AnalogX Dolby Type A 361 Emulation
Exclusive to Genesis | Sampled at 96 kHz | Powered by Gold+ & Ethereum+ | Calibrated to -18
Inspired by and paying homage to the famed Dolby Type A Model 361, our AnalogX emulation includes the high-frequency “encode-only” mod—where key resistors were lifted to disable the lower bands—creating that signature “Vocal Stressor” or “Air Hack” effect beloved on Depeche Mode, Queen, and more. This mod enhances vocal presence, clarity, and air without adding harshness, making top-end sparkle feel completely natural
Originally designed for cinematic noise reduction, the Dolby 361 found fame in music studios as a harmonic enhancer. Engineers like Geoff Emerick used it on John Lennon’s vocals. Studios such as Abbey Road, Capitol, and EastWest relied on it to add sheen and polish. Its unique mod, disabling lower bands, became a go-to technique for achieving a professional vocal sheen.
Unlock that vintage vocal sheen with the true-voice Dolby A 361 effect—no hardware required. AnalogX: near analog tone, modern workflow.
