Introducing AcusticaAudio's American VCA Comp emulator yGrey

AcusticaAudio has released Gray as a Christmas present.

Sound demo

This is good!

If you apply it too hard, the sound will become distorted and come forward.

The Kick distortion is especially pleasant, and it goes well with Trap and 808 Kick.

Once installed, four plugins will appear.

・GREY
・GREYZL
・GREYULTRA
・GREYULTRAZL

GREY and GREYULTRA are the presence or absence of graphs.
(GREYULTRA comes with a graph)

And the ZL at the end means zero latency, which increases the CPU load a little.

There is a considerable difference between 35.28ms for GREY and 2.99ms for GREYZL.

Overview

Gray is the latest Acqua plugin suite available in various formats (VST/VST3/AAX/AU). It closely emulates the famous American VCA-based compressor, well known for its ability to enhance bass cohesion and provide classic, vintage character with minimal distortion. This plug-in is a must-have for mixing engineers looking for the ultimate in drum & bass compression. Gray is available as a suite containing two types of plug-ins: Gray (standard version) and Gray Ultra (full version, with metering system with real-time waveform display and knee display). The Gray suite accurately reproduces this vibrant VCA compression while introducing new features that address the needs of modern studios and provide modern flexibility. With this plug-in, you can easily capture the iconic compressor sound that has graced many hit tracks. Gray suite is an “Over Easy” plugin, perfect for studios looking for user-friendly tools that deliver instant results with minimal effort. It shines when handling vocals or tight, impactful percussive sounds, reminiscent of the iconic drum compression of the 2s. It truly shines when faced with aggressive transient sources, producing the famous and legendary "thwack" effect. Additionally, Gray complies with Acustica's latest quality and performance standards and boasts an enhanced graphical interface. It features a state-of-the-art Aria engine that supports dynamic, real-time metering displays and advanced anti-aliasing algorithms. If you're looking for the ultimate classic 1970's sound, give it a try.

Major features

• Hyper 3 technology.
• Two types of plugins are available: Gray (standard version) and Gray Ultra (full version).
• New “anti-aliasing” algorithm that significantly reduces plugin aliasing issues.
