Using Klevgrand Essentials Bundle

Updated

Note

This guide is made for people installing and using the plugins from Focusrite's Hitmaker Expansion– a set of plugins included with your Focusrite interface.

To find out more, click here: focusrite.com/software/hitmaker-expansion

The Klevgrand Essentials Bundle contains two plugins:

  • Korvpressor - a simple compressor to help you smooth out and balance the volume of sounds in your recordings, making them sound more even and polished.

  • REAMP - a plugin that mimics the sound of high-quality studio amplifiers, adding warmth, depth, and character to your recordings by simulating how they’d sound through real hardware.

To use these plugins, you must open them as audio effects in your DAW (recording software). Any audio you then put "through" the plugins is affected by them.

Using the Klevgrand Essentials Bundle plugins in your DAW

In this guide, we've used Ableton Live Lite as the DAW used to open the Klevgrand plugins. However, most of the steps are the same in other DAWs.

Using Klevgrand Essentials Bundle plugins in Ableton Live Lite

  1. Open Ableton Live Lite (or any DAW) from your applications folder.

  3. Go to Plug-Ins in the Browser on the left-hand side of Live.

  5. Double click either Korvpressor or REAMP.

    Ableton adds the plugin to the select track.

  6. Play audio in your DAW and as you tweak the settings in the plugin you've just opened you should hear the difference in the sound.
