PLUG-IN COLLECTIVE: ACUSTICA CREAM2

PLUG-IN COLLECTIVE: ACUSTICA CREAM2

This month we’re teaming with Acustica Audio for the first time. They are an exciting company based out of Italy and are offering their very powerful channel strip: Cream2.

This channel strip is modelled off of some old iconic, British built hardware that can give an extra element of warmth to your mixes.

Now that’s what I call a freebie.

Years ago I bought a VRM box on sale. This is the purchase that keeps on giving! Thanks for the heads up @Pragi

I'm guessing this will give warmth to my CPU... 

(THANK YOU Focusrite and Acustica! )

Focusrite always gets the good stuff while Novation gets the leftovers.

my first acustica plugin, let's see if the hype is real ?

Totally lost on this one!! Completed the purchase, took me to Box where the downloads reside. Download the vsts, no explanation to install with this Aquarius app thingy. All I got was the Comp part of the strip. All other parts of the strip must be authorized. Wtf?????? I GIVE UP!! HELP!!!!

I bought a Focusrite Solo some years ago for my laptop, that I sold last year.

I've gotten several times the value of the Solo in plugins, even after I sold it.

As you say, this is the purchase that keeps on giving!

Worked fine for me, but it's not the first plugin I installed from them. The best way is to install their Aquarius app, login in it, open the 'Purchased' tab and you should see it there with the option to install it. Good luck!

Btw, it is worth the effort...

PM'ed.

Registered but didn't bother to install.  I don't like how they install things.  I have every effect from Izotope, Melda, and IK.  I'm pretty much done with plugins.

If you don't need your code - I will use it.

Thanks

Things were much simpler back when I just had to decide which Cakewalk plugin to use...

This is definitely not my company! I hate those kind of blackbox installers (Aquarius) and it seems there is no other way. More and more I pass on plugins (even free) using such intrusive installation/authorization processes. There are very good plugins on the market that allow you to control the installation and that have a really user-friendly authorization method (either included in your download or with an authorization file) that allows you to reinstall without problems on a new system (even if you are not online!).

Lots of rust on that plugin.

Seriously though, starting to wish I had a Focusrite interface.   They have had some nice add-ons including this one I'd be happy to have.

Love my Focusrite Scarlett 2i2 3rd Gen!
