  • Stunning Phaser 1.0.0 Released! 50% Off Sale! (3/25/2026)

    Stunning Phaser has been mature, working and tested as 100% bug-free for some time now, but we still owed you some presets and a User Manual, so here they are! This makes it official, Stunning Phaser 1.0 is feature-complete and is now the best new stereo (or mono) phaser plugin you didn’t know you needed! Producers, keyboardists and guitarists alike simply have to plug it in and take it for a test drive to immediately hear why, but a quick glance at its front panel will tell you there’s a lot more going on here than the typical three or four controls we expect on the usual phaser effect. LFO modulation is there, of course, and with twists we’re famous for like our Gliss-quanti feature that chops up LFO waves into musical intervals, and the same kind of envelope follower capability found in our SCAMP filter effect that adds lively, organic feeling animation to the phaser modulation based on the input audio performance. This one does some things you’ve likely never heard from any phaser before, solid or software!

    Stunning Phaser also provides controls to simulate the flaws in analog circuit behavior; non-linearities, clipping, and imprecise frequency tuning between the phaser stages. You can have as much of those as you’d ever want, or dial them right back down to digital perfection – your choice! And what would an Admiral Quality product be without a — you guessed it — Quality control? You can throw CPU power at it for the most accurate phaser model you’ve ever heard, or dial it back down for economical performance (like every other phaser plug-in is stuck at!) Again, your choice! But our C++ code is fast and efficient, so even at the highest Quality setting (16x internal oversampling!), you’ll likely rarely need to turn it down.

    Beyond LFO and envelope follower, the third modulation source Stunning Phaser offers is… you! Stunning Phaser takes MIDI CC# input for the two most performable controls, so use your favorite MIDI hardware expression pedals or controller keyboards to play it manually (or in combination with the LFO and envelope followers) — wah-wah/Uni-Vibe style! And of course, every control can be automated by your host software, and nobody implements flexible controls interfaces like we do — letting the user control preference of and switch on-the-fly between Linear, Circular, and Circular-Relative knob modes! Other real-world inspired interface features like knob “detents” that snap to “sweet spots” and draggable sliders (much easier to time musically than clicking – though that works too) demonstrate the same attention to detail and reproducing a natural-feeling physical interface experience that all our products share.

    Starting now through April, we’re offering Stunning Phaser and all our other products at 50% Off to celebrate! And if you’re a new customer and would like even more savings, this is a great time to jump on our Make Me One With Everything bundle deal, that will save you a further $20 when you buy all our products together at once.

  • Poly-Ana 1.4.0 VST/AU Released (2/23/2024)


    Yes, it’s been a while! For the longest time now we’ve had no bugs to fix (how many software developers can say that?), but we’ve recently received a couple of reports and have taken care of them in the 1.4.0 Update.

    Poly-Ana‘s more affordable but just as sound-capable little sister, L’il Poly-Ana, has also received the same fixes. If you haven’t taken Poly-Ana for a spin yet you owe it to yourself to try the most convincing analog synthesizer emulation going! She sports a huge, super-capable voice architecture in an intuitive, all-in-one-panel interface. You will immediately be reminded of the best features from the most famous synths of the classic analog era, plus a few you’ve likely never seen or heard before! And like all our products, Poly-Ana is free to try, no demo time limits, you can even save and recall your work – so download her and get going right now!

    Expect this to be the first of several coming updates, the next will likely add a few new convenience features as well. And remember, our Upgrade Protection Policy means that your license will not only work with Poly-Ana 1.x, but with the entire 2.x series as well! View the Changelog history and you’ll see that we are serious about supporting our products and our customers in the long term.

    More Poly-Ana/L’il Poly-Ana demos…

    Next up from the Admiralty, The Stunning Phaser 1.0 release is finished and ready for packaging! Grab it fast to catch the final days of the 60% OFF deal while still in Beta. (Note that the current 0.5.2 Beta version is version 1.0 and is fully functional and sounds AMAZING, it’s just lacking the presets that will be included in the upcoming 1.0 release.) Or check out our Make Me One With Everything bundle offer and save $20 while having it all!

  • Admiral Quality Ends Long Term Support for Apple Platforms (1/9/2021)

    Please note: All of our products are still available in VST and AU formats for OSX and are verified working on all versions. They should continue to work until Apple makes a change that breaks them. (If you’re using a recent OSX version you will likely need to use this method to enable them: https://www.osirisguitar.com/how-to-make-unsigned-vsts-work-in-macos-catalina/ As always, we recommend you download, install and thoroughly test our products before purchasing them. All of our products run in a free demo mode with no time limits, you can even save and recall your work!)

    We regret to have to announce that Admiral Quality will no longer be producing OSX versions of our #VST/AU #plugin products in the long-term, folks. Sorry, but we can no longer afford to do business with Apple, neither financially nor morally. This has been a long time coming and GOOD RIDDANCE!

    We will continue to make the existing downloads available for our customers as long as they continue to work on all Apple platforms, but once they abandon the current format we can no longer afford to keep up. Sorry, we’re a small company and Apple’s constant intentional and needless changes create far too much unnecessary work and cost for us. They did this to you, not us. We were wrong to support their platform in the first place and we apologize. (Your existing license key-files will work on Windows too. Contact us if you need them sent to you again.)

    Update: If you’d like to know more about what we’re so unhappy about, please review this article. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/10/06/house-antitrust-subcommittee-apple-has-monopoly-power.html This is only half of it though, the other part is the constant breaking of applications with unnecessary operating system updates designed to force users to pay again for products they already bought. A game we refuse to play along with. (We’ve been doing this since 2007 and have yet to ask our customers to buy the same products again. And we have an Update Protection Policy that means it will be a long time before we ever do!)
