Team R2R | 28 Sep 2021 | 22.4MB
The Fusion Vintage Drive plug-in is a digital emulation of the Vintage Drive processor from SSL's critically acclaimed Fusion Stereo Analogue Colouration hardware.

Designed to produce gentle harmonic saturation and soft compression reminiscent of driving vintage hardware into the analogue sweet spot, to all-out authentic analogue distortion. Fusion Vintage Drive Plug-in is a must have for adding an organic analogue feel to your tracks, groups, mixes and masters.

Key Features:

Modelled on the coveted SSL Fusion Vintage Drive processor.
A unique, non-linear saturation circuit.
DENSITY and DRIVE interact to produce harmonics, soft-clipping, and natural compression.
MIX for instant parallel processing.
AUTO GAIN.
Exceptional DSP design with reference to the original analogue circuit.
Modelled using a combination of real-life measurements, analogue circuit designs and close collaboration with the original analogue designers of FUSION hardware.
NEW: ECO mode drops the plug-in into a zero latency& reduced CPU mode, for tracking and recording applications.
Comes loaded with presets from world-class producers and engineers, including: Adrian Hall, Alan Moulder, Caesar Edmunds, Charlie Holmes, Michael Brauer, Romesh Dodangoda, Sean Divine and Wez Clarke.

I've got a real SSL Fusion, doubt this will really touch it but nice to have if you don't have one.

I have the Fusion legit software and hardware. The software is definitely excellent. As is inherent with analog, you cannot replicate it totally because every unit is different. But I would challenge anybody to blind test this software against my hardware. I can't tell the difference by ear, only by visual analysis. This is an excellent alternative to the hardware, and thanks to R2R it's free.

Nah, I've been testing it.. it IS good but it does most definitely NOT do what the hardware does. It sounds 'flat' like ALL plug-ins do, like all digital does. (Yes obv I tested with the trafo off on the real unit). I tried all combos, with the extras from the hardware and with just the drive/stereo image.

What I found was, indeed these two plug-ins are really good and simple to use and I will use them in combo with my hardware, the stereo imager is quick/simple and good for many uses on stereo sources to declutter the middle (if you had no choice but need a stereo synth track for example), and it sounds close to what the hardware does, closer than the vintage drive.

The vintage drive on the other sounds good, and unlike most saturators has a nice warmth to it... BUT (Hey mebbe I just have better ears?) it still sounds 'ITB' like a picture of the effect, much liks soft synths don't really sound like hardware analog... it's good but I'd say it has 90% of the flavour (the hardware sounds more rounded/full and effortless - has a euphonic quality) but none of the hardware's 3D-ness... NONE. Vs plug-ins it's a great plug-in and I will use it a lot, but overall both these plugs are like different takes on what the hardware is doing, not exact and not 'as good' (esp on a full mix), but they are very handy for those things you don't wanna print tracks through the real box all the time and get some decent quality sat/spread quickly and easily.

If you don't own the fusion these are good plugs like any spreader and saturator but they do not replace it, and I doubt any future additions (Eq/compressor and certainly TRAFO emulation) will come any closer, probably even less 'real' if anything.

That's my findings, and I didn't wanna just convince myself of the purchase, I did proper testing and overall the effect of the hardware fusion on a mix or stem is still stunning vs the 'typical if great' plug-in sound of these plug-ins.

That's your opinion dude. Fair enough. I just disagree.

This plugin sounds exceptional. I know it's not going to sound exactly like the hardware but one beautiful thing about it is that each engineer's presets has varying EQ curves. Such a variation allows for users to get more mileage out of it. It honestly sounds great.

Could you expand on this ?

On which tracks did you test it ? Could you explain what you mean by " sounds analog " ? You own the hardware ?

THIS IS INTERESTING AS WE HAVE NOW 2 OPINIONS BY OWNERS OF THE REAL THING WTF I HAVE BEEN CONTAMINATED BY THE UPPERCASE VIRUS TOO.

So, we get ( aouch ! saved, thanks Kaspersky anti-capital letters tool! ) 2 positive opinions on this software equivalent : yourself and cliquid.

Posted my opinion above (after extensive testing the past days)... my take is they are great plug-ins... PLUG-INS... vs all other plug-ins, they work fast, sound good and don't 'damage' anything. Very nice, and even better for free. Everyone should grab/use them.

Vs my hardware.. no.. they are not the same, the vintage drive lacks the depth/roundness and dimensional quality of the hardware - like a snapshot of the effect (like a soft synth vs real), and it doesn't do what the hardware does with transients... it's different, and useful but not what the fusion does (even without all the extra colours). The stereo spread is somewhat closer to the hardware as it's not trying to do anything too clever (emulation wise) but still sounds a bit less euphonic. 90% of the flavour of the real thing, 0% of the 3D-ness/roundness (eeven with trafo disable on hardware). Bring the REAL Trafo in and it's game over!

But great plug-ins and thanks R2R for allowing us to use/test these in-depth!

"depth/roundness and dimensional quality" does not exist at all. Thats placebo. Nobody hears "depth/roundness and dimensional quality"

Thanks as always R2R and DECiBELLE.

Dashslap, if you have a chance to A/B this against your hardware version, would like to get your opinion on it.

Unbelivable.

This R2R guy is starting to make me wonder if he reached god mode like Air back in the days.

I was hoping I could give this one a shat to see if I can remove celestianMB from acustica audio from my Master bus.

I hope this will make the cut.

Thx a million time R2R, you're a boss.

if ssl put fusion in ssl360 (2 new buttons for drive and space) will be fantastic
  Resident 21.05.2013 307

Yes if they integrated both space and drive it would embody a true ssl workflow and maximize the excellent 360 software.
