SANTA CRUZ, CA, USA: Plugin Alliance, supporting all major plugin formats and uniting some of the best- known international audio companies under one virtual roof, is proud to warmly welcome a new plugin partner brand to the family. V76U73 is the first release of (original elysia co-founder) Dominik Klaßen’s new company NEOLD. The plugin creatively captures the old school vibe of one of the richest-sounding tube preamps and compressors in audio history as a painstakingly accurate emulation of the real analog circuits and gorgeous components of the Telefunken V76 and U73 to bring the wonderful tube sound of this classic vintage preamp and compressor combination to a single easy-to-use digital tool — available as of August 11…
Saying that, the V76 is not the only powerhouse of a tonal shaper from this treasured family of modules. Musically, the U73 compressor/limiter beautifully builds on this tone, adding exceptionally smooth-sounding ‘variable mu’ dynamic control that earned this tool ‘The German Fairchild’ nickname.
Needless to say, NEOLD V76U73 is a painstakingly accurate emulation of the real analog circuits and gorgeous components of the Telefunken V76 and U73 to bring the wonderful tube sound of this classic vintage preamp and compressor combination to a single easy-to-use plugin. Put it this way: while honoring the straightforward simplicity of the original modules, it also provides some features and optimizations that are only possible in plugin form. For example, a unique Linear function captures the textures of the V76 without its traditional band-limited frequency response, while the addition of a side chain Filter, Mix knob, and Stereo mode selector makes the U78 compressor even more flexible. Furthermore, automatic Gain compensation adds saturation and pleasing harmonics without ungainly jumps in level.
“NEOLD V76U73 brings that instant warm character to any source you put it on. You were lucky to have access to a pair of them in the studio; now I can get that feeling natively on as many tracks as I like.” - GRAMMY® Award-nominated mixing engineer Damien Lewis (Beyoncé, Katy Perry, Rihanna), 2020
