ValveTone '62 is a vibe-laden plugin that pays tribute to the EQs of yesterday; it's all about silky sex appeal and incredible thick tone. Deceptively simple BASS and TREBLE controls provide boost and cut algorithms that are both complex and pleasing.

You can download the demonstration version of ValveTone from the MM softwares section.
