The URS Saturation plug-in digitally recreates six different and distinct pre amplifier algorithms, non linear tape head saturation and transformer core saturation. Each features a different type of input stage saturation, even and odd ordered harmonics and soft clipping. URS Saturation v2.0 is currently available for Windows (VST) and Mac OS X (VST, AU and RTAS) for the introductory price of $199.99. The update is free for all registered Saturation v1.0 users. A Windows RTAS version is in development and will be released shortly as a free download. TDM versions are planned and will be released at a later time. The URS Saturation plug-in digitally recreates four different and distinct pre amplifiers each featuring: a different type of input stage saturation, even and odd ordered harmonics and soft clipping. The initial four Mic Pre Amplifiers models include-Four Vintage Pre Amplifier Algorithms -Even and Odd Ordered Harmonics. URS Saturation Plug-In. URS offers a hybrid plug-in that offers console and tape machine algorithms for preamps (6), tape saturation (2), transformer core saturation (2), tube and discrete analog saturation, soft clipping and even/odd ordered harmonic distortion. Tape emulation features include tape head algorithms (2) and choices for 15 or 30 ips.
URS Saturation Plug-in 2.0

Starting with software for RTAS, AU and VST formats on Mac OSX (PC support and TDM coming soon), the new Unique Recording Software or URS Saturation plug-in is the most comprehensive collection of amplifier models ready to exhibit every conceivable mode and sound of being overdriven or saturated. Saturation 2.0 has nine vintage analog algorithms with 158 presets. The six vintage mic pre-amp algorithms cover the sound of 'British', 'German' and American tube in both Class-A and FET transistorized units. The presets have variations of transformer core saturation and mono analog 15/30-i.p.s. tape recorder overloading.
URS even has thought to include soft clipping--a common occurrence in old recordings made by even the best engineers when singers and musicians pushed a little harder and gently overloaded the mics and tape decks.
I installed URS Saturation 2.0 in my Pro Tools rig and it is head and shoulders better than any of my other 'analog' or saturation plug-ins. It wins by virtual of its complete adjustability and vast collection of sonic treatments. Distortion is a newfound friend in my mixing suite. I like the Input Control to adjust the level into the drive amp; the ability to control the type (odd and even) and the amount of desired harmonics, saturation and soft clipping; and finally the blend control to mix the straight signal with the grunge.
Saturation 2.0 use 64-bit floating point processing and there is a cool plasma meter to show the increase in apparent loudness even though the VU meter does not. Much more at: www.ursplugins.com

URS Classic Console Strip Pro - VST-RTAS v1.0
60 Selectable Channel Compressor/ Limiter starting points - Pre or Post EQ
5 Selectable EQ Algorithms for each Fully Sweepable Parametric band
Channel Filters - Pre or Post Compressor or Sidechainable
Powerful De-esser and other included special effects
Interactive Signal Flow Display Section follows the signal path
Super DSP efficient URS Classic Console Strip version included
Hands on Four Vintage Recording Consoles, Program EQs and Racks of Outboard Compressors digitally recreated in a single plug-in! The URS Classic Console Strip Pro is a revolutionary new way of combining classic sounds into one unified channel strip. This modern concept allows the engineer to create hundreds of custom console starting points from the almost never ending palette of input stages, compressor/limiter and EQ choices all with near zero latency and full 48 bit Double Precision Processing.
Listen to what we believe is the most versatile and best sounding classic console strip that was never made before!
From the moment you put the URS Classic Console Strip Pro input stages in circuit you will hear the difference! Selectable Input Stage Algorithms digitally recreate the sound and characteristics of classic input stages to add warmth. The Input Stage Intensity control adjusts the Input Stage affect from 0-200%. Thirty (30) input stages are presently included:
Class A British input transformer
Class A German input transformer
Two Class A tube input stages
15ips 2' tape electronics/head bump
30ips 2' tape electronics/head bump
30ips 1/2' tape electronics/head bump
Fifteen input transformer & tape combos
In your face Interactive Signal Flow Button Display No confusion here! The signal flow button display section shows the signal path of Compressor, Filters and EQ sections. The labeling of the buttons updates automatically as per the status of the Compressor and Filters section Pre/Post switches. In addition, each signal flow button acts as a bypass for the section it represents.
Independent Compressor, Filters and EQ sections The Compressor, Filters and EQ sections are totally independent of each other featuring separate In/Out switching via the Signal Flow Button Display. The Compressor section is selectable between Pre/Post the EQ section. The Filters section is selectable Pre/Post /Sidechain the Compressor section.
Compressor/Limiter section features a custom designed versatile channel compressor that can match the sound and characteristics of Diode Bridge, VCA, Fet, Opto, Tube and Tape compression.
The compressor starting points are based on the most prized compressors limiters in recording studio history, The URS Classic Console Strip Pro features 14 classic console compressor/limiter models and 46 outboard compressor/limiter models.
The compressor starting points simultaneously change the input stage algorithms to suit the compressor preset.
The Compressor features fully adjustable Threshold, Ratio, Knee, Attack, Release and Gain Makeup. Adjustable from soft to aggressive!

Telephone preset Brand New EQ Algorithims The URS Strip Pro features all new EQ Algorithim technolgy. The digitally recreated Analog EQs represent the cutting edge in EQ modeling.
EQ section digitally recreates the sound of four different analog consoles plus a Vintage Tube program EQ. All bands features fully sweepable frequency and 'Q' bandwidth selection, The Mid range bands overlap over four octaves of frequency selection. The LF and HF EQ Bands are selectable Peak or Shelving. Each EQ band presently selects from either:
1967 Console EQ - American 4 Band
1970 Console EQ - British 3 band Class A
1972 Console EQ - British 4 band Class A/B
1980 Console EQ - British 4 Band Room to grow The URS Classic Console Strip Pro’s unified GUI allows room to add more Input Stages, Compressor and EQ algorithms as they are developed.
High Res 48 bit 'Double Precision' processing The URS Strip TDM version features Hi Resolution 48-bit TDM and URS Classic Console Strip Native features 64-bit 'Double Precision' processing for increased clarity and headroom with unparalleled gain reduction. Hi Resolution 'Double Precision' processing helps to avoid internal clipping in the Digital Domain.
Two Plug-ins included The URS Strip Pro includes the super DSP efficient URS Strip version. We call the URS Classic Console Strip the 'Easy Eight'. The URS Classic Console Strip's eight knobs map perfectly to the Command 8, Digi002, ProjectMix I/O, ProControl, HUI and other popular controllers allowing for quick adjustments on individual tracks. The eight knobs map to Page table 1 and all other functions map to Page table 2.
