HEAD - Pentode, Triode & Tape Emulations (GENESIS)

AnalogX – HEAD Emulations

Exclusive to Genesis | Sampled at 96Hz | Powered by Gold & Ethereum Series
Price: £16

A Harmonic Enhancement Masterpiece, Reimagined for Genesis

The AnalogX HEAD pack pays homage to one of the most sought-after studio tools of the hybrid age—an advanced digital-to-analog and analog-to-digital converter famed for its ability to add character using Triode, Pentode, and Tape harmonic stages. Inspired by this ground-breaking unit, we’ve crafted high-resolution emulations that not only mirror the hardware’s sonic vibe but unlock its full potential for your DAW sessions.

Built using our high-fidelity Gold and Ethereum Series models, HEAD provides unparalleled tonal shaping, from clean harmonic enhancement to rich, analog-style drive. Whether you want subtle sweetness or full-bodied saturation, this pack gives you that extra "record-ready" edge.

🎚️ What’s Inside

Each HEAD emulation was captured at 96kHz and carefully modelled to preserve its analog soul while giving you flexible tonal variations through combinations of Triode, Pentode, and Tape drive circuits.

Included HEAD Emulations:

• CS HEAD 1.0 – 25% Pentode, 50% Triode, 50% Tape
• CS HEAD 2.0 – 70% Pentode, 70% Triode, 80% Tape
• CS HEAD 3.0 – 25% Pentode, 25% Triode, 30% Tape
• CS HEAD 4.0 – 40% Pentode, 40% Triode, 50% Tape

Perfect for tracking, mixing, or mastering, these emulations are calibrated to -18dBFS input at unity Red Drive gain (12 o'clock) for best performance in Genesis v1.02 (coming soon for Mac & PC).

🧬 A Brief History

Originally released as a premium mastering-grade converter, the hardware that inspired this pack was revered not only for its pristine AD/DA conversion but also for its built-in tone-shaping modules. Engineers could blend Triode, Pentode, and Tape harmonics—mimicking the behaviour of tube circuits and analog tape—while still working in the digital domain.

It quickly became a secret weapon in mastering and hybrid setups, known for its ability to add warmth, roundness, and focus to any signal. With HEAD, we've brought that sonic legacy into Genesis—transforming your digital chain into a harmonically rich analog-inspired environment.

💡 Why It Stands Out

• Hyper-Focused Harmonic Design – Easily dial in vibe with musical Triode warmth, Pentode punch, and Tape glue.
• Built for Modern Workflows – Zero-latency tracking. Perfect for vocals, drums, bass, and mix buses.
• Multiple Drive Variants – Tame or push it—these profiles give you full control over saturation intensity.
• Gold & Ethereum Series – Choose between deep modelling (Gold) and ultra-fidelity performance (Ethereum).

Near analog… we don’t pretend to be analog, we don't market our products as analog, but we think we are nearer than most — we’ll let the user decide.
