD CPU\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eram\u003c\/strong\u003e:8\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003edisk\u003c\/strong\u003e:16\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eversion\u003c\/strong\u003e:Windows 10 64 bit and Windows 11\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eadditional_requirements\u003c\/strong\u003e:Minimum: 1024x768\u003cbr\u003eRecommended: 1280x1024 \/ 1600x1024\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eVideos:\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G-S0om6EsOA\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Waves","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56119420682572,"sku":"CHO-1178-2754","price":38.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0924\/4652\/3724\/files\/reel-adt_e7b4a919-ae02-4d64-ba23-8aa120acf772.jpg?v=1764473577","url":"https:\/\/pluginbay.net\/products\/waves-abbey-road-reel-adt-1","provider":"Pluginbay","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
