Seven Classic Effects Of The 1970’s/80s, Reimagined For The Modern Studio
Cherry Audio have expanded these awe-inspiring vintage effects with additional features aimed at today’s music producers, including presets, syncable LFOs, stereo processing, and full Apple Silicon M1 native support.
And speaking of authenticity, these effects capture not only the deep sounds and capabilities of the original Signal Processor line, but also the elegant look and heritage of their rack-mounted enclosures.
A Stack Of Historic Proportions
In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, Moog Music Inc., (then owned by Norlin Music, Inc.) wanted to extend their reach further into the production studio.
They created the Signal Processor family of rack-mounted products featuring the 16 Channel Vocoder (designed by pioneer Harald Bode), the 12 Stage Phaser, and the Ten Band Graphic and Three Band Parametric Equalizers.
Other related rack products were the Harald Bode-designed Frequency Shifter and Ring Modulator, and the singular String Filter created by Moog’s Custom Engineering Group. The Moog Signal Processors have found a place in production facilities worldwide, both past and present.
Artists like Wendy Carlos, Yellow Magic Orchestra, Tangerine Dream, John Carpenter, Genesis, Jan Hammer, Mouse on Mars, and Coldplay have used them to shape their distinctive sounds.
And producers as diverse as Giorgio Moroder, Mike Elizondo, and Sylvia Massy have cited these black boxes as treasured parts of their studio gear.
Today these units are increasingly scarce and fetch prices far above their original value – that is, if they can be found at all.
The Future Is Yours
Cherry Audio’s Rackmode Signal Processors collection represents a first-time opportunity for producers to explore these studio-quality vintage effects.
When combined with today’s modern production workflow, experimentation will lead to inspiration, and an old approach to sound can unexpectedly result in something completely new.
Rackmode Signal Processors Features
Eight circuit-precise emulations based on the original rack-mounted hardware:
- Rackmode Vocoder – Rackmode includes two versions for this 16 channel classic: an instrument plugin with a built-in dual oscillator, and an effects plugin to modify other input formats and DAW tracks for unlimited processing flexibility
- Rackmode Phaser – Based on the definitive 12 stage original known for its lush, sweeping textures
- Rackmode Ring Modulator – Based on Moog’s Harald Bode Ring Modulator with Squelch control
- Rackmode String Filter – Based on the extremely rare system created by Moog’s Custom Engineering Group, this module utilizes filter arrays that mimic acoustic string instruments
- Rackmode Frequency Shifter – Mixes two external inputs or sidechains a single input with its own built-in oscillator. The Frequency Shifter creates colorful, often metallic effects by modifying the ratio of incoming frequency components
- Rackmode Graphic EQ – Ten selectable frequency bands with Drive and Gain controls, capable of creating exotic effects when used with other instruments and effects
- Rackmode Parametric EQ – Three bands for sculpting Low, Mid, and High-frequency ranges

What People Think About 60% off “Rackmode Signal Processors” by Cherry Audio
-
"It has been a pleasure to be reunited with some old hardware friends from Cherry Audio. Like the best signal processors, there aren't too many controls to get lost in, just what you need to get the job done. I'd almost forgotten how much weight and saturation the EQ's can bring to a signal, or how warm the 12 stage phaser is, or how lush that vocoder sounds. I'm already putting these to work in my mixes. Highly recommended."
Eric Frampton - Keyboardist, Producer, Composer, and Technician
B-52s, Boston, Paul Simon, Lionel Richie, Collective Soul, Yanni, Billy Currington, Electric Avenue, and more.

“To have all the old Moog effects at my fingertips is a crazy amount of fun! And in terms of sound quality Cherry Audio have smashed it out of the park again. I don't think any other plug-in series has a better fun-to- dollar ratio than this collection!”
Dom Morley - Grammy Award winning producer/mixer/engineer
Credits include Amy Winehouse, Adele, Sting, Nick Cave, The Verve, The Police, and many more.

“I've been searching forever for effects that revisit the sound of the now discontinued "fooger" pedals. My search is over... the Rackmode Processors have THAT thick, warm, analog tone I've been looking for. The Vocoder instrument included in the pack is a huge bonus! This is an inexpensive and yet awesome bargain even if it was twice the price.”
Dave Polich - Music producer/sound designer/tour keyboard technician
Michael Jackson, David Foster, The Cure, Bonnie Raitt, Fleetwood Mac, Yamaha, Korg, Roland, Sequential, and more.

“The vintage nerd in me is in love with the Rackmode effects. I can see so many uses (and abuses) of these in my coming projects. The mind reels!"
Steve Ouimette - Composer/Artist/Producer
NFL, MLB, Call Of Duty, and Ghost Recon video game series

“We all know how important effect chains are within our setup. The right effect can be as important and crucial as choosing a sound and should always be chosen wisely. Working mainly with vintage synthesizers, one of the most important things for me is to keep the warmth and depth of the sound of my synths while adding personality through the effects. Using the 'Rackmode Signal Processors' I am pleasantly impressed by the sound quality of all the effects; in particular, the Phaser and the Ring Modulator hit me hard thanks to their uniqueness. Highly recommended!"
