SPL® TwinTube Processor
-
Easily add warm tube saturation, harmonics, and presence to your sources.
Professional mix engineers have long employed the SPL TwinTube hardware for its ability to make vocals and instruments pop, emphasizing select harmonics to add presence and dimension without impacting dynamic range. The SPL TwinTube Processor plug-in for UAD-2 hardware and Apollo interfaces brings the distinctive features, sound, and character of the the original high-end SPL hardware directly to your DAW.
The SPL TwinTube Processor plug-in expertly combines two essential tube effects, Saturation and Harmonics, in a single processor. Its designed as two fully independent stages — which can be run together or separately — each providing its own unique character. The result is an exceptionally wide-ranging palette of sonic shaping, from smooth and creamy overdrive to deep, growling saturation, with a range of harmonic overtones to add warmth.Boost presence and spatial imaging without increasing overall dynamic range

Thumbs up !
Few knobs and really powerful.

Use something else
Really disappointed in this. wish I spent the money on a different UAD plugin. Native Instruments is far better, this seems to just add super unnatural transients and doesn't even sound nice on 95% of drums or anything I use it on compared to other transient plugins.

spl twin tube...as if i had a new studio
the twin tube is an exellent tool to give colours on individual tracks. by adding differrent upper harmonics each track seperates from the other, so you have a possibility to differenciate the different instruments.
this tool really is pricelessJ. Neves
Absolutely Amazing!
I’d already owned the PA version for some time but this one sounds completely different! A must-have, no doubt!

Fast and easy Harmonics
I use the SPL TwinTube Processor Plugin to get the harmonics i need on a single channel. It is easy to use and makes my workflows very fast. And it is great sounding too. I allways like to use it.

Magic fairy dust on snares!
I've used the SPL Twintube Processor on just about every part of my productions, but it really shines on snares - makes them pop and even acts as a natural limiter of some sorts. Great stuff, and great bang for the buck!

Adding warm to cold digital life
SPL always gives you what you need, no more, no less. This emulation gives you a valve color and warm but do not add extra character. Do not sound digital, if you use it "wisdomly" will improve your audio more than you could believe. Thanks UA!

nice tool but
there are other nice saturation plug ins so , this is not a must buy item

An excellent tube warmth plugin
If you want to just add tube warmth to your sound, this is the most excellent solution.
J. Bell
Horses and courses I guess.
The high harmonic function of this plugin is fantastic - usually; on the wrong source it just makes everything worse.
The unwelcome intermodulation distortion component of the other control can only be used both sparingly and very carefully. lest it badly unglue your mix.
perhaps it's intended for master bus usage, but I think it's way to heavy handed for that.M. Narain
SPL Tube Enhancement
I used to own an Avalon 737 & sold it & then regretted. I then bought an Avalon M5 & it’s not the same it was way more transparent than I wanted. I wanted that roundness back my vox & I wanted to doit during the trackin phase. I demoed the TwinTube & WaveArts which I had to use after trackin. Both good but the TwinTube sounded better on vox & the WaveArts sounded better on Instruments. I’m very please with my choice for vox. To me it was very close if not indistinguishable to a multiple tube unit.
