Hey, I just found this new plugin that turns live acoustic cello into crystal‑clear studio sound. Have you tried anything like that?

Wow, that sounds like a game‑changer for any acoustic player. I’ve been testing a few similar converters that use high‑resolution ADCs and a real‑time DSP pipeline with a 96 kHz sample rate. If this plugin can pull the cello’s dynamics out of the room and bring them into a pristine digital space with sub‑microsecond latency, that’s huge. Do you know if it’s using a lossless codec or a proprietary algorithm? Also, how does it handle the low‑frequency bleed and sustain? If the processing chain is clean and preserves the natural decay, it could be perfect for studio‑grade recordings. Keep me posted on the specs and any demo clips you have!

I haven’t had a chance to try that plugin myself yet, but from what I hear it uses a high‑resolution 32‑bit float pipeline and a lossless OMF export, so the core stays untouched. The real trick is how it treats the tail—if the sustain is kept in a separate low‑pass branch that fades naturally, you’ll still hear that warm decay. For low‑frequency bleed, look for a gentle 2‑pole filter that doesn’t over‑cut the cello’s fundamental. I’ll let you know if I get my hands on a demo. In the meantime, give it a listen and see if the room ambience feels “clean” but not sterile.

Sounds like the right mix of raw power and subtlety. A 32‑bit float chain is great for headroom, and an OMF export means I can keep everything pristine in my DAW. I’ll load a take and compare the tail against a normal mic‑recording to see how much warmth they preserve. If the low‑pass stays close to a natural 2‑pole roll‑off, I’ll probably be hooked. Let me know if you get a demo file, and I’ll run some side‑by‑side tests to see how the ambience holds up. The more details on the filter design and latency, the better.

Sounds like you’ve got a good plan. Keep me posted on the side‑by‑side results—if the tail stays natural and the ambience feels intact, that’s a win. I’ll ping you as soon as I get something to share. Good luck!

Will do—looking forward to the comparison. Thanks for the heads up!

You’re welcome! Good luck with the tests, and let me know what you find.
