Acustica Audio has launched Daisy, compatible with both Windows and macOS. This innovative plugin is designed to emulate a variety of analog to digital and digital to analog conversions, offering a wide range of sonic characteristics.
Daisy is available in VST3, AU, and AAX formats. It meticulously captures every nuance of each device it emulates, covering solid-state, hybrid, and tube technologies. The result is a range of sonic characteristics from the most transparent to the richly colored.
The plugin offers 18 different emulations from 14 high-value hardware units. This results in 6 AD (Analog to Digital) and 12 DA (Digital to Analog) conversions. The units emulated by Daisy have been carefully selected for their superior sound quality, durability, and iconic status in world-class studios.
Key features of Daisy include emulated ADC and DAC models, a drift button to simulate random variations in signal timing, and ADC drive to add analog-like warmth and depth. Additionally, it offers DAC De-Correlate to enhance the stereo image, advanced metering and real-time waveform visualization, a dither menu with 8 modes, a bit depth menu, a ceiling menu with 5 modes, and factory presets.
Daisy provides users with the flexibility to independently enable or disable ADC and DAC emulations. This allows users to use only the ADC for coloration and harmonic enhancement, use only the DAC to shape playback tone or enhance spatial depth, or combine both for a complete AD-DA signal chain.
Designed for mastering, mixing, and critical listening, Daisy excels in mastering environments where both subtlety and significant audio sculpting are required. Its comprehensive control set allows for detailed manipulation of the audio signal, ensuring that masters sound polished and consistent across various playback systems.
Daisy successfully bridges the gap between analog warmth and digital clarity. Its versatility makes it a valuable addition to any audio processing setup, delivering both subtle nuances and bold transformations, all while maintaining the highest fidelity and user control.
The introductory offer for Daisy is 40% off, valid until February 26th.
