Audio Hertz AC-1 v1.2.1 [WiN, MacOSX]

Warm up or cool down whatever you put through it

Inspired by the dashboard of almost every car made in the 90s, AC-1 is a unique audio processor that combines both saturation and filtered downsampling effects to create an incredibly intuitive and powerful tone-shaping tool.

Warm up your tracks with two separate saturation circuits using a custom distortion algorithm that emulates the sound of analog tape and tube gear. Go from a gentle lift to absolute destruction by turning up the heat. Cool down your tracks with the filtered downsampling effect, which creates a lo-fi and retro sound that is reminiscent of classic samplers and drum machines. The additional filters allow for broad stroke control, ensuring you'll always be able to sculpt the sound for any mix.
