Camelphat 3
Looks like we desperately need a review of version 3; and with the incredible indispensability of this plug-in, I regret not submitting a review sooner.
I first discovered CamelPhat via the free version - and even though that little plug-in was limited to mono, I was blown away by how it could instantly and effortlessly enhance the basslines, synths and drums. I downloaded the full demo and resolved to buy it as soon as possible.
Then, suddenly, version 3 came out.
Wow. What an update! I could not believe my eyes and ears with this one...not only did the GUI get a much-needed kick in the rear, but the features had expanded as well.
USER INTERFACE: This is a truly gorgeous UI, one of the best out there. This is an interface that you want to touch, tweak and explore; and the thick, gold look reflects the thick character of the plug-in quite while, I think. The only reason I haven't given the UI a full '10' is because I experience an odd graphics redraw problem where one can visibly see the interface blink out and redraw its elements. It doesn't affect performance, is just mildly distracting and the devs are aware of this issue (that seems to be almost exclusively with ATI cards - why did I buy one?) and I'm sure it will be fixed soon.
SOUND: Oh yes...the Big British Tone!!! This is what it all comes down to: CamelPhat has some of the best tube-style distortion and compressors you will ever hear. Merely turning up the Tube distortion just a couple notches will help drums and bass leap out of the mix, giving the track that non-linear perfection for carving out its own sonic space.
Now add some compression, and things really start pounding. The Compressor on this is remarkably transparent or beautifully crushing at higher settings, and you can select between normal and 'Phat' modes, the latter being recommended for more aggresive material, where some extra punch might be welcome. I find you can get equally good results with either setting, which is something I like about this plug-in; it isn't 100% scientific; there is a turn-it-up-and-go factor that lends itself well to quick inspiration and enhancements, which one feels is the ethos at work here.
Also worth mentioning are:
The Magic EQ, a wonderful low-end enhancer that can really come in handy. I tend to use it most often on kick drums, but of course it comes into play with basslines and synths too.
The Xcita is a very sweet, tube-like exciter, has been really helpful for adding some sheen; a welcome feature indeed.
I use the BandPass filteres quite a lot, and the Multi-Mode Filters are excellent sounding, but I must admit I haven't had a chance to fully explore them, as I tend to use CamelPhat primarily for its warming/compression features.
The Flanger...well, I'm personally not sure why this is in here. I would have rather had something like a Chorus or Doubler, something more universally useful. But no harm done!
FEATURES: Really, what you've got here is a kind of channel strip plug-in; a one-stop-shop for beefing up your tracks, or with the filters, adding sweeps or craziness. It has the familiar 'Randomize' function, which again, scores points for the plug-n-go feel. With all the feature available and the great sound, just about anything is possible here.
DOCUMENTATION: Top notch, friendly instructions that really help you get your way around. I appreciated that in the FAQ's, they even told you how to make the new one sound like the old, which I was curious about! One of the easier-to-use manuals I've experienced.
CUSTOMER SUPPORT: Full '10' here. Ben and Rob have been ultra-fast in responding to any questions or problems I may have, and the forum reflects that. One always appreciates great service from real people - real developers - that one can chat with on their forum. I recieved instant help when I submitted my report of problems with the redraw, and they are working with me to resolve in Beta-tests. Wonderful service!
VALUE: Come on. $80 for this. You must be kidding! The value is insane, and I'm glad I got in before all the 'pros' realise what they're missing (actually, to be fair, tons of pros DO use this!) and they raise the price!
Seriously, this is one of the single best returns on investment out there. If you want to get some Big British Meat on your tracks, you simply MUST try this plug-in, or remain in cold, brittle, digital hell forever. :DRead more
