The Quantec QRS vs QuantX by Relab

Most reverb emulations use static models that often ignore the hardware’s dynamic character. Building on the success of our popular LX480, and using a next-generation advanced AI-powered framework and extensive analysis of millions of data points, Relab are proudly setting new standards by capturing the true dynamic essence of the hardware with unmatched accuracy.

QuantX Essentials exceeds typical hardware emulations by meticulously re-creating not only the sound, but the ever-changing character of vintage gear, offering a living, and ever-evolving authentic quality. 

Embracing Time's Imperfections in Plug-in Form

At Relab, their goal has always been to go beyond mere emulation. They constantly strive to digitally recreate iconic hardware, by both capturing the sound as well as the unique journey of a unit’s imperfections. 

For the QuantX, they meticulously chose three exceptional units from the US, Japan, and Germany. The German one, noted for its rich sound and minimal noise, stood apart from the other two and set the standard for their emulation.

Over 12 months, they engaged in painstakingly detailed reverse engineering, collaborating with veteran engineers to restore the unit to its original 1980s specifications. They also custom-built interfaces to allow for MIDI control of every original unit.

This precision was crucial for their machine learning algorithms to conduct months of extensive tests, capturing every nuance and imperfection that defined the vintage units’ character.

Specifically, any heat-induced behavior changes, including clock fluctuations due to temperature variations, had to be taken into account. With a ±3% stability factor, these fluctuations significantly impacted reverb coefficients, which was vital to recreating the true feel of the original.

Experience the True Essence of a Long-Adored 80's Classic Reverb

With QuantX Essentials, you’re not just acquiring another reverb emulation plug-in; you’re stepping into a realm of unparalleled hardware re-creation so you can:

• Discover the highly realistic natural resonance ambience of a beloved 80’s hardware unit, so you can bring a revered, classic sound to your modern productions.
