PreSonus CTC-1 Reviews
Presonus got it right.
I used to mix with waves NLS, great plugin but it’s just not a fast workflow even with template. Studio One is brilliant with their mix fx channel and can’t wait to see what the future brings. CTC-1 is pretty brilliant and it’ll give you 3 very different analogue emulations, that because of the mix fx takes it a step further than any summing plugins out there, not only in how it sounds and works (especially cause of the cross feed), but also just the ease and workflow speed. This is not a plug-in you put on after a mix as it won’t really work as supposed - and might muddy or make your mix worse. The point of it, is to treat it as your console and mix in to it from scratch. It’ll instantly bring a lot of life and Mojo just by leveling your mix and I find that it makes me process the individual tracks less. I do have a mix bus and parallel compression template but I’m sure no matter your starting mix state mixing in to this will make you experience your mix approach different.
