Lindell 80 Series

This is the authentic sound of some of the most coveted vintage British recording modules ever made. Lindell Audio’s 80 Series is an exacting emulation of classic vintage preamp/EQs, a diode bridge limiter/compressor, and a legendary line amplifier module—all faithfully recreated for your DAW. Each module is inspired by components from a hand-wired British console that shaped the sound of countless records over the past 30 years. The sound of this analog piece is nothing short of extraordinary—and in the Lindell 80 Series, you'll find that same full-bodied, aggressive power to help your productions sound as rich and analog as possible.

A classic console Dating back to 1969 when it was first brought to the market, the 80 series analog mixing desks attained somewhat of a cult-like status due to their uniqueness and rarity. Known for their breathtaking depth, pristine high end and rich definition, the individual modules that comprise these desks have stood the test of time, and have inspired countless high-end clones. It’s no wonder that institutions like Sound City Studios, Oscilloscope Labs and Sphere Studios have relied on the sound and features offered by this desk. Lindell 80 Series Channel brings the sound of this desk into the digital domain.

An entire family of iconic vintage processors On its own, this classic British-style preamp/EQ is one of the most revered in recording history—capable of beautifully musical high-end boosts and incredibly full, weighty low-end amplification. Add to that a faithful recreation of a more flexible and precision-focused EQ variant, beloved by engineers for its versatility, and you'd already have a plugin worth more than the price of admission. But the 80 Series offers even more: a smooth and creamy diode bridge limiter/compressor, a vintage line amplifier for added richness and harmonic color, and a special Buss mode that delivers the analog console character without added complexity.

An updated icon To complete their new console offering, Lindell Audio has licensed the patented Tolerance Modeling Technology from Brainworx to provide an authentic analog experience in the digital realm. Mix your songs using 32 distinct channels to replicate the various component tolerances found in the original hardware. Plugin-only features include a Mix knob for the limiter/compressor, variable THD and V Gain and more.
