I'm not sure I can actually hear what it's doing here, but it sounds to me like it's slightly adding colour to the signal.

On this section you also have a line-input, which controls the input volume, and an analog button that doesn't add the annoying white noise it used to! If you want your drums to smack a little more, putting this on a parallel processing chain will do wonders, and we haven't even got to any of the other features yet. It's great to use directly on the channel, but is sometimes even better when used on a bus, or in an audio effect rack. If you drive this knob all the way, you're not going to be hearing nice things, but if you keep it at around 10-20, it adds a perfect, subtle distortion that is sometimes all you need to bring out a vocal part, drum section or piano. Using this knob you can add drive to the signal, which adds saturation. This is where you can change how much mic pre-amp you'd like on your signal, emulating the original SSL console's pre-amp sound. This has hands down gotta be my favourite part of the plugin, and it's a newly introduced feature! Waves have also included a brand new section of the plugin, which allows you to drive the signal of the original SSL console pre-amp, adding subtle saturation to your sound, and giving it that analog vibe that most audio heads crave. You'll hear the black is slightly duller that the brown. The difference between the two knobs is quite noticeable, with the black providing a more, dull, drawn back tone, and the brown providing a nice high-end boost. And, in this edition, they've included the ability to choose: Waves have done an incredible amount of work, creating an entirely new plugin from scratch, re-modelling the sound, design and utility. And the original SSL 4000E channel strips actually came with different coloured knobs, all providing different flavours of EQ and compression to your audio. Like we said above, the circuitry was different between models.
