A.M.T Amp Leveler is a look-ahead Brickwall Limiter and Level Maximization. It has been designed to be used for Mixing, Mastering, Tracking and Live use.
A.M.T Max Warm is a look-ahead Brickwall Limiter, Equalizer and Level Maximizer. What makes the A.M.T Max Warm process unique is the approach used for its dynamic signal analysis. Internally, the A.M.T Max Warm uses a special processing algorithm to accurately maximize the incoming signal level while limiting the ceiling peak levels. This approach tends to produce a more natural warm-sound, the A.M.T Max Warm also includes a two-band equalizer (Shelving/Peaking) with adjustable frequencies.
A.M.T Multi Max multiband peak limiter is a 3 band look-ahead Brickwall Limiter, and Level Maximizer. The A.M.T Multi Max uses a special processing algorithm to accurately split and maximize the incoming signal level while limiting the ceiling peak levels. This approach tends to produce a loud and clear natural warm-sound. The A.M.T Multi Max 3 band crossover with adjustable frequencies delivers sweet highs and punchy lows.
Retrology Motown, a collection of two plug-ins, Retro Film-Tone and Retro Music-Tone, designed to improve the quality of digital sound recordings. These plug-ins recreate the warm sound qualities of legendary analog hardware passive equalizers used by Motown engineers. The plug-ins provide a simple and functional “Vintage/Retro-Style” interface, as well as low CPU consumption.
Retro Music-Tone is a 7-band passive equalizer plug-in emulation of the hardware version used exclusively by Motown engineers. It provides a close emulation of the original units which introduces Proportional Q, a feature where small boost/cuts will have a broad Q and greater boost/cuts will have a narrower Q.
Retro Film-Tone is also a 7-band passive equalizer with fixed frequencies and Proportional Q emulation of the hardware version used exclusively by Motown engineers. It provides a close emulation of the original units which introduces Proportional Q, a feature where small boost/cuts will have a broad Q and greater boost/cuts will have a narrower Q.
Retrology E-Tone & Filter, a collection of two plug-ins that digitally recreate the Equalizer and Presence Filter which were part of a famous 1970s transfer desk (mastering console) . Designed to improve the quality of digital sound recordings, these plug-ins provide a simple and functional "vintage-style" interface, as well as low CPU consumption.
Retro E-Tone is a four-band semi-parametric equalizer with selectable frequencies and five shapes on each band. The Shape control provides Shelf low, Shelf high, Broad, Medium, and Sharp bell curves. It provides a close emulation of the EQ modules from a famous 1970s transfer desk (mastering console). These consoles have been the centerpiece of famous mastering rooms for more than thirty years. Nomad Factory added ±2 dB to the control gain and each band can be turned on/off individually using a switch.
Retro E-Filter (Presence Filter) includes High Pass, Low Pass and Presence controls. The Presence control provide ±12dB of boost or cut (Nomad Factory added ±2 dB to the Presence control) on eight frequencies that are the same shape as the Medium setting on the Retro E-Tone Equalizer. It provides a close emulation of the Filter modules from a famous mastering console. As with many vintage devices, simplicity of operation belies the magic of their sound.
Nomad Factory and NUSofting have announced that they are collaborating to create a new range of “top-of-the-line” virtual instruments. The first fruit of this collaboration is the Analogue Strings Station, an advanced emulation of vintage electronic keyboards.
Analogue Strings Station (ASS) is an advanced emulation of the vintage electronic keyboards known as “String Ensemble Synthesizers” or “String Machines”, which where invented around 1970 and became a huge success with the introduction of the Eminent Solina String Ensemble. The ASS project started at NUSofting as a digital model of the Solina and was then extended to a versatile polyphonic synthesizer but still retaining the warm core sound of the vintage string synthesizers.
Differently to other string machine emulations available as virtual instruments, the ASS doesn't use samples recorded from the original hardware keyboards, NUSofting developed a native emulation of the “octave divider” circuitry that is the essential technology of the vintage polyphonic synthesizers. The ASS digital “octave divider” can reproduce the same “phase synced” sound of the original Solina, Crumar Performer and similar vintage keyboards.
The ASS digital “octave divider”, in Nomad Factory's opinion, better serves the reproduction of the chords played with a real “String Synthesizers” compared to the usual sampling technology which first splits and then reassembles the sound key by key, not mentioning that the ASS only use 20 MB of your drive space.
Another essential sounding element of the “String Machines” is the so called Ensemble effect, the ASS Ensemble effect was also modeled after the original Solina circuitry and extended with more parameters and wider ranges for these, allowing the ASS user to many more sublime chorus effects suitable to the original string machine sound.
The Analogue Strings Station is a must have for all musicians who recognize the power of a sound that as marked an era and still looks to the future. The sound of string machines is heard in works from artists like Vangelis, Genesis, Jean Michel Jarre, Pink Floyd, Ultravox, Air David Bowie, Kraftwerk, Goldfrapp, Beck and many more.
