Blond is a distinctive plugin suite inspired by rare Italian audio hardware from the 1950s through the 1980s. Carefully recreated from nearly impossible-to-find vintage units, this collection offers a unique sonic experience rooted in Italy's rich audio engineering heritage. These hardware pieces have either achieved legendary status among professionals or remain hidden gems cherished by dedicated collectors, making their digital counterparts truly exceptional.

The suite features two equalizer models that capture the essence of classic Italian designs. One is a transparent 4-band EQ that replicates the sound of a 1970s console, sampled at a boutique studio in the Italian countryside. The other is a transformer-based 4-band parametric EQ from the 1980s, prized for its character and mastering capabilities. Beyond equalization, the Pre-Mixer module offers a creative processing tool with a bold, non-linear response, drawing from solid-state and tube-based units to add warmth and mojo to your mixes.

Blond also includes a preamp collection with 74 models across four banks, providing a broad palette of tonal options to shape your sound. Its dynamics section features five distinct processors, including tube, optical, and FET-style compressors, modeled from limited-production Italian hardware. This plugin suite makes rare, vintage tones accessible, allowing you to infuse your productions with character and depth that stand out in any mix.
