KAGE Music have introduced the KG Series, a collection of free, analogue-inspired audio plug-ins aimed at lowering barriers for music creators. The series includes a range of tools from equalisers and compressors to saturators and reverb, all designed with proprietary signal processing to emulate the behavior of real analogue circuits.
The KG Series is designed for artists at all levels, from beginners seeking affordable access to professional tools, to experienced producers looking for versatile analogue-style processing in a stress-free creative environment. Each plug-in is designed using a node-based circuit simulation engine to faithfully replicate the sonic characteristics of analog hardware, from transistors and capacitors to tube emulation.
The KG Series includes the following plug-ins:
- KG-EQP – Analogue-style equaliser for warmth and depth
- KG-FREQ6 – 6-band equaliser for detailed tonal shaping
- KG-SUB – Low-end enhancer for smooth sub frequencies
- KG-CLARITY – Vocal and mix clarity enhancer
- KG-COMP – Dual-stage dynamic compressor with warm character
- KG-2A – Optical-style compressor with analogue warmth
- KG-DEESSER – Transparent sibilance reduction for vocals
- KG-TUBE – Analogue-style saturator adding depth and harmonics
- KG-SATURATOR – Three-band saturator with vintage tone and noise options
- KG-VERB – Analogue-style reverb for natural spatial effects
- KG-ARCL – Auto-release limiter providing smooth dynamic control
The plug-ins run on modern systems with a processor supporting the SSE2 instruction set (Intel Core i7 8th generation / AMD Ryzen 7 2700X or higher), at least 8 GB of RAM (16 GB recommended), and a GPU with 1920×1080 display support (NVIDIA GTX 960 / AMD R7 370 or higher) with DirectX 11 or later.
Price & Availability
The KG Series is available for free with no restrictions, although KAGE Music offers an optional support system for donations that provides contributors with additional benefits and helps fund ongoing development.
