the signal.
And its creator.
Respected algorithms.
Tools built for mixing.
MCConsole + MCBuss and MCTape preserve the original DSP by Chris Johnson, creator of Airwindows. MCChannel combines adapted Airwindows modules with calibrated MCPlugins EQ. Readable interfaces and studio-inspired finishes bring the collection together.

Audio Units (AU) for macOS Intel and Apple Silicon.
Both Standard and Metal finishes are included.
Why do MCConsole and MCBuss come together?
They are one console plugin split into two parts: MCConsole goes on every track and MCBuss on the Master track. The single €10 purchase includes both parts.
Standard or Metal: do I need to choose?
No. Both finishes are included in every purchase. They use the same DSP and can coexist. The selector above only changes the previews.

How does supporting Chris Johnson work?
