To put it simply, if you’re looking for a convincing, authentic saturator for any style of music, you can’t go wrong with Fire The Pump.

Old-school analog saturation used to manifest itself in the mix as a combination of harmonic distortion and soft knee compression. Vacuum tube preamplifiers and tape machines naturally saturate every track, creating a distinct sonic character that consists of gentle distortion, dynamic compression and a slight increase in low frequencies. Today, we describe this type of sound as “warm” or “analog.”

Thanks to our Hyper Saturation technology, Acustica is able to offer this classic sound in the digital domain, with even truer-to-life, more convincing saturation than ever before. It emulates the character of analog recording equipment with powerful plugins that feature a low CPU consumption, preserving sound quality and adding warmth while also ensuring better stability
