  • Heritage Audio HA240 Gold Foil Verb The Heritage Audio HA240 Gold Foil Verb is a native effect plugin that meticulously models a rare and storied vintage gold foil plate reverb unit from Heritage Audio's private collection. Thought to be non-functioning for years, this particular unit, serial number #0183, was discovered to be not only operational but possessing a unique and enhanced sonic character developed over years of storage. This plugin captures the distinct, dark, yet enticing spatial qualities of this one-of-a-kind studio classic, aiming to inject a fun and musically inspiring vibe into your mixes. Designed to impart a unique sense of space, the HA240 Gold Foil Verb is particularly well-suited for adding depth and atmosphere to vocals, guitars, strings, and synthesizers. Its characteristic tone provides a darker and perhaps slightly more diffused or "cloudy" reverb compared to brighter plate reverbs, offering an enticing alternative for shaping the spatial dimension of your tracks. By emulating the specific nuances of this aged and unique hardware unit, Heritage Audio brings a piece of analog history and its sonic individuality into the digital audio workstation environment. The development of the HA240 Gold Foil Verb plugin stemmed directly from the rediscovery and appreciation of this vintage hardware unit within the Heritage Audio facility. Rather than letting the unit be cannibalized for parts, its unexpected and sonically pleasing performance inspired the creation of a plugin that faithfully replicates its gorgeous sound and vibe. This allows modern producers and engineers to access the distinct character of this rare gold foil reverb without the need for the original, fragile, and hard-to-find hardware. The plugin is designed for native operation within your digital audio workstation, utilizing iLOK Native for authorization and offering both perpetual and demo licensing options. It is also notably included as part of the plugin suite that accompanies Heritage Audio's i73 Pro series audio interfaces, providing added value to users of their hardware. Features: Authentic emulation of a rare vintage gold foil plate reverb unit (Serial #0183) from Heritage Audio's private collection. Captures the distinct, dark, and enticing spatial characteristics of the original hardware. Ideal for adding a unique reverb character to vocals, guitars, strings, and synthesizers. Based on a specific hardware unit whose sound was uniquely enhanced by years of storage. Designed to provide a fun and musically inspiring reverb effect. Available as a standalone native plugin. Included as part of the plugin bundle with Heritage Audio i73 Pro series audio interfaces. Uses iLOK Native for authorization. Offers perpetual and 14-day demo license options. Compatible with major DAW formats (VST3, AU, AAX). Read More

  • Soundtrack Loops Jazzy Trip HopSoundtrack Loops presents Jazzy Trip Hop. Belibat strikes again with Jazzy Trip Hop, a three-kit set of loops and samples with the built-in Belibat magic—the natural ability to take the best sounds of an era and reinvent them to roll with the times. Here, Belibat turns his tight studio focus and unwavering attention to detail loose on the archetypal mid-90s trip hop sound. Minimal jazz voicings that lean toward the exotic, hints of dub, tableisms, echoing textures—they're all here. The cool thing is that all the bases are covered. You'll find tight, deeply saturated mid-tempo grooves, thick basses, all the right synth textures—everything you need to make complete tracks, and the way these loops are produced, you can stack just a few and get full-flavored analog goodness effortlessly. While the classic trip hop period authenticity is obvious and spot-on, shades of the modern shine through (the lightest of shades, actually), bringing to mind the distant happy haze of vaporwave and it's quasi-nostalgic, slowed-down pace that today is seeping into contemporary pop music all over the place. Belibat demonstrates here in 105 loops and 28 one shots that these worlds work ideally together. Jazzy Trip Hop is an update on the art form, and this is perfect because trip hop is a timeless genre with roots that continue to flourish in both experimental and commercial music. As standard practice for all loops created by the Soundtrack Loops team, Key and BPM are tagged in both metadata and file names. Formats: ACIDized .WAV, Ableton Live .alp, and Apple Looped .AIFF. 48kHz 24-bit stereo files. Trippin'strumentals is available for purchase directly from the Soundtrack Loops website and from the KVR Marketplace for $20. ***Orders from the KVR Marketplace will be sent manually. Please allow up to 12 hours for delivery although they're typically sent within the hour. Read More
