Reign Design has just released The Pro Pack, a collection of four Audio Unit plug-ins for Mac OS X. Designed to be placed on the mix buss, each one of the plugins in The Pro Pack replicates key components of real world recording sound.

M-Pressor :

The M-Pressor is the glue that holds the mix together. It has a pre amp model as well as a compressor model. It has the ability to add light compression or a more aggressive squash.

The Q Box :

A three band EQ which offers the ability to tweak low and high frequencies and pinpoint problem midrange frequencies. In addition to that is a signal emulation chain.

Red Tape :

Red Tape provides tape saturation. There are five different types to choose from.

2B :

Sometimes just a little goes a long way when you want to add that tube sound. By adjusting the warmth knob you can dial in just as much tube sound as you like.

The Pro Pack is available now in AudioUnit format for Mac OS X and is priced at $99 for a limited time. Note that a demo version is also available.
