Introduction
For more than 50 years, music meant vinyl records. Vinyl was the format for everyone, from teenagers with portable record
players to critical audiophile listeners. Vinyl records were relatively affordable and easy to store. They could be played on any
turntable, and they sounded great. Vinyl’s purely analogue production and playback processes, and its standardized
frequency and dynamic specifications, yielded a listening experience that’s different and some argue, more life - like than
digital processes. Reproduction of sound in this analogue format was in many ways subjective, so there were heated
disagreements over tone arms, styluses, platters, motors, and other minutiae of turntables. At the same time, records were
subject to scratches, dust, warping, and more, so practices about caring for, cleaning, and storing these disks developed into
fetishes. Despite this, people loved their vinyl records because they provided unbeatable sound.
It’s this sound that Waves delivers in the Abbey Road Vinyl plugin. It doesn’t just add pops, clicks, and band limiting. Instead it
dissects the technical elements that gave vinyl its sound and it lets you deliver anything from a very subtle recreation of vinyl
for discerning listeners, to aggressive vinyl artifacts for club settings. While bringing you the attributes that make vinyl what it
is, Abbey Road Vinyl is not bound to the physical limitations of records, such as loudness. You create and control the
personality of vinyl rather than being a slave to it.
At the end of this manual is a description of the technology of the production and playback of the vinyl records. This should
help you understand the physical world that the Vinyl plugin is recreating. There’s also a brief history of vinyl records to help
put things in perspective.

Chapter 1: Components
Abbey Road Vinyl has four components:
1. Abbey Road Vinyl Mono Mono to Mono
2. Abbey Road Vinyl Stereo Stereo to Stereo
3. Abbey Road Vinyl Mono Lite Mono to Mono
4. Abbey Road Vinyl Stereo Lite Stereo to Stereo
The mono and stereo components can introduce Noise and Crackles to the selected playback Lite
Generation/Turntable/Cartridge setup, and provide control over their level and the crackle density. Lite components also
include the Slow Down effect controls. They do not include the modelled sonic attributes of the
Generation/Turntable/Cartridge functions, as found in the full components, nor do they enable control over Tone Arm
position or Wow, Flutter, or Phase Distortion.
The Lite components require less CPU resources than the full version.

Chapter 2: Quick Start Guide
Abbey Road Vinyl emulates the entire vinyl process, from the mastering desk at Abbey Road studios, to the processing
rack and vinyl lathe (resulting in the sound of the Lacquer disk generation), to the press factory (which creates the sound of
the final printed generation). There are layback options with two turntable setups: the high end turntable that is part of the -
Abbey Road lathe or a commonly used DJ turntable. Three popular cartridges are available.-
To get started:
1. Listen to your material with the different setups. Turn the TG Desk on/off. Toggle between the different Generation,
Turntable and Cartridge options, and decide which best compliments your material and does what you want to
accomplish.
2. Adjust the Noise, Crackle and Click levels and Click Density. You may want to go for an exaggerated noisy effect
or not use this effect.
3. Adjust the Wow and Flutter Rate and Depth controls. You can exaggerate these modulation effects or remove them
altogether. Note that the values in this section change from setup to setup to match the sound and behavior of these
setups.
4. Adjust the Phase Distortion controls. Abbey Road Vinyl creates and controls phase distortion by duplicating the
input signal and sending one source through a modulator. The other source is unaffected. When the two signals are
recombined, phase distortion occurs. You can increase or decrease the level, shape, and focus of phase distortion
effect by changing the bandwidth of the modulated signal. The HP/LP filters change the spectrum of the modulated
signal.
Increasing the value of the HP filter, for example, results in a “thinner” signal going to the modulator. The recombined
signal will have less phase distortion at low frequencies. Decreasing HP distortion, conversely, results in more low-
frequency phase distortion.

Note that the values in this control section vary from setup to setup to match the sound and behavior of these setups.
5. Experiment and adjust the Tone Arm position. As the tone arm moves closer to the center of the disk, the frequency
response changes (less High Frequency boost) and harmonic distortion increases. You can automate this control to
change the sound of your material as the virtual cartridge moves from the outside to the inside of the record.
6. Determine the desired Drive levels. Driving the plugin will result in a more saturated/distorted signal. Adjusting the
Drive level does not impact loudness.
7. Experiment with the Slow Down Mechanism:
Select the Time Format you wish to use – Time or Bars, synced to your session tempo.
Double click the Length field to enter the length in time or Bars/Beats of the stopping effect you wish to apply.
You can also drag your mouse or use the keyboard arrows to change the length. If your session includes tempo
changes and you have selected Bars as your time format, the length will adjust accordingly at the tempo change
events.
Press Stop – This will slow down the playback to a full stop. This effect will take as long as the value you have
set in the Length control.
Playback is stopped until Play is pressed.
You may turn on Auto resume control for creative effects. When Auto is activated, playback will resume
immediately at the end of the slow down effect.
Experiment with automating these controls.
Note: You can stop the record from spinning by clicking the left hand side of the record. -

Controls
Input Level
Determines the level at which signal enters the plugin.
Range: -18 to +18 dB
Default: 0 dB
Reset: 0 dB
Input Drive
This control increases the level going into the plugin, while inversely decreasing the output in order to maintain equal
loudness. Higher Drive levels result in increased harmonic distortion. Note: At higher Drive levels the amplitude of the signal
may be clipped (depending on your source material), which may result in lower perceived loudness.
Range: 0 to 100
Default: 0
Reset: 0

12
Clicks Density
Adjusts the density (approximate frequency) of clicks added to the signal.
Range: Off to 100
At the lowest setting, clicks are generated randomly at a rate of approximately once in 5 to 10 seconds.
At the highest setting, up to 2 clicks are generated per second.
Range: Off to 100
Default: 20
Reset: 20
Tone Arm Position
In addition to the knob on the GUI, the Tone Arm itself is a graphic control that moves as you grab it from its base and slide it
across the record. As you move the tone arm inward, HF frequency response and harmonic distortion change in character.
Range: 0 to 100; 0=beginning of record, 100=end groove
Default: 0
Reset: 0

Phase Distortion On/Off
Turns the phase distortion effect on/off.
Range: Off, On
Default: On
Reset: On
Phase Distortion Level
The amount of phase distortion being added to the frequency range as determined by the Phase Distortion LP and HP
modulator controls.
Range: -48 to 48 dB
Default: 0 dB
Reset: 0 dB
Phase Distortion HP/LP Modulators
These controls shape the character of the phase distortion by determining which frequencies of the signal will be removed
from the overall bandwidth of the phase modulation.
This setting changes according to Generation/Turntable/Cartridge selection.
Range: 0.1 (16 Hz) to 100 (20 kHz).
Default: Setup dependent
Reset: Setup dependent
