Renaissance Channel Black Friday pricing takes 76% off this Waves channel strip plugin, setting it at $29.99 until Nov 26, 2026.
It packs compression, expansion, gating, sidechaining and four bands of EQ into a single plugin, so a whole channel chain lives in one window.
Waves describes it as the Renaissance Collection's greatest hits in one plugin.
It is a complete channel strip: EQ, gate, compressor and an output section, with a double-precision audio path.
The maker says the Renaissance line has always aimed at strong functionality behind a simple interface, and this plugin carries that approach into one strip.
Save a preset and every processor setting you dialed in comes back with one click.
The main processing blocks, as Waves lists them:
Every one of the four EQ bands offers a bell response, plus a high or low resonance shelf.
Because the compressor and the gate each take their own sidechain, you can key them from different sources inside the same strip.
The Rotation control sits next to the panning, so stereo image adjustments happen on the channel itself instead of in a separate plugin.
The spectrum analyzer can run behind the EQ display, which lets you see where the energy sits while you cut and boost.
On Mac, Waves lists macOS Monterey 12, Ventura 13, Sonoma 14 and Sequoia 15, with VST, AU and AAX plugin formats.
On PC it supports Windows 10 and later, in VST and AAX.
If you already track and mix in the box, a full strip on one insert keeps the plugin count and your channel layout simple.
The maker sums the plugin up as flexible processing, a quick workflow and strong sound quality, built from the Renaissance Collection's best-known tools.
Yes. Waves has the Renaissance Channel Black Friday deal at 76% off, which puts the channel strip plugin at $29.99 until Nov 26, 2026.
It combines compression, expansion, gating, sidechaining and a 4-band EQ in one plugin. The compressor offers R-Comp and R-Vox voicings, the expander can act as a gate, and there is a Rotation control and a spectrum analyzer display.
On Mac it runs as VST, AU and AAX, on macOS Monterey 12 through Sequoia 15. On Windows 10 and later it comes as VST and AAX. There is no AU version for PC.
Yes. The compressor and the expander/gate each have their own separate sidechain, so you can key them independently. The expander can also be switched to work as a gate.
