ToneLib has announced an update to its tube emulation effect for Windows, Mac and Linux. Version 2.0.1 of TL TubeWarmth brings a complete redesign of the original rack and an improved GUI.

The update also fixes some minor graphics bugs occurring on certain systems, improves optimization of CPU usage, and increases the overall stability of the plugin.

Along with the new rack design, we’ve added an additional gain module to TubeWarmth. With the new Extra Heat knob, you can add even more gain while keeping the warmth and transparency of the tube tone. We’ve made Extra Heat a separate parameter so it won’t directly affect any existing presets.

In the updated TubeWarmth interface, we’ve reworked the Input/Output visual display, plus added the option to collapse the rack window for a better tracking of signal dynamics. In addition, we’ve added the option to switch between the A/B states of the plugin. This allows you to easily compare several TubeWarmth configurations and choose the most suitable one for your application.

TL TubeWarmth is free to download in VST/VST3 an AU plugin formats and as standalone software.
