Review: Nembrini Audio Crunck v2 (free Vst plugin with video sample)

 


Hello everyone and welcome to this week's article!

Today we're going to talk about another interesting plugin, this time free, the almighty Nembrini Audio Crunck v2

Crunck v2 is the second version of Crunck, the first plugin designed by Igor Nembrini in the beginning of his career in DSP development more than ten years ago.
It's a virtual amplifier with a very clean and simple layout, which features all the classic controls of a real amp (gain, master, presence and eq section), and which has a bypassable cabinet section with a V30 speaker impulse response.

This virtual amplifier, which is one of the few ones available also for Iphone and Ipad through the App Store (free as well), is quite versatile and provides a very warm tone, with a gain knob that allows to dial a huge amount of gain, and lets you achieve quite a wide range of tones.

How does it sound? I'd say it sounds quite well, but it's more geared towards the rock and hard rock tones than the metal ones, since it has a lot of energy in the low mids that is not easy to get rid of (in the sample I have used an overdrive in front), so if you are looking for a creamy bluesy tone, or a fusion lead tone, this it's probably the plugin for you.

Anyway since it's free I suggest everyone to go check it out in the Nembrini website, a website that offers also other free plugins, along with paid ones.

Thumbs up!

- 3 bands EQ
