You can get HoRNet Analog Stage console channel emulation plugin as a free download until March 7th, reports Producer Feed.

Meet HoRNet Analog Stage. This retro-looking plugin re-creates the beloved sounds of the analog gear such as saturation, hiss, nonlinear frequency response, and more. If your mixdown is looking for a touch of up of analog console sound, look no further.

With AnalogStage, you’ll be able to simulate the response of three different types of analog technology. These include operational amplifiers (which are the cleanest, more modern of the three technologies), transistors (back in the 70s, the discrete transistor designs were pretty popular and do have some pretty meaty saturation) and tubes (renowned dynamic and smooth saturation of the past).

You can simulate the sound of three different analog "models" with HoRNet AnalogStage. These include operational amplifiers, transistors, and tubes. You can access the three different models via the Model dropdown menu.

Every one of the three different type of emulation can be used inside the same project but for convenience, you can create up to eight group of instances so that any change to the emulation type, age, hiss switch and saturation switch is applied to every plugin belonging to the group.

You’ll be able to access the different models to achieve a different sound by scanning the simple drop-down menus on the under interface.

AnalogStage also features a stereo VU meter. Calibrated to -18dBFS, the VU meter will help you gain stage your plugin instances – not to mention HoRNet’s auto gain technology which they have implemented.

An “age” also features on the interface too. This slider, if you hadn’t guessed, will make your virtual console sound older! By “simulating the effect of drying condensers”, you’ll affect the sound of the saturation amount and the frequency response too.

By using HoRNet Analog Stage on your channels or bus groups, you’ll bring the analog console flavour to your music.
