Acustica Audio have released Aubergine, available at the intro price of €89.00, increasing to €179.00 after the promotion. The offer ends May 1st.
The Aubergine Plugin Suite blends Professor Malcolm Toft’s legendary analog designs with Acustica Audio’s advanced digital technology. With sampling expertise from Nik Georgiev, it delivers an authentic 1970s sound with powerful EQ and saturation features. This suite offers vintage warmth and modern flexibility, making it perfect for professionals seeking high-quality mixing tools. It integrates effortlessly into your DAW, providing versatile options for both modern and classic sound shaping.
Aubergine consists of two core products:
- Aubergine Toft 70’s Strip: A complete channel strip offering vintage Pre-Post-Linked EQ, a vintage-style preamp emulation and a powerful saturator.
This plugin features a four-band EQ with independent pre-post-linked saturation routing, offering flexible sound shaping. The Low and High Shelving EQs have selectable cutoff frequencies at 80Hz/120Hz and 8kHz/12kHz, while the semi-parametric mid bands provide six selectable frequencies, spanning 100Hz–1.5kHz for the Low Mid and 1kHz–15kHz for the High Mid. It also includes pre and post high- and low-pass filters with ranges from 20Hz to 350Hz and 1.5kHz to 20kHz, a vintage-style preamp, and a powerful saturation section for rich harmonic enhancement.
- Aubergine Punishr Saturator: A Harmonic saturation plugin derived from Toft’s famed hardware saturation designs, with the ability to add three distinct types of harmonic saturation (SYM, ASYM and IRON). Details:
SYM (Symmetrical): Symmetrical distortion, where both sides of the waveform are clipped equally.
ASYM (Asymmetrical): Asymmetrical distortion, where only one side of the waveform is clipped.
IRON: Iron transformer saturation, providing a warm, analog-like distortion.
Aubergine is available to PC and Mac users (VST3, AU and AAX).
