The PSA1000 Analog Saturation Unit plugin is a modern recreation of a '90s classic analog guitar preamp which is used in recording studios all around the world! It is used and "abused" for recording and characterizing not only guitars but also electric pianos, organs, synthesizers, electric basses and many other instruments. The original unit has found its place even in the mix stage for processing all type of sounds, as drum rooms, percussions, vocals, kicks, snares and sound fx too! For creating the PSA1000 Analog Saturation Unit plugin, Nembrini Audio has carefully modeled the original analog circuits and finely refined it by ear as all its products. Nembrini Audio also adds new features that brings the PSA1000 Analog Saturation Unit plugin to modern days: - Independent controls for left and right channels with individual and global links - Dry/Wet mix knob for both channels - Mid/Side operation - Spread circuit to widen the stereo field - Analog Link circuit to simulate the difference between left and right channels as in real analog world - Phase Reverse switch to take advantage of the original phase changes in the real analog unit when used in parallel - In and Out level knobs for maximum versatility Works as a standalone app, AudioUnit v3 effect, or Inter-App Audio effect

Got GAS? Hi, I'm Nico. I play guitar, so I buy guitars... and amps... and pedals... and for years, I've been looking for an app like this. So I finally decided to make one. With GASlist, you can log every guitar, bass, amp, pedal, synth, or drum kit you own — with photos, detailed specs tailored to each type of gear (all the geeky stuff that actually matters to us, this is honestly what took me the most time but I think it was worth it), the serial number, and your estimated value. This is the Gear section. What makes GASlist different — and IMO makes it the best app to track your gear (but I'm obviously not objective) — is the Rigs section. Build a rig for each of your musical projects and always know what gear you're using and who you're using it with. You can also keep all your project info in one place: upcoming shows and rehearsals, locations, setlists, band riders, and more. At any time, you can export a clean PDF catalog for each item or your entire collection. Flex on your bandmates, properly insure your rig (because yes, there's a specific place in each entry to store the purchase invoice), or just send it to that person who asked for more info because you just put a piece of gear up for sale. WHAT'S INSIDE Log guitars, basses, and a genuinely absurd list of stringed instruments — 9-string electrics, baritones, microtonal double-neck guitar/basses, lap steels, electric sitars, you name it — as well as pedals, synths, and drums. Track everything you own with the specs that actually matter (the nerdy stuff, but we know it's actually important). Build rigs from your gear. Snap up to 3 photos per entry for free, or up to 10 with Premium — because one angle never does a two-tone sunburst finish justice. Choose between dark and light mode. Export a shareable PDF catalog or a full JSON backup. Works offline — your collection shows up even when the venue Wi-Fi doesn't. Sign in with Apple and sync across every device you own (we know it's more than one). GASLIST PREMIUM Unlimited instruments, amps, and pedals. Unlimited rigs. Up to 10 photos per entry. Search your entire stash. Basically: no more excuses, no more limits — just more GAS. PRIVACY No ads. No tracking. Your gear, your data, your business. Export or delete it whenever you want. I'm just a musician, so there's no shady stuff. Actually, it's made by a musician, for musicians.
