Variety of Sound has announced the release of a major update to its NastyVCS channel strip effect plugin for Windows.
NastyVCS mkII comes with VST3 support, extensively modernized DSP processing and the latest in audio signal coloration.
The performance of all EQs and filters has been improved in terms of resolution, quantisation noise and Nyquist behaviour. NastyVCS now features authentic audio transformer circuitry in both the input and output stages and the signal saturation effects can now be adjusted not only continuously, but also fully volume-compensated.
Also, the compressor has been optimised to reduce unwanted distortion. The update also includes bug fixes and a revised manual is now available online.
