Infra-Bus - Master Chain Emulation (GENESIS)

The Ultimate Master Bus Chain — Rebuilt for 2025

AnalogX proudly presents the newly re-engineered Infra-Bus: a complete, high-end analog mastering chain, now available in Gold, Ethereum, and our new High Quality modelling tier (which replaces Ethereum++).

This isn’t just an update — it’s a full transformation.

Infra-Bus captures the full complexity of a £60,000 mastering signal path and distils it into a one-dial Genesis experience, allowing you to mix through the chain for ultimate cohesion, depth, and with a clarity that will have you screaming "analog vibe! — without leaving your DAW.

🎚️ What’s Inside

Each version of the Infra-Bus chain is powered by one of three cutting-edge AnalogX tiers:

• Gold Tier – Great for tracking, printing, or mastering.
• Ethereum Tier – Enhanced dynamics, Perfect for glue, bounce, and compression realism.
• High Quality Tier (Diamond) – Deep profiling, harmonic memory, and dimensional contour Ideal for bus processing, mastering, and rendering. Our highest accolade yet! once you try it, there's NO going back ;-)

Each version models the same $60k signal path, including:

• Transformer Console Stage – Gives punch, density, and clarity
• Passive EQ & Tone Sculpting – Sweetens the highs, tightens the lows
• M-Passive Clarity Stage – Adds midrange openness and glassy control
• Master Bus Compressor – Gentle, transparent glue
• Low-End Saturation Stage – For analog warmth and roundness
• Limiter Finish – Final loudness without harshness

Captured at 192kHz, modelled at 48kHz for smooth real-time use in Genesis.

🧬 A Brief History

The Infra-Bus chain began as a no-compromise mastering setup — a signal path assembled from some of the finest analog gear available today. With transformer-balanced summing, a carefully tuned EQ curve, and elite-grade compression, the original setup was known for its ability to make tracks sound instantly "done."

Engineers would often mix through this chain, not just slap it on the end. The result? Better decisions, faster workflow, and a master-ready sound without the need for excessive processing later.

By deeply profiling this entire chain using advanced capture methods and tiered model architectures, we've preserved the essence of the real hardware — and brought it to the digital domain with stunning realism.

💡 Why It Stands Out

• ✅ True-to-life capture of a full £60,000 mastering path
• ✅ Three distinct tiers for flexible CPU and tone requirements
• ✅ Instant near analog weight, glue, and dimension
• ✅ Works great on mix buses, masters, stems, and subgroups
• ✅ Genesis exclusive – no third-party host required

Near analog… we don’t pretend to be analog, we don't market our products as analog, but we think we are nearer than most — we’ll let the user decide.
