Waves Abbey Road TG12345 Review

Russ takes a look and listen to the new Waves Abbey Road TG12345 plug-in model of a vintage Abbey Road mixing console. He gives a full overview of features and then shows it in action on drums, bass, acoustic guitar, electric guitar and vocals.
See what he thinks and check out the examples before downloading it yourself and giving it a spin.

    I demoed it since the first day and loved it. Drums, vocals, bass with a little touch of saturation, guitars of all kinds, brass sections and even latin percussion...Amazing eq, lovely dynamics and great saturation, if used wisely . Very versatile, seems to work on everything. Thumbs up!!

    doesnt sound analog, analog has depth that this plug in does not provide, its still sounds digital 2d. Does its sound good? Yes it does, but dont fool yourself to sound analog.

    Great video. Thanks for all the great and helpful info you guys put out for the community. That said, there was a misunderstanding in this video when discussing the EQ. Russ described the presence frequency selector as choosing the frequency for the Treble band. However, the Treble is a set peaking EQ when boosting or a set shelving EQ when cutting. You can't choose the Treble or Bass frequency. The frequency selector knob chooses the frequency for the Presence band, not the Treble band. Also, the Hold knob doesn't operate the way a typical compressor's hold control does. Instead, what it does is add a constant DC voltage signal to the sidechain of the VCA, which has the result of reducing the amount of gain reduction caused by the processed audio, sort of like raising the threshold. Not at all what you would expect a hold control to do, but this was not a typical console.

    You are right, manual specification tell us that the treble knob operate as a Bell filter fixed at 5 kHz when boosting and as a Shelf fixed at 10 kHz when cutting. Thanks for specs about the HOLD knob.

    Let’s not forget that it’s an emulation of a solid state desk. It sounds good but I find it easy to distort. The REDDs and the HLS are much more forgiving. I’m feeding it synths that are already saturated and that’s likely part of the problem. I bet it would be great on acoustic guitar or a clean electric.

    does the abbey TG mastering chain contain all the same technology/emulations/features? would having both plugins be redundant?
