🔥 The Definitive Tube Compression Palette — Now in Ethereum

The AnalogX Strohm 1660 Emulations capture the legendary weight, glow, and responsiveness of a boutique dual-triode tube compressor, now available in 10 expertly profiled Ethereum emulations. Each one is handcrafted from high-resolution samples and dialed-in by a pro engineer to showcase the best this unit has to offer—from gentle mastering glue to absolute sonic destruction.

You want warm? You got it. You want grit, pump, slam? That too. This is your full-color compressor toolkit.

🎚️ What’s Inside
10 Ethereum emulations, each with its own compression character:

1. Strohm 1.0 – Warm Tube Hug – Gentle glue and warmth. Perfect for mix bus or vocals.
2. Strohm 2.0 – Transient Tamer – Fast, reactive curve for rounding off peaks while preserving tone.
3. Strohm 3.0 – Pure Tube Glue – Classic compression behavior with low-end thickness and silky highs.
4. Strohm 4.0 – Drum Bus Tightner – Punchy, midrange-forward sound for taming unruly drums.
5. Strohm 5.0 – Aggressive But Open – Brings punch and drive without choking your mix.
6. Strohm 6.0 – Smashed to Smithereens – Heavy compression for parallel mayhem or destruction.
7. Strohm 7.0 – Life Ain’t Fair-Child – Fairchild-style gain curve with added tube bloom.
8. Strohm 8.0 – Harder and Strohmger – Forward, biting, and full of attitude.
9. Strohm 9.0 – To the Limits – Maxed-out input levels and gain reduction, a true endgame sound

All profiles are captured at 96kHz and optimized at 48kHz for Genesis. CPU use remains low (~1.7% stereo / ~0.7% mono), with each model calibrated for input at -18dBFS RMS and Genesis red drive knob at -24 (Fully Left) as your starting point, turn the red drive knob to the right for more compression..

🧬 A Brief History
Originally developed as a modern high-voltage alternative to vintage levelling amplifiers, the Strohm 1660 brought tube compression into the 21st century. Its hybrid signal path and musical compression envelope made it a cult favorite for those who wanted warmth without mush, and character without chaos.

This Ethereum pack pays homage to that tonal legacy, preserving its range of dynamic responses and tube-driven punch for mixing, mastering, or total signal transformation inside Genesis.
