FINALLY! Been asking for something like this since 2013! Cept for me SSL 9000k/j gets the low end! Learned on a 9000j and even just running a mix through the console made it sound 1000x better! It's that magical! SSL for lows, API for mids, Neve for highs. That's my boom sauce! Wish Acustica Audio's customer service was better though!

MY GOD it sounds amazing. Gonna have to buy this. Sad that Pink isn't getting updated though. Btw, from 7:20 onwards when you were checking the top and bottom end differences, you were adjusting the frequency of the HP and LP, which isn't connected to the HS and LS gain knobs. So your frequency adjustments weren't having an affect. The knob that you think is the Q control for the HP is the frequency knob for the high shelf

CHANNEV (Neve Channel Strip with many features) 2. GRAPHACK (same as API 560 but with saturation in each band) 3. COMPER (with 3 different compressions - FET, VCA and OPTO) 4.

Acustica has been focusing on lightness because of the complaints about CPU, so this product is geared towards that. This lets you dial in some quick EQ without having to load in a heavier plug. That said Sand, Pink, and Gold are the cornerstone of any AA collection, so I agree Salt definitely doesn't replace those.
