Black

Authentic Analog Sound Recreation

Black is a suite of plugins from Acqua consisting of two FREE players that focus on gain staging in a big way. The standard version of the Black plugin is powerful and impressive on its own, and the Black Guru plugin takes analog recreation to a whole new level

The goal is to provide two simple, easy-to-use players that would bring even more life to our preamp emulations, while handling filtering and saturation intuitively. Black makes gain staging in the digital domain a breeze, finding the optimal gain levels while keeping the source in a perfectly balanced range, and distortion levels under control. Pro audio engineers looking for accurate and precise results will notice the difference in their mixes immediately

Keep an eye on this plugin suite, as additional volumes will be released in the future. Choose from an exciting range of preamp emulations (modern, vintage, discontinued, standard, or custom hardware) to get exactly the sound you need
