Herbert got active again, currently, gathering information about trends in the modern plugin world…but I’m afraid he’ll be having a hard time finding back to his glory because Tunca from Analog Obsession seems to have taken over. Antress was like hit or miss but that mysterious guy behind “Antress” made some seriously good plugins. I’ve been doing audio engineering for quite some time now and I remember two big names from the 32bit era that were associated with free quality plugins: Herbert Goldberg aka Bootsy aka Variety of Sound and Antress. And to be recognized by SoS is kind of an honour. Since he went to Patreon his plugins became serious challengers for payware.Įven “SoundonSound” included his Pultec in their comprehensive test. I was a very early customer of Tunca from AO and yes, there had been issues. The cooperation was a smart decision, more and more people “discover” AO as a true alternative to paid plugins. He has improved a LOT! The current plugins are incredibly good. I don’t know when you gave AO a try the last time.

We also featured Analog Obsession’s previously released BUSTERse and LALA plugins. If you’re not sure which plugins to download first, you can start with Rare and the recently released BritBundle collection. Because of their continuous work on developing freeware plugins, BPB selected Analog Obsession as the most improved developer in 2020. Also, most of their plugins now come with an oversampling feature.
