Press Release: Softube Launches Tube-Tech PE 1C for Native and TDM formats with Introductory Offer

Linköping, Sweden. July 16, 2010. Softube is shipping the Tube-Tech PE 1C for native (VST/AU/RTAS) and TDM. Tube-Tech PE 1C is available today at the Softube web shop and at authorized Softube dealers at an introductory price of $229 (Native) or $329 (TDM/Native), excl. VAT. The introductory offer will last until August 16 and thereafter the price will be $279 and $449, respectively.

The Tube-Tech PE 1C is the Pultec style equalizer. The design marked the birth of Tube-Tech 25 years ago and was created as an exact replica of the original Pultec design. Today, the PE 1C is a vintage classic still in production and can be found in professional recording studios all over the world.

The Tube-Tech PE 1C is a passive, tube-based equalizer suitable for many different sources ranging from bass drums and guitars to vocals. The equalizer features a Low Frequency section made up of two low shelf filters which can be combined to attenuate and boost at the same time. The High Frequency section has a peak and shelving filter working in parallel, which provides a smooth top end while not getting too bright.

The ability to combine the different filters and sections is what gives the PE 1C its characteristic sound, this is something which plays a crucial part in explaining the magic Pultec sound realized by this Tube-Tech classic.

The Tube-Tech PE 1C plug-in by Softube captures every nuance of the hardware version. It has an extremely analog sound that is evident as soon as you start using it. Every aspect of this studio standard, 25 years in the making, is now finally available as a plug-in.

A fully functional 20 day demo can be downloaded from http://www.softube.com.

"We are excited to experience the PE 1C in the digital domain and impressed once again by the skills of Softube."

John G. Petersen
Designer and founder of Tube-Tech
