Post Description

Tube Amp Ultra 530 VST/AU/AAX plug-in (briefly U530) based on the popular sound studio preamp ENGL® E530, having a wide range of tone. On this basis, you can customize the sound of the powerful hi-gain to bright crunch and crystal clean tone. We hope that many musicians will use U530 in its arsenal.

Modeling

No waveshapers, and EQ. We use only clean solution of nonlinear differential equations for the most realistic simulation. Tube Amp Ultra 530 (U530) is full circuit simulation of E530 preamp. Furthermore, the U530 has additional features. Simulation of three 12ax7 dual triode models. From old RCA triode to fresh RSD. Allowed processing samplerates at 44.1 48 88.2 96 Khz. Two computing engines make same things but in different way. Fast computing engine based on usage Artificial Neural Networks to approximate nonlinearity of solution nonlinear differential equations. Precision computing engine - for just-in-time solution of nonlinear differential equation at circuit simulation.

Preamp section

4 channels, Clean, Crunch, Soft Lead, Heavy Lead, 3 band EQ for Clean/Crunch, 4 band EQ for Soft/Heavy Lead, separate channel volumes, preamp defeat switch, Bright switch, Contour switch.
Poweramp section

Class-A Tube Amplifier based on pentode 6V6 with feedback loop and Presence control. Poweramp section take into account cabinet resonance properties. If Cabinet simulation switched off, poweramp section operates in neutral mode witch make you possibilities to use your own impulse responses captured with coloring of poweramp tubes.
Cabinet section

Cabinet simulation based on impulse responses of eight famous guitar cabinets. Precision 2D positioning of microphone. It is based on:

Additional features

Additional modes for clean and lead channels: Lo Clean Boost increase input signal level twice for Clean Low mode to better warm up tube stages. E430 turn Lead channel tonestack to tonestack of E430 floor preamp. Stereo chorus for stereo widening adds more character to the clean sound. All sections can be switched off separately. It provide you possibility make plugin chain and insert another plug-in inside U530 processing pipeline.


nJoy!
