G-Sonique has rolled out a brand new plug-in that mimics various valve-based saturation circuits. The Valve System VA645 aims to respond to incoming signals just like analog hardware, promising to deliver diverse tonal characteristics without harsh-sounding distortions.
Musicians will first notice the Input dial, which controls the signal level entering the processor and lets users manage how much saturation gets applied to their audio tracks. Producers can play around with Pentode and Triode knobs to blend two different valve emulations, with additional fine-tuning possible through the Tube Voltage control.
The plug-in's personality changes further with a three-position dial offering Modern, Old/Vintage, and Soviet valve emulations. Sound designers can introduce some analog characters by adjusting the variable Analog Hiss control for those who find the results too pristine. After processing, the signal passes through a high-pass filter before reaching the Output Volume control.
Technically, Valve System VA645 supports Windows computers running XP and newer versions, available as a VST plug-in. Music producers can grab this new tool right away at a wallet-friendly price of €39, making it an accessible option for those looking to add some vintage warmth to their digital sound.
