Overloud has introduced Gem Fuse. They say that, bringing together six analog-style processors in a single plugin, Fuse emulates an acclaimed modern stereo outboard unit with a level of authenticity never before achieved in software. Here's more details from the company...
Designed for the mix bus and mastering, Fuse provides the tonal color, weight, and cohesion that define great analog hardware. At its heart is Overloud's Harmonic Matching Technology, which precisely captures the frequency-dependent harmonics and "memory effect" of transformer-based circuits--where most digital emulations, even official ones, fall short.
Six Processors, One Plugin- Analog Preamp & HPF: Adds subtle coloration and warmth with a low-cut "Fat" option for preserving deep bass.
- Analog Drive: Harmonic saturation and gentle compression, from smooth thickening to aggressive tone.
- Indigo EQ: Musical low and high shelving EQ with carefully tuned phase response.
- HF Smoother: High-frequency dynamic processor for taming harshness with tape-like smoothness.
- Stereo Image: Frequency-dependent stereo enhancement based on the "Stereo Shuffling" technique.
- Transformer: Authentic low-end thickening and high-end sparkle through accurate transformer emulation.Beyond the Hardware
