The Ultimate Tube Saturation Experience – Now in Gold

Say hello to one of the richest tube saturation collections ever released by AnalogX. Vulture Culture delivers the unmistakable tone of a famous red-box tube saturation unit, now powered by our state-of-the-art Gold Series modeling. Whether you're adding a whisper of warmth or dialing in full-throttle distortion, this pack lets you sculpt your tone with the same unpredictable beauty and harmonic chaos that made the original hardware so iconic.

This is saturation with soul. And it absolutely sings in the mix.

A Short History – From Boutique to Bold

First released in the early 1990s by a small UK-based boutique manufacturer, the original hardware became an instant hit with top producers and engineers. Designed as a valve-based distortion box for tracking and mixing, it quickly earned a reputation for its ability to deliver everything from gentle harmonic glue to full-on sonic annihilation.

Its bright red chassis and switchable tube modes—triode, pentode, and a proprietary PK1 mode—gave engineers powerful tools to shape harmonics like never before. It became a go-to on vocals, drums, and full mixes, delivering that elusive balance of tube grit, transient bite, and analog weight.

With Vulture Culture, AnalogX pays homage to this legendary piece of gear through a transformative digital recreation powered by our Gold modeling system.

What’s Inside

This collection includes 15 emulations, each based on different tube modes, gain structures, and drive settings. Sampled at 192kHz and processed into Gold Series .GEN format, these captures offer high fidelity, smooth transient handling, and beautifully complex harmonic curves.

Included Emulations:

• Triode, Pentode, and PK1 tube stages
• Variable gain and biasing combinations
• With and without low-pass filters engaged
• Subtle to aggressive drive settings
• Unique transformer interactions

From silky valve glue to molten tube aggression—it's all here, with detailed, natural responses that make digital feel near-analog.

Why Choose Vulture Culture?

• Gold Series Modeling: More harmonic depth and analog realism than ever before
• Multiple Tube Stages: Switch between triode, pentode, and PK1 for different harmonic flavors
• Transformative Tone Control: Great for subtle warmth or full mix-bus saturation
• Parallel Friendly: Ideal for blending character without overpowering
• Incredible Versatility: Works wonders on vocals, drums, guitars, and entire mixes

When to Use It

• Vocals – Add warmth, presence, and gentle harmonic shaping
• Mix Bus – Subtle glue or full-bodied drive without harshness
• Drum Buses – Tighten low end, enhance transients, and add punch
• FX Returns & Synths – For coloration and movement
• Mastering – Use in parallel or subtly for vintage analog thickness

Captured at 192kHz, Modeled at 48kHz

All emulations are captured at 192kHz for maximum detail, then modeled at 48kHz for optimized performance in GENESIS. This ensures pristine fidelity while staying efficient enough for real-world mixing and production.

Gold Series CPU Notice

Gold Series models strike the balance between high-resolution analog modeling and efficient real-time performance. While they use slightly more CPU than standard Series 5 emulations, they are still well-suited for tracking and mixing workflows without compromise.
