HoRNet AnalogStage

We are excited to announce the release of the latest update for HoRNet AnalogStage, our analog console emulation plugin that brings the warmth and character of vintage analog gear to your digital audio workstation. Whether you’re working with mixing or mastering, AnalogStage delivers the rich, harmonic distortion and subtle colorations that define the best analog consoles.

The new version, 1.1.5, is a maintenance release that includes several important fixes and improvements aimed at enhancing performance and usability. These updates ensure that the plugin works more smoothly across different environments and offers a more intuitive user experience, making it even more reliable for both professionals and those new to analog emulation.

What’s New in Version 1.1.5?

Fixed Group Parameters Not Being Passed in Logic Pro X When Transport is Stopped: One of the issues we’ve addressed in this update is related to group parameters not being passed correctly when the transport was stopped in Logic Pro X. This issue was causing problems when trying to automate group controls, especially when trying to tweak settings during playback pauses or when the session was stopped. With the 1.1.5 update, this behavior has been fixed, ensuring smoother operation and more reliable parameter passing, even during session playback or pause. This fix means that users of Logic Pro X will now experience a more stable workflow, with fewer interruptions when editing and automating the controls that define the character of the plugin.

Improved Usability by Disabling Controls When Saturation or Auto Gain Are Disabled: We’ve also made improvements to the user interface (UI) for better clarity and usability. In previous versions, when saturation or auto gain were disabled, the plugin still displayed their respective controls, which could lead to confusion. Now, in version 1.1.5, we’ve made sure that all controls related to saturation and auto gain will be grayed out and disabled when these functions are not active. This streamlining of the interface ensures that you can focus only on the relevant settings at any given time, reducing potential distractions and making the plugin more intuitive to use. The more intuitive and clean interface helps you to make quicker decisions without getting bogged down by unnecessary options, allowing you to focus on crafting the perfect sound.

Enhanced Tube Model: Perhaps the most significant improvement in this update is the enhancement of the tube model. The tube model in HoRNet AnalogStage has been refined to more accurately emulate the behavior of vintage analog equipment, delivering more natural warmth, and dynamic distortion. Analog gear is revered for its ability to add color and depth to mixes, and this updated tube model helps you recreate that same organic character with more precision than ever before. The update makes sure that tube saturation and harmonic distortion are even more pronounced, giving you the ability to inject more character and warmth into your mix, whether you’re processing individual tracks or your entire mix bus.

The new tube model also provides a more realistic response to how analog equipment interacts with your audio signal, particularly in the way it responds to dynamic changes. When you push the input harder, the tubes saturate in a way that mimics the physical behavior of real analog gear, allowing for more authentic distortion and harmonic generation. This gives your tracks a richer, more dynamic sound while still retaining the clarity of your mix.

Enhanced Workflow and Flexibility: Beyond the functional updates, version 1.1.5 also improves the overall workflow and flexibility of HoRNet AnalogStage. With the new fixes and enhancements, the plugin is more efficient in terms of CPU usage, especially when used in larger projects with multiple instances of the plugin. This ensures that you can use HoRNet AnalogStage in demanding sessions without compromising on performance.

Whether you’re working on an entire mix or applying subtle effects to individual elements, HoRNet AnalogStage ensures that you’re getting the very best of both worlds: the warmth and texture of analog sound with the convenience and flexibility of a digital plugin.
