Ace

Ace free amp-simulator by Shattered Glass Audio

Ace is a free amp simulator VST, Audio Unit plugin developed by Shattered Glass Audio. Compatible OS(s): Windows 64b, macOS.

Ace is a faithful digital emulation of a legendary 1950s, American, all tube, tweed, 5W amp. We have added to the model two of the most common amplifier mods: adjustment of the amount of feedback and addition of grid stopper resistors, both of which can be turned off for the original amp sound.

Simple controls and a conservative CPU usage make ACE easy to use in live settings as well as for re-amping.

Features:

  • Accurate modeling of the whole circuit to capture dynamic interactions between amp stages.
  • Authentic 12AX7 and 6V6GT vacuum tube models.
  • Models of the two most common amp mods.
  • Adjustable strength of the input signal with up to 12 dB boost.
  • Cabinet simulation that can be switched on or off.
  • Selectable 2x, 4x, or 8x oversampling.

ABX Compressor Test VST

ZynAddSubFX free software-synthesizer by paulnasca 2

ABX Compressor Test VST is a free compressor VST plugin developed by Michael Gruhn Audio. Compatible OS(s): Windows.

ABX Compressor Test is a research VST plug-in that implements 18 different compressor modes – that is 18 more or less significantly different algorithms. It was created to research how a good compressor should sound (and therefore how it must be designed).

All compressor designs are feed-forward and peak-detecting. The side-chain is always not filtered. The signal path is also unfiltered, that is it contains no sound enhancing of any kind (except for the gain adjustment performed by compression).

Different modes
The different modes comprise different envelope follower types, different transfer functions as well as different inter-operation between the internal parts of the compressor. The modes are numbered from 1 to 18, the literals in parenthesis hint at the difference and can be interpreted as follows:

  • HQR = High quality transfer function (ratio).
  • LQR = Low quality transfer function (ratio).
  • S = Smooth operation (release).

Anyone is free to use and share this VST plug-in as long as they evaluate the different compressor modes to the best of their knowledge and report their findings and comments in this thread in the KVRAudio.com forum (where the plug-in is available for download).
