The deal

What it is
Parallel Process #1 is a parallel processing plugin built by Metric Halo in collaboration with mix engineer Rick Carson of Make Believe Studios. It packages the parallel compression approach Carson developed on his SSL console into a single plugin, letting you blend a heavily processed signal with the dry source for added density and presence without complex bus routing.
Who it's for
Mixing engineers and producers who want a fast way to add punch and clarity to vocals, drums, and mid-range instruments like guitar, synth, and strings.
Key features
- One-knob-style workflow with no send/return routing required
- Tuned specifically for vocal, percussion, and mid-range sources
- Available in AAX Native, AU, VST2, and VST3 formats
- Native Apple Silicon support with iLok licensing (USB, cloud, or machine-based)
