You have arrived at the Amber 4 Ultra plug-in suite by Acustica Audio.
The newest release from Acustica Audio utilizes their Hyper technology and new Aria engine to offer an upgraded version of their well-known Amber 4 plug-in suite. Amber 4 Ultra features accurate models of Class A equipment such as EQs, a compressor, and a preamp, all with improved graphics and audio quality.
The suite includes two EQ plug-ins called 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 feature that allows users to adjust mid, left/right, and side signals individually. On the other hand, Amber4 Stereo Ultra allows for separate control over the left/mid and right/side channels. Acustica claims that the former is one of the most effective parametric EQs with minimal noise in the digital realm, while the latter is known for its musical transparency among their EQ options.
The Amber 4 Comp Ultra emulates a Class-A opto compressor using Hyper technology for clear dynamics processing. It includes standard compressor controls as well as extra features 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 is the final part of the collection and offers a variety of eight emulations of Class A preamp designs, including both solid-state and valve-based units. These units have easy-to-use controls for input and output levels, as well as Preamp (gain) and Filter (high-pass) settings.
With the introduction of the Aira engine, all the plug-ins now have the ability to show dynamic and real-time metering displays. They also include the company's Anti-Aliasing algorithm and have lower CPU usage than the previous versions.
Amber 4 Ultra is compatible with computers running Windows 10 or 11, as well as Macs with macOS 10.15 or newer. It offers VST2, VST3, AU, and AAX plug-in options.
The Amber 4 Ultra is currently in stock and can be purchased for a special price of €89 until February 26, 2024. After this date, the price will increase to €209.
