Product Description
Adding 5 types of valve saturation to your tracks, the Audified STA Preamp 2 is the core effect of the STA series. The precise simulation of several valve circuits gives the STA effects their unique analog feel and warmth.
ONE OF THE SIX
STA Effects is a bundle of six plug-ins containing the Flanger, Phaser, Chorus, Delay and Enhancer. The sixth one, the Preamp, is the core engine to all of these. It became so popular among users that Audified were forced to also offer it as a standalone product.
FIVE VALVE CIRCUIT MODES AVAILABLE
The valve saturation color of the STA Effects depends on the Mode selection. Changing the type of the tube circuit affects the tube working point and frequency response.
- P - Presence – a higher amount of mid-high frequencies allows better cutting through the mix
- V - Vintage – has smoother highs and more even harmonics
- B - Brown – has an almost flat response with only light high frequencies rolling off and nice higher harmonics punch
- W - White – has a higher amount of higher frequencies and a balanced ratio between the even and odd harmonics
- L - LoFi – contains less low and high frequencies
COMMON EFFECTS
The ordinary digital effects mix their wet and dry signals as simple as A+B=C. This is as cool as all standards you may rely on. When dealing with vacuum tubes, there is also another approach possible. STA (Summing Tube Amplifier) uses two signal paths, one is processed by modulation or spectral change and the other is not processed. These two signals are mixed using a vacuum tube. This gives “ordinary” effects like Flanger or Phaser a really unique and warm character.
