AudioThing has announced an update to its vintage enhancer effect plugin inspired by the famous Dolby A Trick technique.
Version 1.3.2 of Type A adds graphics controls (Brightness and Contrast) and macOS 14 Sonoma support. It also adds oversampling to Soft Clip, and the CPU and memory usage has been improved.
Type A emulates the encode stage, which was often misused as an enhancer, dynamically increasing the top end of a signal without introducing artifacts or altering the harmonic content. The results are similar to a dynamic EQ which adds presence and air to any track in a natural way.
Type A for Windows, Mac and Linux (VST/VST3, AU, AAX and CLAP) is on sale for $38.35 USD (regular $59 USD), and the effect is now also available for iOS at the App Store, priced $9.99 USD until August 31st, 2024 (regular $14.99 USD).
