You have arrived at the Amber 4 Ultra plug-in suite by Acustica Audio.
Acustica Audio has released a new version of their popular Amber 4 plug-in suite called Amber 4 Ultra. This version utilizes their Hyper technology and Aria engine to provide upgraded models of Class A equipment such as EQs, a compressor, and a preamp. The graphics and audio performance have also been improved in this new release.
The suite includes two EQ plug-ins called Amber 4 Ultra and Amber 4 Stereo Ultra. Both have similar controls, but the Stereo version 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 feature that allows users to adjust mid, left/right, and side signals. On the other hand, Amber4 Stereo Ultra allows for separate control of the left/mid and right/side channels. Acustica claims that the former is one of the most powerful parametric EQs with low noise in the digital realm, while the latter is touted as one of the most musically transparent EQ options in their lineup.
The Amber 4 Comp Ultra emulates a Class-A opto compressor using Hyper technology to provide a clear dynamics processor. It includes standard compressor controls as well as features like side-chain filtering, adjustable stereo linking, 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 units. Each design features a basic set of controls for adjusting input and output levels, as well as preamp gain and high-pass filter settings.
The updated Aira engine enables the plug-ins to provide dynamic and real-time metering displays, along with the company's Anti-Aliasing algorithm. Additionally, the new plug-ins have reduced CPU usage compared to the older versions.
