Osaka 2 Mix EQ

70.00

Osaka 2 Mix EQ is a custom-built, solid-state parametric equaliser plugin designed for no compromise on quality. It features LOW SHELF, LOW-MID and HIGH-MID PARAMETRIC, and HI SHELF parameter controls, somewhat Oxford-esque in inspiration, though specially developed to bring a wide palette of colour to your mixes. We’ve created a special DRIFT+ feature that harnesses the reactions of real circuitry to the effects of component temperature over time, adding an extra dimension of control to your mixes.

Description

Osaka 2 Mix EQ features a second preamp stage called DRIFT+, an addtional preamp stage with custom circuitry, sampled and developed entirely by LONDON ACOUSTICS to emphasize the “analogue feel” of this equipment.

Osaka Mix EQ is an official third-party plugin for N4 Player

DRIFT+

For Osaka 2 Mix EQ we created a special parameter called DRIFT+. “Analogue Drift” is in regard to the effect of the component’s temperature altering its sonic character, over time. DRIFT+ lets you control this effect, allowing subtle variations to each mix. All of these subtle variations are usually due to naturally occurring reactions in circuitry that have not been compensated for in the design. This phenomenon is also known as the (with a slightly less glamorous name) “Flaw/Feature effect”.

In the physical hardware domain, the DRIFT+ effect could be said to give the impression of more air, openness and a subtle enhancement of dynamics, to make your recording sound more “alive”. The DRIFT+ feature is an integral part of that sonic character that gives vintage signal processors that analogue sound.

With DRIFT+, we have harnessed this effect and brought it in line with current audio standards: recreating this effect in an amplified way, improving the fidelity, widening the frequency spectrum and response. The DRIFT+ option is well suited to nearly every kind of track, mixing group, and sometimes even worth try on the master buss!

Exploring OSAKA MIX EQ

We take you through the parameters of Osaka Mix EQ on a funky 3-Track mix including drums, bass and e-piano. Hear the difference it makes to the whole mix, as well as each instrument individually. We also check out how Osaka’s pre can add dynamics to the instrument, bypassing the EQ effect and just using the preamp, both with or without the Drift+ setting engaged.

How to Install and use

ACQUA LIBRARIES FOR N4
An Acqua library is similar to a Nebula library but it is built by merging several emulation presets into a single one, resulting in a more complex simulation with a custom user interface.
It’s exactly like a standalone Acqua plugin but it needs N4/N4 Player framework to run properly.
In this way you will have always the latest updated Acqua engine for all of your Third Party Plugins.

  1. Signup to create your personal accoount in the Acustica Audio website


  2. BUY there or activate the trial of your preferred LONDON ACOUSTICS product


  3. Download and install Acustica Audio AQUARIUS assistant application , after that insert the details of your personal account

  4. Trough AQUARIUS, in the left tab “Purchased”, locate the N4 Player multi-effect plug-in, then click “install”
    TIP: Please, mind that you can install in your system just ONE of N4 OR N4 Player. The two softwares cannot coexist together. 


  5. Always through AQUARIUS, in the same way, locate and install your LONDON ACOUSTICS plugin (in default it will be installed in the Nebula4temprepository folder)
    TIP: Any N4 ACQUA plugin needs N4 or N4 Player framework to run properly, they are not intended to be standalone plugins.


  6. From your sequencer you can now start to load N4 Player as the other common FX plugins, in every insert or send slot (VST, VST3, AU, AAX)


  7. In N4 Player you can find then your LONDON ACOUSTICS N4 ACQUA plugin to load.


  8. Enjoy!
