Scheps Omni Channel / User Guide
Hello and welcome to the Scheps Omni Channel user guide! I’m really excited about this plugin, and so
is everyone at Waves. It took a lot of hard work to bring it to life, and I think the final product has not only
met, but exceeded, all of our expectations. The genesis of Scheps Omni Channel came from our desire
to fulfill the classic definition of a channel strip (EQ, Dynamics, and more—in one plugin), while giving the
user the sonic color options and flexibility that you get from mixing and matching equipment or plugins. The
real breakthrough came when we redefined “channel strip" to mean “everything you need to make your tracks
sound better, all in one easy-to-use unified interface.” We think Scheps Omni Channel lives up to that
definition, and then some!
Scheps Omni Channel is a powerful channel strip plugin that was developed in collaboration with multi-Grammy®-
winning mixing engineer Andrew Scheps. It’s made up of the kinds of tools that Andrew has used over the years to
craft the sound of his legendary mixes; tools that help get the mix done, and get it done really well. Scheps Omni
Channel is made up of five processing modules, an input/output section, and an insert point for an additional plugin.
All of these hold up on their own, but together they shine. This is not just a collection of useful, great-sounding
processors, nor is it just an artist signature plugin that delivers the taste and attitude of a specific engineer—It’s both.
