Verdigris

Modules

• Tube Input Stage — Selectable 100V/200V/300V B+ voltage with adjustable aging parameters.
• 4-Band Parametric EQ — High-precision console-style filters with thermal frequency drift simulation.
• Dynamics Suite — Switchable Variable-Mu and Precision VCA compressors + dedicated Photo-Optical Leveler.
• Tube Saturation — Independent full-spectrum tube saturator.
• M/S Matrix — High-precision Mid/Side processing with Transformer (Iron) or Linear (Precision) modes.
• Output Stage — Three transformer models: Punchy, Fat, and Transparent.

Individual Modules Included

Verdigris v1.0.1 also includes standalone versions of each module (VerdEQ / VerdComp / VerdDrive / VerdMS / VerdLimiter, etc.) in the same package. A single license unlocks all VerdModules.

Design

Rather than cloning a specific piece of hardware, Verdigris focuses on simulating the physical interactions between analog components — tube nonlinearities, transformer magnetic saturation, and thermal drift — for highly musical final-stage processing.

Technical Specifications

• Processing: Full stereo path with SIMD optimization (SSE4.1 / AVX2 / NEON).
