Black Q - V3
Black Q - V3 delivers smooth tube warmth, musical EQ curves, and flexible tone shaping inspired by boutique analog hardware. Perfect for adding depth, clarity, and character to vocals, mix buses, and more.

Dual tube modes
Switch between Type A for warm, full-bodied tone or Type B for brighter, crunchier midrange detail. Both modes deliver natural tube harmonics modeled from boutique transformers and vintage valve stages.

Expanded EQ curves for detailed tone shaping
Use the enhanced overlapping bands and extended frequency ranges to sculpt lows, mids, and highs with smooth, musical precision. Perfect for subtle sweetening or bold, character-forward EQ moves.

Selectable oversampling for enhanced analog feel
Enable up to 8× oversampling for richer harmonics, smoother highs, and more analog-like behavior when pushing saturation. Whether you keep it clean or drive it hard, the tone stays detailed and natural.

Features
