The Modern British Console Standard
Lime 2 is a massive suite based on the legendary AMS Neve 88RS console. It represents the pinnacle of modern analog engineering—clean, powerful, and incredibly versatile. It is the sound of modern Hollywood blockbusters and chart-topping pop hits.
Key Features
-
14 Distinct Preamps: A vast selection of input stages that allow you to add subtle harmonic weight or rich analog texture to any source.
-
The "A" and "B" EQs: You get two different EQ flavors. "A" is the smooth, sophisticated 88RS sound, while "B" offers a slightly more vintage, punchy British character.
-
Precision Dynamics: Features a highly responsive compressor and limiter, along with one of the best gate/expander emulations in the Acustica catalog.
-
Hyper Integration: Lime 2 benefits from Acustica's Hyper technology, making the dynamics section react faster and more accurately while being lighter on your CPU.
-
Authentic Routing: Just like the physical desk, you can reorder the signal chain (EQ-Comp or Comp-EQ) to suit your mixing needs.
Pro Tip: Use Lime as your primary channel strip across the entire session. By engaging the preamps on every track, the subtle harmonic layers stack up, creating a 3D depth and "expensive" analog cohesion that standard digital plugins simply can't provide.
