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.

Add the legendary tube sweetness of A-Designs' Bass D.I. Box to any sound in your mix. From A-Designs Digital by Kush.

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.

e B-Comp is a stereo compressor. it was originally designed after testing diode bridge compressors.

The Vintage/Modern options vary the attack and release characteristics of the processor and will vary the ‘colour’ of the output. Switch between them to hear the difference and select what works for you. This switch has more to do with ‘colour’ or ‘feel’ of the sound.

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

Smoothness and transparency. BeComp is a dynamics processor that will change the way you use and think about compressors and compression.

The inherently rich and colorful tone of the BeComp helps glue tracks together. The BeComp is the thickest and heavy sounding compressor/limiters. it's also quite handy for pumping up individual tracks.
