Midnight是Acqua插件的最新成员，提供VST、AU和AAX格式，是被普遍认为是迄今为止最具标志性的动态处理器的终极Vari-mu管压缩器系列，以Acustica的方式重新诠释。

介绍Midnight：永恒的经典压缩器，复古氛围，现代掌握。 Vari-mu在1950年代被描述为“普遍接受的水平控制标准”，至今仍然是有史以来最受推崇的录音室处理器之一，既可以用于母带工作室，也可以用于广播设施。由于其赋予音乐温暖和轻柔压缩的独特能力而广受赞誉，这些管式压缩器在音响世界上留下了不可磨灭的印记。

Midnight包括来自不同制造商的四个不同的采样单元，借助Hyper 3技术提供卓越的音质。它呈现了“终极”Vari-mu管压缩器，类似于著名的Acqua插件套装Ultramarine，但由Acustica重新设计，添加了许多创新功能，这些功能以前从未为市场上的这些特定的660-670压缩器的硬件版本或软件模拟引入。

Midnight的背后有什么理念？ 这个产品的诞生是为了重新创建一个更加适应性强、直观的经典和永恒图标版本。Midnight不想只是充当简单的克隆，因为Acustica已经在现在著名的Ultramarine插件套装中做过了。这个产品背后的理念是为我们忠实的用户提供一款压缩器的最佳版本，这款压缩器已经创造了历史，通过重新设计、增强它，并推动传统仿真的界限。目标在于提供一系列在原始设备中找不到的功能，确保最大的灵活性，使用户能够以更大的精度雕刻他们的声音，而不会牺牲采样设备的声音，以充分发挥其不同的面貌。

这些令人印象深刻的硬件设备的声音的特点在于其具有短攻击时间和长释放时间的独特特征，通过对单独的Time Constant控制进行调整。这允许对瞬态进行控制，并对轨道的“声音按摩”进行微妙的增强。这种声音特性已经得到保留和增强。Midnight的一个独特特点在于瞬态响应和整体压缩行为的管理，相比其硬件对应物，更加精确和详细。这主要通过能够独立调整攻击和释放时间常数来实现，通过使用Hold控件进一步细化它们。从微妙而透明的压缩到大胆的饱和和丰富的特色，Midnight作为一款双单声道压缩器提供了真正广泛的声音可能性，而不牺牲易用性。

其直观的界面（3D和Flat）确保易于使用，使经验丰富的专业人士和新手都能轻松利用管式压缩的强大功能。

多年来，人们已经尝试创建多个硬件克隆，试图捕捉这款庞大压缩器/限制器不可忽视的特色。我们捕捉了我们认为是这款传奇压缩器最好的四个不同硬件灵感的声音。如果将它们组合在一起，它们的总价格将超过35,000美元。我们以Acustica标准重新设计的软件版本提供它们。

不要让它的体积愚弄你！亲自试一试——我们确信您会同意，结果简直令人惊叹。

Embark on a journey into the realm of timeless audio processing with Midnight, the newest Acqua plugin, available in VST, AU, and AAX formats that stands as the Ultimate Vari-mu Tube compressor collection universally considered the most iconic dynamics processor to date, reinterpreted in the Acustica way.

Introducing Midnight: Timeless Classic Compressors, Vintage Vibes, Modern Mastery.
Described as the ‘universally accepted standard for level control’ in the 1950s, Vari-mu’s remain one of the most revered studio processors ever invented, equally multipurpose in mastering studios and radio broadcast facilities. Widely acknowledged for their unique ability to impart a musical warmth and gentle compression, these tube compressors have left an indelible mark on the world of sound.

Midnight includes four different sampled units from different manufacturers, delivering unparalleled sound quality thanks to Hyper 3 technology. It brings to life the ‘Ultimate’ vari-mu tube compressor, reminiscent of the renowned Acqua plugin suite Ultramarine, but redesigned by Acustica, adding many innovative features, never before introduced for these specific iconic 660-670 compressors whether hardware versions or software emulations on the Market.

What’s the idea behind Midnight?
This product was born out of the need to recreate an even more adaptable and intuitive version of a classic and timeless icon. Midnight does not want to pose as a simple clone, which Acustica has already given with the now famous Ultramarine plugin suite. The idea behind this product is to offer our loyal customers the best of a compressor that has made history, redesigning it, enhancing it, and pushing the boundaries of traditional emulation. The goal lies in offering a range of features not found in the original gear ensuring maximum versatility, allowing users to sculpt their sound with greater precision, without sacrificing the sound of the equipment sampled, so as to harness all its different facets.

The sound of these impressive hardware devices is characterized by the unique feature of having short attack times and long release times, acting on the individual Time Constant control. This allows for the control of transients and a subtle “sonic massage” to enhance the body of the track. This sonic characteristic has been preserved and enhanced. One of Midnight’s distinctive features lies in the management of transient response and the overall compression behavior, which is more precise and detailed compared to its hardware counterparts. This is primarily achieved through the ability to independently adjust the attack and release time constants, further refining them with the use of Hold controls. From subtle and transparent compression to bold saturation and rich character, Midnight serves as a dual-mono compressor offering a truly broad spectrum of sonic possibilities without sacrificing ease of use.

Its intuitive interfaces (3D & Flat) ensure ease of use, enabling both seasoned professionals and novices to harness the power of tube compression effortlessly.

Over the years, multiple hardware clones have been created in an attempt to harness the unmistakable character of this behemoth compressor/limiter. We have captured the sound of what we believe to be the best four different hardware inspirations of this legendary compressor. When combined, their total list price would exceed $35,000. We offer them in a software version redesigned to Acustica standards.

Don’t let its size fool you! Try it out for yourself — we’re sure you’ll agree that the results are simply stunning.
