MEET PARALLEL AGGRESSOR
Parallel processing plays a fundamental part in getting a “big” mix sound. By
processing multiple copies of the same track and blending them together, you
can add more punch to a mix — in a more natural-sounding way.
It's like teamwork: Multiple copies of the same track - each focused on
doing one specific job - can achieve more together than a single copy being
processed to death on its own.
Parallel Aggressor is based on this simple concept. The plugin splits your audio
into three equal parts:
Dry - Your original signal
Spank - A heavily compressed duplicate
Heat - A heavily saturated duplicate
Work the duplicates hard! Then mix all three signals to squeeze every drop of
sonic juice out of your track.

WORKFLOW
1. Balance the three parallel signals from the main level mixer.
2. Use the Spank and Heat knobs to dial-up the firepower of the parallel engines.
3. The meters help you set the right amount of Spank and Heat for any audio signal.
(Dial the main Spank/Heat knobs until the meters peak right before the orange line).
4. The style knobs inject desirable sonic flavors into the parallel engines.
(Engage multiple at once).
5. The solo buttons let you monitor each parallel signal individually.
6. Turn on Auto Gain to get a consistent plugin output, roughly matching the input level.
7. Output sets the global output level (post Auto Gain).
8. Switch between three different color schemes by clicking the top left icon.

FEATURES
SPANK
Spank offers an addictively punchy compression algorithm, designed to
adapt to your audio signal. It begins where our I Heart NY plugin ended, with
improvements in sound quality, signal detection and flexibility.
Style injection buttons:
Extra Punch: Shapes the initial transients of the incoming signal as well as the
compressor's envelope settings for a punchier feel.
Extra Smack: Changes the algorithm's behavior for a more aggressive sound.
Sidechain Filter: Preserves the low end of your signal.
Mono: Turns the Spank signal into mono.
HEAT
Heat is a warm, analog modeled, saturation algorithm with an aggressive bite.
It is based on our tape saturator from Super VHS, but has been rewritten and
optimized for the Parallel Aggressor release.
Style injection buttons:
Extra Hot: Activates a second, dirtier, distortion algorithm.
Tone: Shapes the tone of the distorted signal for more mid-range bite.
HP Filter: Analog-modeled filter, cutting off the low end at 150hz.
LP Filter: Analog-modeled filter, cutting off the high end at 7500hz.
AUTO GAIN
Auto Gain matches the combined output of the plugin’s three internal signals to
the level of the incoming signal (approximately). Disengage anytime.
PRESETS
Parallel Aggressor comes loaded with 25 presets created by BABY Audio and some
friends of the house:
- KurtCurt (Grammy nominated engineer for 2 Chainz, Diamond D, Wiz Khalifa).
- Anthony Saffery (Billboard #1 producer for Portugal. The Man, Dirty Vegas).
