Introducing Acoustifier from Solid State Logic — a powerful new D.I.-to-mic simulation plug-in that transforms your acoustic guitar D.I. signal into a rich, studio-quality recording. By emulating the sound of a dual-microphone setup, Acoustifier enhances your dry guitar tone with advanced D.I.-to-acoustic modelling and onboard SSL-grade EQ, compression, and reverb. Acoustifier is the all-in-one solution for achieving the best possible D.I. tone, regardless of your location.

I always struggle with getting an acoustic mic’ed right, in spite of the fact that the rest of the world seems to do it fairly easily, so I’m definitely going to test drive this thing.  I’ve tried other plugins in the past that never seemed to get it right, but maybe this is the one.

@jude77, I instantly recalled Nembrini’s Acoustic Voice Guitar Preamp when I saw this one. I didn’t grab it back then cos the results I got weren’t impressive, and I’m glad I didn’t — this looks way more powerful. This might be one of those rare unplanned purchases during this BF. Anyway, let’s wait for trial versions and video demos to investigate further.

@mustakatu I’m with you.  I tried Nembrini too and just wasn’t satisfied.   I just found this demo of the SLL.  Just doesn’t sound like it’s quite there to me.

The Nembrini one is crap. I think Blue Cat has ome. Never bothered. But…what i did do was get Aberrant Tectonic. It turns a lined acoustic imto a thing of beauty which is not easy.

I thought I’d follow up on your tip and find a link to Aberrant Tectonic. It’s on sale for $16 right now (regularly $24), which seems like a great deal if it can accomplish what it’s accomplished for you:

Guys, sadly this doesn’t seem to be the one either. First of all, it doesn’t allow you to load your own IRs, which is kind of a deal-breaker for me here. I have some, like the 3 Sigma Audio acoustic IRs, and need an option to use them there (BTW, 3 Sigma Audio IRs are top-notch, and they have their own plugin solution called Acoustify, which costs $20, but unfortunately only works with their own GEN4 packs). Secondly, people on Youtube and forums are already saying the results sound plasticky no matter what. I have an opportunity to grab it for $29 now, and probably still shall pass. Will wait for more demo videos before even considering to download a trial version myself. And yes, examples in the official SSL video aren’t convincing. Meanwhile I’ll give Tectonic a try, thanks for the recommendation.
