ec 300 Black Friday pricing on McDSP's EC-300 Echo Collection HD v7 is 44% off, which puts the echo plugin at $99 until Nov 23, 2026.
This is the HD version, made for AAX DSP users. A Native version of the plugin is also available.
The EC-300 packs the sounds of dozens of echo and chorus effects into one plugin. It is built around three delay types: Magnetic, Digital and Analog.
McDSP says the design draws on nearly two decades of its gear modelling experience. The interface is high definition and gives you heavily stylized visual feedback while you work.
Every delay type has its own set of character modes, so one plugin can produce a wide spread of echo sounds.
On the delay side, the plugin gives you:
Wow, flutter and saturation are the controls that add tape-style movement and grit to the repeats. Ducking pulls the echoes down while the dry signal plays, so the tail returns in the gaps.
The collection ships with more than 75 SIMs (Synthetic Impulse Models). Mono, Stereo and Mono-to-Stereo versions are included.
Under the hood, McDSP lists zero latency algorithms and double precision processing. The plugin is optimized for Apple Silicon and the latest Intel processors.
A license or subscription comes with two activations.
HD v7 supports these plugin formats:
Starting with v7.0, the VST format has been dropped, so the older v6 McDSP plugins in that format won't receive further updates and are removed during installation.
McDSP says its HD and Native plugins work with Pro Tools, Logic Pro, Cubase, Nuendo, Ableton Live, LUNA, Reaper, Sonar and Studio One. Any other DAW that supports AAX, AU or VST3 is covered too. The HD plugins also support VENUE S6L systems, which use a VENUE-specific installer from the McDSP website.
On Mac, you need macOS 10.13 or higher, 64-bit only, and the plugins run natively on Intel and M1 Apple Silicon. macOS 12 Monterey is compatible. Windows support covers 64-bit Windows 7, 8 and 10.
Activation runs through an iLok2 or iLok3 USB Smart Key, or a free iLok License Manager account with an iLok Cloud session.
