Tap into multiple modulation sources, manipulate LFO shape and stereo spread and plunge harmonic sweeps to uncharted depths.
1973-Pre
The 1973-Pre is a faithful recreation of a legendary 1073-style preamp. This now-renowned preamp revolutionised the recording world in the 1970s. Using TAE technology, Arturia has recreated this classic preamp, with extreme attention to detail. The virtual model provides the same distinct colouration and analog distortion, as well as the original, sweet-sounding tone controls. The preamp is comprised of a 3-band equalizer, high-pass filter, input gain and output trim controls, complete with vintage-style rotary controls and classic VU meters, for that classic vintage style. .
TridA-Pre
The TridA-Pre bases its design on the rare and legendary Trident A Range console. The Trident A Range console was one of the most renowned music consoles on the planet, helping to provide the sound for such acts as The Beatles, David Bowie, Elton John, Queen, T-Rex, Genesis and more. It was widely revered for its beautiful-sounding musical EQ, providing a full-bodied sound with rich tonality. Only 13 of the consoles were ever made, making them one of the most sought-after mixing consoles ever.
V75-Pre
The V76-Pre bases its design on the coveted V76 preamp, used in the famous Abbey Road studios and incorporated within the REDD mixing consoles. The V76 helped to shape the sound of"The White Album" by The Beatles, thanks to its tube-based warmth and rich tonality. Building on the original design, Arturia has refined the functionality and hand-picked the best elements for added versatility.
VCA-65
The VCA-65 is based on the legendary DBX165A, a compressor unlike any other. Unlike its competition, the 165a used a solid-state VCA to create its compression effect. These days the DBX165A is highly sought after but thanks to Arturia's TAE modelling you're free to use an unlimited amount of VCA-65s when mixing. When pushed to the extreme you'll hear the VCA65's characteristic grit.
FET-76
The FET-76 makes everything better. Arturia has authentically modelled the most iconic studio compressor in the world. The combination of the field-effect transistor and Class-A amplifier imparts a subtle yet desirable tone, even at low compression levels. Crank the input and select one of four ratios, or, even engage the "all buttons" mode to really hear the FET-based compressor come alive on any source. Drums, bass, vocals, guitars.
STA
The Arturia Tube STA faithfully recreates the all-American workhorse. The STA was commonplace in broadcast and recording studios during the golden age of production. The original STA was renowned for its intimacy, silky highs and saturation when pushed. The STA was a mainstay on vocals and bass. This was for its ability to transform weak bottom-end energy into warm, harmonically rich tones.
Rev Plate 140
The EMT140 is the ultimate plate reverb. No collection of effects is complete without the inclusion of a luxurious, smooth plate, full of richness. You'll be able to inject tonnes of vintage mojo into your mixes thanks to the inclusion of analog tube preamp with gain compensation. This accentuates the naturally sweet tone of the reverb. The Rev plate comes with three wholly accurate plates; Punchy, EMT and Wonderful.
Rev Intensity
Not a copy, not an emulation, not a tribute. Rev Intensity will change the way you think about this type of audio effect. Having analyzed and recreated the best studio gear ever made for the FX Collection, Arturia took notes when analysing the classics, combining the best of all things digital into one awesome reverb plugin. Arturia's developers used cutting-edge algorithmic techniques to create a lush, versatile reverb that sounds fantastic and is easy on your CPU.
SPRING-636
Originally invented to add some “space” to the sound of Hammond Organs way back in the 30s, the reverb is a relatively simple design of a suspended spring inside a tank. True Analog Emulation handles the electronic side, analyzing and accurately modelling the way the circuitry works, and how it responds to various audio signals. Phi lets us study the physical nature of the reverb, how the spring reacts, and how the tank’s resonance changes the sound.
Delay TAPE-201
Modelled after an iconic hardware echo machine from the '70s, Delay TAPE-201 employs a closed loop of tape using sequential playheads to create expansive and rhythmic echo effects. Central to the creation of genres such as dub, Delay TAPE-201 can be played much like an instrument rather than simply being used for creative effect. Ideal for contemporary producers, Delay TAPE-201 features a wide range of modern features for producers of today.
Memory Brigade
Memory Brigade is Arturia's love letter to the legendary BBD that created a revolution in time-based modulation effects.One of the first, and certainly the greatest BBD delays was the Memory Man, and the slightly redesigned Deluxe Memory Man created by effects pioneers Electro-Harmonix in the mid-70s.
Delay Eternity
The Arturia Delay Eternity started on the same drawing board as their award-winning, next-gen software synth Pigments. Not only did they want to create a delay with unreal modulation power, but they also wanted to integrate contemporary features that would let both experimental and traditional producers experience delay like never before.
Mini-Filter
The Mini-Filter bases its design and sound around a renowned Moog-style 24dB low-pass ladder filter. Building on the original design, Arturia has tweaked and updated the filter for the modern music maker. You can use the filter to smooth out audio files or add subtle overtones to a low-level recording. The modulation section is comprised of an envelope follower, step sequencer and an LFO for optimal versatility and sound-shaping capabilities.
M12-Filter
The M12-Filter is a faithful recreation of the famous multi-mode filter, from Oberheim's Matrix-12. The sound and parameters have been refined and updated, making it one of the most powerful sound-shaping tools available. The analog filter tone control comes complete with programmable modulation envelopes and a versatile modulation matrix for optimal flexibility.
SEM-Filter
The SEM-Filter is a faithful recreation of the legendary Oberheim filter the SEM. This versatile filtering plugin is based on the pioneering design of Tom Oberheim. Arturia has gone to great lengths to ensure they capture the essence of the analog sound and tone, as well as improving and refining the filter for modern-day use.
How much is my shipping?
Shipping is automatically calculated before you submit your payment information. Simply add items to your cart and proceed to the checkout page, where you'll be offered shipping options and their prices. In the UK it's normally around £4 for order values under £150, and free above that. Shipping to mainland EU is typically between £7 and £20, depending on the shipping method and the size and weight of the order.
Do you ship to my country?
Almost certainly - the site will give you an estimate of shipping costs if you add an item to the cart and then enter your country and postcode. If you have specific requirements (such as if you prefer UPS over FedEx, for example) then let us know in advance and we'll try to work something out for you.
Shipping methods
We use a combination of Parcelforce, DPD, Royal Mail and UPS for the UK, and for international orders it's either Royal Mail, UPS, DHL or FedEx depending on where you are in the world. If you have a particular preference then try to let us know BEFORE you order so we can look into it for you. Please note that there may occasionally be additional shipping charges if you live in a remote area, depending on what surcharges are applied by the shipper. We'll get in touch to discuss this with you in such cases.
Dispatch times
For UK orders, we normally dispatch the same working day if we get the order before 15:00. If you have a really urgent situation then of course drop us an email before ordering and we'll always do our absolute best to accommodate you.
For international orders, we normally dispatch the same day if we get the order before 13:00 but again, occasionally it might be the next day before we can send it out, and sometimes FedEx or UPS may come a little earlier than scheduled which would also push an order into the next day.
Shipping times
Since April 2020 the couriers we use have suspended guarantees for shipping times, so even though we're paying them for priority services - 24-48 hours for most of the world - in practice it's often an extra day on top and sometimes it can be longer.
There is absolutely nothing we can do about this unfortunately. If you are outside the UK and it's a life-or-death situation where you absolutely MUST have that passive mult for the next day then... it may be better to find a local supplier.
Saturday shipping
If you're in the UK and you order before 15:30 on a Friday then we can send something for a Saturday delivery (NB: this applies to UK mainland addresses only). The success rate with DPD is about 95% so it's worth a punt most of the time. Please note that if you select Saturday shipping on an order placed earlier in the week, we'll wait until Friday to ship it.
Pre-orders
If a product is listed as a pre-order, it means we've ordered it from the supplier but it's not physically in stock yet. The product listing will include an estimated shipping date based on the best information we have from the supplier, but do bear in mind this is subject to change and is not a guaranteed date.
If you place an order containing a mixture of in-stock and pre-order items, we'll normally hold off on shipping anything until the pre-order item(s) have arrived, rather than splitting it into multiple shipments. If you need the in-stock items sooner, we'd recommend placing separate orders. As always, please get in touch if you have questions.
