The unmistakable sonic signature of Abbey Road Studios’ echo chambers was born in the 1950s. This plugin, designed in close collaboration with Abbey Road, models not just three chambers—but also the tape delays, filters, speakers, mics, and signal path that were a crucial part of this sound.
If you get goosebumps when you hear your vocals through these reverbs, maybe it’s because you’re hearing the same reverb effect that graced John Lennon’s voice on “A Day in the Life.”
Shape Your Dynamics and EQ

Add Presence for a Commanding Sound
Compared to previous Abbey Road consoles, the TG12345 added a separate Presence stage, from 0.5 to 10 kHz. This supplemented the bass and treble EQ, with flexible routing for EQ, dynamics, and presence. Dialing in just a bit of presence will let your tracks cut through the mix.
Spread Some Magic
The spread control adds magic to the stereo imaging, thanks to a mid-side matrix process. It increases the sides without touching the mids, but has a more subtle effect than many of today’s digital-based stereo imaging plug-ins—resulting in a very natural, cohesive spread that doesn’t sound “separated.” Try it on synth patches to add lush width.

Liquid-Like Feedback Compression
Unlike compressors that only bring down peaks, the TG12345’s feedback compression can upward-compress low-level signals. Bring up room tone, vocal nuances, acoustic guitar subtleties, and even out synthesizer peaks.
Added: Parallel Compression, Sidechaining, and More
Features not in the original console propel the TG12345 into the present: highpass sidechain filter, mix control for parallel compression, drive to emphasize inherent harmonic distortion, and variable noise.
