Fuse Audio Labs - VPRE-72
EPIC TUBE SOUND. FOR FREE.
RECORDING HISTORY
Some pieces of classic studio equipment just don't need an introduction: Here is the VPRE-72! The archetypal preamp was released in the early 1950s and built by several iconic brands such as Maihak, TAB, Siemens and TFK. A legend in itself to the present day, the V72 also became the blueprint for the later V76 and the classic REDD.47 preamps used on numerous Beatles sessions.1
THE REAL THING
Divine and subtle – this is why you hear the magic of this aerial tube pre on countless kicks, snares, vocals and basses all over the world. The VPRE-72 catches the exact spirit with a faithful emulation of the input and output transformers, the dual EF804s pentode circuit with its peculiar feedback structure, as well as the heavy output choke which produces a subtle touch of air.
AND THEN SOME
The VPRE-72 is as straight forward as it gets: Use the Drive control to apply as much tube circuit glory as your signal needs, or even push it a little further for some gentle and truly musical saturation. No matter how far you go, the gain is always compensated, and the added V76-style low and high cut filters let you shape the results to your liking in no time at all.
THE BEST PRES...
…in life are free? Certainly not – especially in the case of highly sought after vintage devices. The VPRE-72 is a different story, though, since we're offering it completely for free without any ifs or buts. Enjoy it, and make sure to not miss our tried and trusted grouping feature, which comes in super handy when using the preamp as the first insert across your session.

BlauKraut Charlatan3
Charlatan is a polyphonic, subtractive virtual analog (VA) synthesizer plugin with focus on sound quality and easy usability. It comes with a flexible, yet not overwhelming feature set which encourages artists to start tweaking instead of just relying on presets. Inspite of it's simplicity, Charlatan's architecture is flexible enough to create both classic sounds and rather experimental noises. While making no compromise about sound quality, the sound engine has been highly optimized for efficient CPU usage making Charlatan well suited as a "bread and butter" synth even in projects with a large number of plugin instances.
Best of all, it's FREEWARE! Enjoy!

Analog Obsession FETcb
Forgotten Beast Alive!
70s era FET Limiter/Compressor from UK!
Colorful and all around Limiter/Compressor for every source.
It was my first re-design while I build hardwares. But in digital version, I changed little bit. Just removed INPUT and added THRESHOLD. Normally, THRESHOLD is fixed and you can adjust compression level by driving INPUT.
Now, it's more versatile but still colorful!

Linda Audio Hyperdrive
The core of Hyperdrive are three distortion models - one diode and two tubes. You can adjust its drive and bias and engage additional gain boost. Distortion goes from really subtle saturation to rich screaming distortion especially with the Tube 2 selected. You can adjust input signal gain, output gain and mix of dry and wet signal.
In the center of the plugin interface there are three filters - hi pass, low pass and peak filter. Each with adjustable frequency and resonance, peak filter has also peak gain (can boost or take off selected frequencies). Each filter can be engaged before or after distortion stage by the pre/post switch.
On the left side of the plugin interface there is envelope follower with adjustable attack and release times and sensitivity, while on the right side is LFO. LFO can be synchronized with host tempo or free and you can select from four shapes - sinus, square, saw or reverse saw. Speed of the free LFO can also be modulated by envelope follower.
Both envelope follower and LFO can modulate filter frequencies, peak filter gain and distortion drive. This can really bring things to life.
Hyperdrive also provides undo, redo, A/B and 20 presets.
