The ultimate expression of Acustica's new Hyper technology!
Frost is the first channel strip plug-in based entirely on our high-performance 'Hyper' technology and one of the most versatile and creative plug-ins able to take on just about any job!
This 'British-style' channel strip is made up of three processing modules, an EQ section (1), a Dynamic section (2), and a Pre/Clipper/Saturator section (3). All of them hold up on their own, but all together, they make sparks fly!
Frost GUI
Frost embraces the first ‘Hyper’ dynamic EQ featuring high-quality oversampling, which is also present in all the plug-in sections.
This plug-in is so precisely controllable and so versatile, and its sonic character is so configurable that its use isn't limited to specific genres and tasks. Ranging from ultra-clean to warm and musical, aggressive to chilled out, it's all about supporting your choices and needs.
Features
• Hyper 'Glue' Compressor plus two Brickwall limiters.
• Hyper 'British-style' 4-band EQ plus HP-LP filters.
• Hyper Dynamic EQ mode.
• Hyper Saturation, Preamp, Clipper.
• 3 modes of operation - Classic Stereo (LR), Mid or Side.
• External Sidechain.
• Oversampling for all sections.
• Low CPU consumption.
• Resizable GUI*
*Choose between 3 magnification values (1x - 1.5x - 2x) from the top right ▼SIZE drop-down menu.
Once the desired size is selected, the plug-in must be removed and re-loaded to apply the changes. This action affects the currently selected plug-in. New instances of the same plug-in will open with this magnification.
In detail
The Frost channel strip presents three different sections:
Section 1: a ‘Sand-style’ (pun intended, considering the AA world) EQ affair inspired by one of the most ‘British’ EQs, it sounds classy, smooth and very musical with fixed Q, HF, and LF shelving curves address the extremes (3k,8k, 10k, 12k, 14kHz / 30, 60, 100, 200, and 400Hz) along with both high and low mid-band EQ with peaking curves (0.7k,0.96k, 1.3k, 1.8k, 2.5k, 3.5k, 4.8k, 6.6k, 9k,12k5 and 17kHz / 20, 28, 40, 60, 80, 120, 170, 240, 350, 490 and 700Hz) with oversampling rate buttons (1x – 2x - 4x - 8x).
This section also includes High-pass (from 65Hz to 1.5kHz) and Low-Pass (from 18kHz to 1.4kHz) cutting filters derived from the same gear.
Section 2: a ‘Sand-style’ (pun intended, considering the AA world) VCA Bus Compressor providing fast, relatively clean, and detailed compression with oversampling rate buttons (1x – 2x - 4x - 8x).
Two Brickwall limiters ( 1-2 ), the first a more ‘traditional’ and the second a more ‘pioneering’ in their conception, both based on our new ‘Hyper’ compression technology with oversampling rate buttons (1x – 2x - 4x - 8x); and a sampled Dynamic EQ option that can make for a very quick and efficient mixing and mastering workflow.
Section 3: a Preamp/Saturation/Clipping stage with the oversampling rate buttons (1x - 2x - 4x - 8x) derived from a [BTube Vari-mu compressor[/B], which can make your sound vary from subtle to extremely aggressive, but always remain musical. Sensible use of the saturation options helps a mix sound bigger, more cohesive, and more interesting.
Moreover, the plugin includes a series of additional controls: MID - SIDE – L-R buttons, a complete Input-Output meter section, and a series and external sidechain.
The signal chain is as follows:
Input → Static Eq → Compressor → Dynamic Eq → Pre → Saturation/Clipper → Output.
