Exploring the Enhanced Features of Acustica Audio’s Amber 4 Ultra Plug-in Suite

  • by

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 Aria engine for improved performance. This updated suite includes accurate models of Class A equipment such as EQs, a compressor, and a preamp, with upgraded graphics and audio quality.

The suite includes two EQ plug-ins, Amber 4 Ultra and Amber 4 Stereo Ultra. Both have the same 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 option that allows users to adjust mid, left/right, and side signals. On the other hand, Amber 4 Stereo Ultra provides separate control over the left/mid and right/side channels. According to Acustica, the former is regarded as one of the most powerful parametric EQs with low noise in the digital realm, while the latter is said to be one of the most musically transparent EQ choices in their lineup.

The Amber 4 Comp Ultra emulates a Class-A opto compressor using Hyper technology for transparent dynamics processing. It includes typical compressor parameters, as well as features like side-chain filtering, stereo linking options, a control for blending 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. Each unit has basic controls for input and output levels, as well as preamp gain and high-pass filter settings. The collection includes at least eight different emulations of preamps.

The new Aira engine has enabled each plug-in to have dynamic and real-time metering displays, along with the company's Anti-Aliasing algorithm. Additionally, there has been a decrease in CPU usage compared to the previous versions of the plug-ins.

System Requirements

Amber 4 Ultra is compatible with Windows 10 or 11 for PC users and macOS 10.15 and above for Mac users. Users can choose from VST2, VST3, AU, and AAX plug-in versions.

The Amber 4 Ultra is currently on sale for €89 until February 26, 2024. After this date, the price will increase to €209. Get it now while it's still available!
