The best Vertigo sound in a single channel strip. Vertigo is renowned for its high-end production equipment, which is hand-assembled in Germany using the finest modern analog components. Praised by professionals for its precision and unique tonal qualities, you’ll find Vertigo gear in the studios of greats like Grammy Award winners Craig Bauer and Dave Cobb. The VSS-2 takes the best parts of its most famous studio gear and meticulously models them into one complete, discrete channel strip.
Premium Signal Chain, Optimized Workflow
The VSS-2 takes the filters from the VSE-2, the quad VCA compressor from the VSC-3, the discrete Gyrator EQ from the VSE-4, and the tubes from the VSM-4.
All of these combine into a carefully curated signal chain that’s on par with the best of high-end analog consoles.
It takes your sound, cleans it, smooths it out, enhances the tone, and adds warmth. It’s perfect for tightening up vocals, adding punch to drums, or breathing life into flat mixes—a complete Vertigo mixing console in a single plug-in.
Four smooth sections for cleaner, warmer, more dynamic mixes
Section 1 VSE-2 – Roll off unwanted frequencies with input filters
