Cupwise Tube Radios Direct Revamped Nebula Library-ARCADiA

Cupwise Tube Radios Direct Revamped 是一套基于 Nebula 平台的模拟效果库，体积约 551MB，主打复刻老式电子管收音机的经典音色特性。它通过直接电路连接的方式采样，保留了电子管设备特有的滤波、谐波饱和与非线性动态响应。该版本在原始版本基础上进行了全面升级，现在提供 34 种不同效果程序，不仅能获得复古 Lo-Fi 音色，还可以关闭滤波，仅保留电子管的谐波饱和，从而拓展到更多混音与音色设计场景。

新版最大的变化之一是加入了可调节的过载与失真能力。每个程序都能推入更高的驱动状态，产生多种电子管风格的失真效果，可用于鼓、合成器、贝斯或母带处理等场景，营造温暖、粗糙或极具攻击性的音色。同时，非线性动态部分被独立成新的程序组，仅提供电子管压缩效果而不附带音色与失真，使其可作为独立压缩器使用。该压缩模块还加入了可调 Attack 与 Release，模拟不同电子管设备的压缩曲线与拐点，使动态处理更加真实且灵活。整体而言，这套库既能实现经典复古音染，也能作为现代混音中的饱和、失真与压缩工具使用，适合需要模拟设备质感的制作环境。

This is the classic sound of tube radios, captured with direct electrical connections. And now, I’ve revamped this collection entirely. You can still use the 34 different effects to get some vintage lo-fi tone with filtering and harmonics, but now you can bypass the filtering, leaving only the harmonic saturation. This opens the doors to a huge new range of uses.

You can also now crank them into overdrive, and each one offers a wide variety of distortions you can use as a tool in your mixes! This wasn’t possible in the past, but now you can use these programs to produce loud distortions that can sound great.

The last new major change is that the non-linear dynamics portion of the effects has been separated out into a new batch of programs. These only give you the tube compression as sampled from the radios, but without the tone or distortion. Doing it this way allows the compression to be more accurate than it ever was in the past, allowing instant squishing just like an over-driven tube radio would do. This also allows you to use the various compression knees sampled from the radios, as stand-alone compressors, in any situation where you need compression. I added attack and release controls taken from some of my sampled compressors, to allow for a wider range of results, allowing them to be used as mixing compressors.

This was my first ever release, but now these new updates overcome long existing limitations with Nebula, unlocking new powers, while also making the programs more accurate than ever before. You can check out the manual to see more information about how to use these programs, the variety you can find while using them, and how they were made.

Here are some videos attempting to demonstrate some of what can be done with these programs. The first one is a synthesizer loop with a basic sound design, which allows the distortion to be employed pretty heavy. The new ‘hot’ versions of the programs are shown off here (which you use to get the over-driven style distortion).
