Black Rooster Audio Expands Its Catalog with the Versatile GA-GT2 Preamp Plugin

December 2022 – Gotha, Germany – Black Rooster Audio, a leading developer of professional-grade audio plugins, proudly announces the release of the GA-GT2 Preamp Plugin, an exciting new addition to its celebrated product lineup.

Available in AAX, VST, and AU formats, this plugin promises to be an indispensable tool for musicians, producers, and engineers alike.

The Legacy Behind GA-GT2

Inspired by a beloved guitar preamp introduced in 1989, the GA-GT2 has its roots in a unit that became a cult favorite among guitarists of all genres. From punk rock to metal, blues to country, the original hardware earned its reputation as one of the most versatile and durable preamps on the market. Musicians relied on its ability to produce a vast array of tones, from smooth, vintage warmth to aggressive, heavy distortion.

The GA-GT2 continues that legacy, delivering authentic tones that capture the essence of the original hardware. Black Rooster Audio has painstakingly emulated its circuitry, resulting in a plugin that accurately replicates the unique tonal characteristics musicians have cherished for decades. Whether you're looking for warm saturation on a bass track or an aggressive, overdriven guitar sound, the GA-GT2 has you covered.

Key Features of the GA-GT2

  • Cabinet Simulation Bypass: Easily integrate your own amp simulator or hardware by bypassing the onboard cabinet emulation, allowing for limitless creative possibilities.

  • Authentic Baxandall Tone Control: Precisely modeled treble and bass controls that mimic the shelving EQ of the original hardware, giving you fine control over your tone.

  • Phase Switch: Avoid phase cancellation issues when blending signals by inverting the phase with a simple switch.

  • Mix Knob: Blend the clean and distorted signals to achieve the perfect tonal balance for your guitars, drums, vocals, and more.

  • Real-Time Circuit Emulation: Our advanced component-level modeling technology ensures the GA-GT2 sounds and responds just like its analog counterpart, offering unparalleled authenticity.

  • SSE2 and Apple Silicon Optimized: With support for SSE2 instructions and Apple Silicon, the GA-GT2 runs efficiently on modern systems, delivering premium performance with minimal CPU load.

  • Auto-Adjusted Oversampling: For optimal transparency and fidelity, the GA-GT2 uses low-latency linear phase Dolph-Chebyshev polyphase filtering, ensuring superior sound quality across all session sample rates.

  • High DPI/Retina Support: Designed for modern high-resolution displays, the GA-GT2 offers a sleek and intuitive interface optimized for both Windows and macOS environments.

Modern Design, Vintage Sound

The GA-GT2 plugin is designed to not only perform but also look great in your DAW. Its sleek, powder-coated GUI emulates the aesthetics of a 19-inch rack unit, allowing users to stack multiple instances vertically, enhancing workflow efficiency.
