ACM-2A Plug-In for Linux
So, a little while ago (as a user, rather than a developer), I found myself trying out a plug-in, with a great looking 3D modelled photo-realistic UI - but I couldn’t help feeling that sometimes you can have too much of a good thing. And it got me thinking that perhaps it was time to experiment a little and see if I could cook up something that kept the essence of the original hardware (so the visual cues are there for those familiar with them) but with a more stylized, and modern UI.
At the same time I’ve watched Linux gaining in popularity for audio significantly over the last year - with more plug-ins and DAWs being ported all the time it seems (which is great to see, especially as someone who has been involved at some level for the past decade - initially with the linuxDSP plug-ins). The result is the ACM-2A plug-in for Linux - its available through the Applied Computer Music Technologies Ltd website. The perfect antidote for anyone who's overindulged on super-realistic 3D modelled flaky paint and rusty vintage metalwork… |

You should make the skin so that it fades and cracks over time, like every 30 days it gets a little more dingy and dinged up looking. Just like real hardware units!

The ACM500 channel EQ for Linux builds on the original EQ500, adding a highpass filter, modified control ranges, a mid-range Q control, phase / polarity switch and output level trim. |
