Rust Romance has introduced a new preamp effect plugin for Windows and Mac (VST3/AU). Built around the concept of an API-style preamp, BigBlockPre can be used for everything from adding the slightest hint of texture to aggressive saturation and even heavy distortion.
The free BigBlockPre LE features a fixed signal path built around a 2622-style input transformer, 2520-style discrete op-amp, and 2503-style output transformer.
Adding selectable input transformers, 5 discrete op-amp styles, and multiple output transformer models, BigBlockPre Pro allows users to build their own preamp combinations rather than simply choosing between finished emulations.
Build a punchier chain for drums, a denser path for bass, something smoother for vocals, or a more coloured combination for synths and samplers.
Instead of loading several different preamp plug-ins for different sources, BigBlockPre Pro lets you create those variations inside one slot.
Regularly priced €14 EUR, BigBlockPre Pro is on sale for the launch price of €8 EUR for a limited time.
