Waves CLA EchoSphere Release Plugin is free! As we all know, every year, the kind folks over at Waves Audio release a Brand New FREE plugin for Black Friday Weekend only - and this year, they’re releasing a new plugin called CLA EchoSphere!
In partnership with legendary mix engineer Chris Lord-Alge (Green Day, Muse, Bruce Springsteen) CLA EchoSphere is based on his best studio gear, and combines Chris’ number 1 slap delay and number 1 plate reverb.
You can easily blend the two effects using the plugin’s faders – either in parallel, or with the delay sent to the reverb, as Chris does to achieve his unique lead vocal sound.
Use this slap/plate combination can help get a lead vocal, guitar solo or lead synth line to standout in your production.
In his video for above Production Expert, Brent March introduces us to CLA EchoSphere and its features, giving it a first run on a vocal track in Studio One.
On a related note, Waves Black Friday Sale is now on with exclusive deals on a range of best-selling plugins. Purchase multiple products for additional bonus discounts.
