He told me some interesting stuff:

Waves are a really pretty dodgy company. They are an Israeli operation who got loads of US $$$ to develop "defence" stuff, and Waves is a spin-off company who are using some of that tech in an audio DSP way. Plug-in effects paid for by the war machine!

They also have a policy of paying people to pose as recording artists to try and find studios who are using hooky plugs. This I think is dishonest and wasting of recording ...]]> Tue, 04 Dec 2012 16:46:33 +0000 Joe on Abbey Road/vintage audio plugins http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/recording-and-musicology/abbey-roadvintage-audio-plugins/#p60761 Recording and musicology http://www.beatlesbible.com/forum/recording-and-musicology/abbey-roadvintage-audio-plugins/#p60761 REDD console plugins, for that Abbey Road sound: http://www.waves.com/content.a.....x?id=12064

I was at Abbey Road Studios last month (forgot to publish the photos, sorry) and there was an old REDD desk in the hallway. At least I think it was - gunmetal grey with the old-style faders etc.

Anyway, there are various audio plugins around that let people emulate the 1960s sound. When they come up please post links here.
