Shy audio Berlin has just released Shy 90s Channel version 1.1.0!

Formats: AAX/AU/VST3 Universal Binary Mac / PC - 64bit

Product Information:

Shy audio, based in Berlin, dives deep into the sounds that defined bedroom studios of the '90s, with a focus on the budget gear that shaped the raw, unapologetic sounds of techno, hip-hop, and electronic music. The first release, Shy 90s Channel, is inspired specifically by the character-rich mixers of that era, capturing their quirks and warmth. This plugin combines bold EQ curves, lo-fi magic, and rich saturation with modern functionality to meet today’s standards, preserving the spirit of yesteryear without sacrificing authenticity.

From multi-stage saturation that spans smooth warmth to fierce harmonic distortion, to wide-sweeping EQ controls, the Shy 90s Channel is crafted for hands-on tweaking. Run it across your mix with NZ engaged, adding subtle L/R fluctuations for a natural analog width, and select MP (Minimum Phase) oversampling for that analog feel. It’s a plugin for the producers who trust their ears and love to push boundaries. Perfect for vibing, not precision—ideal for those who want their tracks to radiate with 90s energy.

What’s New in 1.1.0?

Low Cut Bypass:

The new "90s" button lets you bypass the 60 Hz low cut when Drive is at max. This means even more bass distortion when pushing the saturation to its limits. Activate by clicking on the "90s" of 90s Channel on the GUI.:rockout:
