Acustica Audio Jade 2 2023 [WiN]

Jade 2 is composed of 6 different hardware units merged into 3 EQ emulations, 2 dynamics processors, and a completely new preamplifier section. Magic In the "Air" Jade 2 could easily be considered one of the most versatile plugin suites we've ever created. Not only does it deliver a deep, warm, sophisticated sound, it's also the ultimate choice for adding a touch of top-end sheen to your tracks. Jade adds light and "air" and to any source (even reverbs!), during both mixing and mastering. Jade 2 EQ: 3 selectable equalizers for ultimate tone shaping. Model A is derived from an American hardware unit famous for its ultrahigh-frequency band. The original unit is characterized by a maximum positive gain excursion of +10dB for each frequency. Our emulation includes the corresponding -10dB negative range for each frequency, in order to offer extended versatility. Model B is based on a powerful unit introduced on the market in 1994 and built in the UK. Model C is a hybrid equalizer, merging 2 different equalizers (C1 and C2) into a single processor. Comp/Limiter Jade 2 is equipped with two dynamics processors: a discrete Class-A compressor (D) and a peak limiter (E). The main idea behind the original unit is to provide a transparent, musical control of dynamics. These emulations can be activated and used individually (C/D) or simultaneously (C + D). If both emulations are used at the same time, their behavior is in series, so the limiter module will follow that of the compressor. The behavior and the sound of these dynamic processors may vary based on Jade's dynamic routing control in the channel strip version. Note: Jade 2's compressor follows the improvements that have been made on all of Acustica's latest compressors. The overflow problem that could occur when input signal levels were too high has been resolved, and it is now possible to act on the input trim even with signals close to 0dB. The compression curve has also been extended to allow compression of very low signals. Jade 2 Preamp Jade 2's standalone preamp section includes a faithful emulation of a unique, Class-A mic preamplifier/mixer for recording engineers who want a highly flexible audio path without compromising on the sound quality sound. 5 preamp models (A, B, C1, C2, D) are included in the Jade channel-strip, as well as in the Jade 2 preamp (under the "custom" bank/category). They are based on a collection of var­ious top-quality hardware units, whose harmonic content and frequency response are readily available for use on your tracks. The preamp section also includes several preamp emulations divided into six banks (Line, Mic, Fat, Tape, Bus, Cust) plus unique high-pass and low-pass filters. You'll be amazed at the endless variety of distinct palette of tones Jade has to offer for your mix. A witch says, Library is completely decrypted, decompressed, DRM related bloat removed, and built to the clean one.
