Rackmode Signal Processors Plug-in Bundle

The deal

$39 at Sweetwater (down from $99). Sale runs through June 1, 2026.

What it is

The Cherry Audio Rackmode Signal Processors Plug-in Bundle delivers 8 circuit-precise emulations of rare and coveted rackmount hardware units. The collection spans the full spectrum of signal processing - a 16-channel Vocoder (with both instrument and effects versions), vintage String Filter, metallic Frequency Shifter, old-school Graphic EQ, three-band Parametric EQ, 12-stage Phaser with lush sweeping textures, and a Ring Modulator modeled after one of the earliest ever built. Each module recreates the circuitry and character of hardware that's either prohibitively expensive or nearly impossible to find.

Who it's for

Producers and engineers who want genuine rackmount color and character in their mixes without hunting down vintage hardware. These processors shine in electronic, ambient, experimental, and cinematic production - where the Vocoder, Frequency Shifter, and Ring Modulator open up sound design possibilities that go well beyond standard studio processing.
