Kush Audio SILIKA v1.0.1 REPACK WiN
VST Effects / VST Plugins / Audio Soft
4-01-2021
After 9 years in the plugin game, Kush can finally say without exaggeration that, at least for one particular flavor of vintage compressors that clip beautifully, we have completely closed the Analog/Digital gap. SILIKA is not 'close', it's not 'different but just as good'. It's 'Sonically Identical' to the types of hardware it's modeled after.
When you drive this plugin's input, everything melts deliciously. In particular, the high frequencies lay back and spread out without getting edgy, or bright, or even the least bit 'zingy'. It may get too grindy, but it won't hurt your ears. Think Led Zeppelin IV's hazy grunge, and you'll start to get the idea.
SILIKA owes its killer sound to an extraordinarily complex harmonic distortion generator, but operationally it's a relatively simple compressor with a familiar feature set. All of its distortions are controlled with the Input knob, which can be switched and blended to taste. The resulting signal then gets passed to a compressor/limiter with 4 available ratios, standard Attack/Release/Threshold/Mix controls, and sidechain filtering options which, while simple, allow for a dramatic reshaping of the compressor's behavior.
It's a straightforward plugin with an absolutely killer sound, and represents the dawn of a new era for Kush plugins and digital sonics in general.

THE SOUND OF REDDI
The original hardware REDDI is a legend among professional session players and commercial studio owners. Its hybrid tube/solid state gain circuits, beefy transformer, and oversized power supply have an uncanny ability to both reign in bass transients and punch them up.

A lovely saturation and distortion generator pulled straight from the heart of Kush's own Tweaker hardware compressor.
Model TWK is a vintage distortion pulled straight from the heart of Kush's own Tweaker hardware compressor. The sound of Omega TWK comes from modeling the way Tweaker overdrives a pair of "supermatched transistors” feeding a long chain of dirty 70's op-amps, all of which have specs that, by modern standards, would be considered abysmal.

DSP compressor with groundbreaking attack & release qualities, separate i/o Saturation, and two optional tone circuits.
Novatron is an analog-modeled compressor that borrows so many sonic properties from so many different classing hardware units that, ironically, it could only exist in the world of DSP.
With separate in/out Transformer Saturation, two optional Tone Circuits, and a monstrous compressor with groundbreaking attack and release characteristics, the Novatron produces the same three-dimensional 'solidity' and tone typically reserved for expensive hardware.
Kush Audio AR-1 v1.0.4 WiN

AR-1 is a variable-mu tube compressor whose roots are in the raucous sound of the rockin’ American 50’s, yet it enjoys a posh, tea-sipping British image thanks to its use at Abbey Road Studios in late 60’s, notably on the later Beatles and earlier Pink Floyd records. Kush painstakingly captured the sweet breakup of AR-1’s beefy tubes being driven into the dirt, then added more than a half dozen significant UI and functional enhancements. The resulting emulation is every bit as chunky as the original, and 10x more flexible
