Following the success of its predecessor, PULSE, Lancaster Audio is back with PULSE 2 – the perfect IR loader to complement our extensive library of impulse responses. Using PULSE 2 as your IR loader means you can spend less time sorting through piles of IRs and more time focusing on what’s important: the mix.
PULSE 2 was built in collaboration with Aurora DSP and designed for both aspiring engineers and seasoned pros to utilize impulse responses to their fullest potential. With its unique and incredibly intuitive blending control, PULSE 2 not only allows you to find that perfect ‘Goldie Locks’ sound with ease but the ability to export it as your very own impulse response .wav file!
Best of all, when you open PULSE 2, you’ll be greeted by four impulse responses, hand-selected from our Lancaster Audio Producer Packs—for FREE. Get your perfect guitar sound quicker than ever before.
YS _ RV-2 Audio reverb plugin. Simple, but quite flexible in settings device. Low and high frequency filters are separately adjusted for early and late reflections. Mid frequencies of 2 kHz are common for the entire reverb. For early reflections there is an additional delay with auto-panning in the mid-low frequency range. Late reflections can be used in mono and with an extended panorama, and there is also a separate panorama control. The size of early reflections is selected by a large control in the center. Pre-delay of the entire reverb 0-100 ms, for late reflections 0-1000 ms Saturation with harmonics also gives a pumping effect as with light compression, compacting the entire reverb.

u-he has introduced a new public beta of the TyrellN6 free software synthesizer for Windows, Mac and Linux.
Version 2025 revision 16947 comes with various improvements and bug fixes.
Since we are concentrating on Uhbik 2.0 and Zebra 3.0 this year, we couldn’t churn out a full-fledged update right now. Instead, we simply fixed some crucial bugs, added our modern browser and a makeshift preferences section. But don’t expect new features or a new GUI. There is no fancy MIDI learn section, no MPE support, and the CLAP version does not include per voice parameter modulation.
Viktor invested a lot of time to completely revamp the factory library. Windows and Linux users, it’s better to manually delete the old factory library before installing the update, so you don’t end up with a total mess.
Changes in TyrellN6 rev. 16947
Support for CLAP.
Support for latest macOS version (Sequoia).
Native Apple Silicon support.
Improved VST3 support.
Updated VST3 SDK to 3.7.8.
Improved GUI performance.
Improved dialog handling.
Implemented our modern preset browser.
Revamped preset library.
Soundset installation via drag&drop.
Makeshift preferences section added.
Added 50% & 60% GUI scaling options.
Support for MTS-ESP microtuning (Mac, Win, Linux).
Ctrl A/B replaces fixed Breath and Expression modulation.
VST2 > VST3 migration support for hosts using the IPluginCompatibility interface.

VK-1 Viking Synthesizer is an authentic emulation of a classic monophonic analog synthesizer. It has three continuously variable wave oscillators, two ladder filters with a Dual Lowpass or Highpass/Lowpass configuration, a multi-wave LFO, and two modulation busses. VK-1 uses state of the art DSP technology to accurately reproduce the sound of the hardware.
Presets
VK-1 comes with 228 presets in the categories Bass, Bright Lead, Electro Bass, FX, Percussive Lead, Soft Lead, and Synthwave. The 50 Electro Bass and 50 Synthwave presets were created by experienced sound designer eXode. The synth excels at thick bass and rich lead sounds.
Oscillators
At the heart of VK-1 are three adjustable wave oscillators. The continuously variable waveform knob gives the oscillators a unique sound that can’t be achieved with the fixed waveforms found in most synths. A noise oscillator provides three types of noise.
Modulation
Two modulation busses and an LFO provide flexible modulation capabilities.
Filter
The filter is a classic transistor ladder filter modeled meticulously. Different drive modes are available for adding grit. The number of poles is adjustable for a wider range of filter sounds.
VK-1 Render
VK-1 has cutting edge DSP technology:
– VK-1’s oscillators have been measured from hardware
– VK-1’s oscillators have drift and jitter
– VK-1’s oscillators use advanced techniques to avoid aliasing
– VK-1’s filters are nonlinear ZDF with carefully tuned self-oscillation
– VK-1’s envelopes have been matched to hardware
New for VST
The graphics of VK-1 have been completely redone with Retina support. Using experience gained over the past several years, the sound quality has been updated to sound more rich, smooth, and creamy.
Now Free
VK-1 is available as a free download.
Requirements
VK-1 VST is a 64 bit VST2 plug-in compatible with macOS and Windows.
The more you play with neurontube: debut, the more passionate you will be about playing guitar. You get the whole package: from the insane roar of american high gain, to the british clean bliss. Damn, you even get the edge-of-breakup tones that you know and love.
All this combined with boutique stomp pedals modeled using advanced artificial intelligence techniques, hand picked cabinets and mics captured with precision overkill, which definitely makes neurontube: debut unique in tone.
the pedalboard
neurontube: debut ships with these amazing pedals for maximum control over your tones. Here they are:
COMPRESSOR: as the name says, a compressor pedal, that makes controlling your signal volume easy.
BURN: distortion/fuzz pedal. It lets you go from a edge-of-breakup Centaur-like sound, to giving you the low end tightness of tubescreamers, to amp melting fuzz. It covers it all.
CHORUS: chorus pedal, for this one we went for a vintage chorus modulation. Sounds great at speedy rate 80’s tones, or slow rate fulfilling chords, beautiful stuff. Boosting the feedback/depth you can get to the psychedelic side of this pedal.
TIME MACHINE: our delay pedal, based on a hand picked analog delay pedal, was designed to filter off annoying treble frequencies, making it sound darker than most digital made delays. Control the time, feedback and mix.
THE ROOM: a studio room reverb pedal. Control the room size, the reflection brilliance and the mix. You can even control the position of the pedal on the chain of your signal: pre or post the amp (loop fx like).
the amp selection
Playing a classic amp is awesome. This is why we made our version of these amps that we think that every guitar player should have a chance to play. Here are the models (that we based on) in neurontube: debut:
Soldano® SLO-100®
And the forgotten british edge-of-breakup legend:
Laney® TF300®

amps included in neurontube
the cabinet section
Here lies the true tone shaper. Whatever the tone you are looking into, the most important choice that you have to make is the cabinet.
Knowing this, we went out looking for the most amazing cabinet tones that we could possibly find. Our selection speaks by itself.
1×12 HH Invader Laney TF300 Combo
4×12 Vintage 30 Marshall 1960 LEAD A
4×12 Vintage 30 Modern American Cab
All this mic’d with hand picked studio microphones.

user interface
neurontube: debut is shipped with a precision tuner, input/output level control, input/output level metering, noise gate control, preset editor, amp selector, a pedalboard section, amp section, cabinet section and mute button.
cutting edge amp simulation: artificial intelligence for tone perfection
system requirements
neurontube:debut comes in 64-bit VST3 / AU (macOS only) / Standalone app. Works on:
Windows 10
OSX 10.12 to up-to-date macOS versions
Linux debian distros (tested on Linux Mint and Ubuntu).
KiTiK has announced the release of a new spectral ‘Crusher’ plugin for Windows and Mac.
Krush sounds like nothing you’ve heard before (or at least I haven’t heard before).
I’m diving into the realm of spectral processing and here is my first go at it. This was more of training exercise for me than anything, but I thought the results sounded cool, so I thought I’d share.
Krush is free to download in VST3 and AU plugin formats.
