Berglind Audio has released a saturation plugin built for music production, mixing, and mastering. Oolong is designed to offer exceptional flexibility, great sound quality and a deeply musical character.
Free from the usual constraints of traditional analog modeling, Oolong draws inspiration from tube preamps and tape machines–but it’s tuned by ear, not by textbook. The result: a sound that’s not bound by emulation, but built to feel right.
With just a few simple controls, Oolong moves from subtle enhancement to bold distortion—from the sweet harmonics of a tube amp to the smooth dynamic shaping of vintage tape—and everything in between.
Oolong features
- Highly flexible saturation with unique character from a complex adaptive algorithm.
- Excellent sound quality with very low aliasing.
- Clear, ergonomic, resizable GUI with intuitive controls.
- Carefully designed auto gain to help you make the best decisions.
- Low latency: 32 samples in 44.1k, 16 samples in 48k and no latency above that.
- Custom low and high EQ filters with high quality, decramped audio processing.
- Well behaved parameter automation (no clicks, crackling or pops).
- Very low CPU-usage.
Priced $30 USD, Oolong is currently available for macOS in VST3 and AU plugin formats. The free Olong Jr comes with core functions of the full version. Support for Windows VST3 is coming soon.
