Water3 is based on a series of vintage Austrian hardware from the 60s, hand-built around germanium transistor topology and plenty of audio transformers improved with our Hyper 2 technology.
Awe-Inspiring Dynamic Control
Water’s limiter/compressor is based on a discrete diode bridge design that delivers an awe-inspiring sound. With 3 of the best transformers in the audio realm, it offers a smooth, larger-than-life coloration that is reminiscent of classic legendary tube devices. Originally manufactured in the late 1960s, this hardware is a pretty rare find these days.
Purify Your Sound
Water EQ was sampled from a passive stereo germanium equalizer dating back to 1961, plus a set of “homebrewed” hardware circuits that were hand-built using original components. We took care to maintain the unique benefits of the original hardware while making the plugin more flexible, thereby a more useful tool for the demands of modern producers.
What’s new in Water 3?
We have elevated the Water suite to new heights with the release of its 3rd version, incorporating new features that enhance its accuracy and integrating it with our cutting-edge Hyper technology.
New features:
Improved audio quality thanks to the oversampling.
New “Hyper” engine.
New controls (Attack, Hold Attack, Hold Release, Power, Morph, Ext Sidechain). in the compressor.
Numerical value parameters.
Various optimizations and graphical improvements.
Resizable interface.
