Tulip is the third in our new “Boutique Collection” of Acqua plugins (VST/VST3/AAX/AU) that pays tribute to a prestigious Dutch electronics company. Starting in the 1950s, they began producing quality professional audio equipment with truly outstanding features. This equipment was mainly used on recordings for their label, which over the years was home to an array of landmark artists such as David Bowie, The Bee Gees, Shirley Bassey, Nina Simone, Demis Roussos, Dusty Springfield, Roy Hamilton and many others.

This plugin is the first in the Acqua suite in which our new Hyper preamplification technology has been put to use. It significantly improves the standard of current preamplifier emulations, offering the highest possible audio quality, precision adjustments, and low CPU consumption, taking full advantage of the extraordinary potential of our VVK technology.

Details
Tulip brings together emulations derived from the extremely rare hardware units built by a well-known Dutch multinational company that both created and acquired a number of record labels over the years. They had the habit of renaming the sound consoles they designed and built according to while label was using it, so it’s not surprising to find versions of the exact same console that have been branded differently.

We’ve taken the best features from these sought-after classic consoles and put them all into Tulip. Any sound engineer will be fascinated by the unique features of this one-of-a-kind plugin suite.
