The Scheps Parallel Particles Black Friday deal from Waves takes 76% off this Scheps Parallel Particles plugin, which brings it to $29.99 until Nov 26, 2026.
It packs Andrew Scheps' parallel processing chains into 4 controls, so you can shape a sound without building the chain yourself.
The maker says it is based on his go-to parallel setups. Scheps is a Grammy-winning mix engineer whose credits include Adele, Jay Z, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Metallica.
The idea is to change the attitude, energy and emotion of a track in seconds. Waves says you skip the complex processing and go straight to energy and feel.
There are four controls, and each one adds a single quality:
Waves lists individual tracks, buses and final masters as places to use it. That covers a single guitar channel, a drum bus or the stereo bounce.
If you already run parallel compression or saturation on a send, this does that kind of job from one plugin window. You blend in the effect instead of rebuilding the chain each session.
That suits quick decisions. Push Bite on a flat piano, bring up Sub under a thin kick, or open the top of a dull vocal with Air.
This Waves multi-effect plugin runs on Mac and PC, in these formats:
