Acustica Audio have released SKY SA-1A, available at the intro price of €109.00 increasing to €179.00 after the promotion. The offer ends December 6th.
SKY SA-1A was developed in official collaboration with Stam Audio to faithfully recreate the sound of the original SA-1A tube opto compressor.
The plugin utilizes Acustica Audio’s NOVA modeling technology, which combines hybrid Volterra and neural processing to emulate the complex interactions of the hardware’s opto cell, tubes, and transformers.
A key feature of the software is its inclusion of specific inharmonic components found in the original unit, which contribute to the unique harmonic density and character as gain reduction is adjusted.
Designed for versatility in mixing and mastering, the plugin offers flexible timing modes, parallel compression via a Dry/Wet control, and a sidechain filter with five cutoff settings.
SKY SA-1A supports high sample rates up to 96 kHz and featuring native Apple Silicon compatibility.

SKY SA-1A is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX).
