Product Detail
The Aurora Craft Series combines the artistry of hardware amplifiers with the flexibility of DSP. It all begins with Mr. Hector, a beloved boutique amplifier from Laboga. Digitally recreated and finely tuned, every detail is crafted for an accurate and familiar sound. The Aurora Mr. Hector plugin offers a studio - quality package based on an iconic hi - gain amplifier. It gives you access to the Laboga Mr. Hector amplifier, two distinct Laboga cabinets, various speaker and microphone combos, three unique stomp pedals, and an FX section with four sound - defining effects. The pedal section includes an overdrive pedal based on the tube screamer effect, adding dynamics to your sound. The transient shaper sharpens string attacks and brightens your guitar sound, while the boosting pre - amp caters to the demand for early - stage dynamic shaping in metal music. The FX rack features a 10 - band EQ for precise frequency adjustment, a limiter to set the maximum signal level, a ping - pong delay for a classic stereo effect, and a versatile reverb. The studio - captured impulse responses from famous Laboga cabinets offer endless sound - shaping possibilities. You can play, practice, and create presets using the standalone application. The main window allows for quick sound changes, and expanded sections reveal the full potential of the Aurora Craft Series for a new world of guitar sound.
Using the Aurora DSP Laboga Mr. Hector plugin is easy. First, if you want to play around right away, you can open the standalone application. It's great for practicing and creating new presets even when you're not using a DAW to record. In the main window, just pick a preset and change a few main parameters, and you're good to start making music. When using the pedal section, the overdrive pedal can add a nice dynamic touch to your sound. You can think of it as giving your guitar a bit more bite. The transient shaper helps to make your guitar sound cleaner and brighter. It gets rid of those muddy frequencies and makes the important overtones stand out. The boosting pre - amp is there for you if you're into that metal - style early - stage dynamic shaping. For the FX rack, the 10 - band EQ lets you fine - tune the frequencies of your sound. You can adjust it to make your guitar sound exactly how you want. The limiter helps you control the maximum volume of your signal. Use the low - end control knob to adjust it in the 100 - 250Hz range. The ping - pong delay adds a cool stereo effect, making your sound more spacious. And the reverb can make your guitar sound like it's in a small room or a big cave. As for maintenance, make sure your software is always up - to - date. Check the official website regularly for updates. Also, keep your computer's system requirements in mind. If your computer doesn't meet the requirements, the plugin might not work as well. And always save your presets regularly so you don't lose your hard - work.
