Overview

Acoustic sources, room and all.

CLA Unplugged is the acoustic counterpart to Chris Lord-Alge's other signature plugins, six effects tuned for piano, acoustic guitar, strings, woodwinds and voice. Two reverbs with independent pre-delay do most of the work, since an acoustic instrument mainly needs a convincing space around it. A delay, compression and bass and treble curves shaped for acoustic sources complete the chain, and each effect offers three modes rather than continuous adjustment.

Highlights

Spectral shaping at both ends to place the instrument in the arrangement
