El veredicto de Dubspot

El veredicto de Dubspot

Standalone Sunset Sound room and reverb plug-in with VRM positioning, dual engines and 336 live-room IRs. Strong Black Friday value at $49.99 until 30 Nov; not a Capitol- or Ocean Way-specific model.

Ideal para Mixers who want Sunset Sound's three live rooms, chambers, plates and a spring without spending Capitol Studios money.

Pros

  • Studios 1, 2 and 3 with up to 27 captured source positions each
  • Dual engines: rooms plus chambers, iso booths, EMT plates and AKG spring
  • VRM positioning and variable dampening in Studios 1 and 3
  • $49.99 until 30 November 2026 (from $149.99)

Cons

  • Not Capitol or Ocean Way — different rooms and mic lockers
  • Captured-studio tool, not a long algorithmic hall
  • About 1 GB install; online authorisation required
