You have arrived at the Amber 4 Ultra plug-in suite created by Acustica Audio.
Acustica Audio has released a new version of their Amber 4 plug-in suite called Amber 4 Ultra, which utilizes their Hyper technology and new Aria engine to provide improved graphics and audio quality. This updated suite offers accurate models of Class A equipment such as EQs, compressors, and preamps.
The suite includes two EQ plug-ins called Amber 4 Ultra and Amber 4 Stereo Ultra. They both have the same controls, but the Stereo variant has separate controls for each channel. Each plug-in has four bands with frequency and gain controls. The low- and high-mid bands have a width parameter, while the low- and high-frequency bands have a control to switch between peak and shelf filter types.
Amber 4 Ultra offers a continuous control for adjusting mid, left/right, and side signals. On the other hand, Amber 4 Stereo Ultra allows for separate control over the left/mid and right/side channels. Acustica claims that the former is a highly powerful parametric EQ with low noise in the digital realm, while the latter is one of the most musically transparent EQ options in their collection.
The Amber 4 Comp Ultra simulates a Class-A opto compressor using Hyper technology for clear dynamics processing. It includes typical compressor controls as well as extras like side-chain filtering, stereo linking options, a blend control for mid, left/right, and side signals, and built-in parallel compression.
Amber 4 Pre Ultra offers a variety of Class A preamp designs, including both solid-state and valve-based options. There are eight different emulations to choose from, each with easy-to-use controls for input and output levels, as well as Preamp (gain) and Filter (high-pass) settings.
The new Aira engine enables each plug-in to have dynamic and real-time metering displays, as well as the company's Anti-Aliasing algorithm. Additionally, the plug-ins have lower CPU usage compared to their older versions.
System Requirements
To use Amber 4 Ultra, you will need a PC with Windows 10 or 11, or a Mac with macOS 10.15 or newer. The plug-in versions available include VST2, VST3, AU, and AAX.
