The King of British Valve Tone — Reborn in the Box
This is it. The boldest, filthiest, smoothest, and most unapologetically British saturation emulation we’ve ever made.
Inspired by one of the most legendary tone-shaping boxes ever to grace a console rack, AnalogX proudly presents:

The Rooster – Saturation Emulations, now with brand new HQ v2.0 models included..

What’s Inside
A full suite of tonal options, now available in two tiers:

Triode Mode

• rooster triode 1
• rooster triode 2
• rooster triode 3
• rooster triode 4
• rooster triode 5
• rooster triode max

Pentode Mode

• rooster pentode 1
• rooster pentode 2
• rooster pentode 3
• rooster pentode 4
• rooster pentode 5
• rooster pentode max

Each emulation is dialled in to match the exact gain and behaviour of the original five-position "Attitude" control.

A Brief History
The Rooster was no ordinary tube EQ — it was a transformer-loaded, tube-saturated beast with switchable Triode and Pentode modes, built to add real colour, weight, and authority to modern DAW recordings.

From subtle sweetening to full-fat distortion, it quickly gained a cult following. The five-position Attitude switch was the key — scaling the harmonic complexity and drive without needing to re-dial every knob.

Why It Stands Out

• Dual Personality: Triode = smooth and rounded; Pentode = bold and harmonically rich
• New Standard Tier Included: All 12 profiles now also available in lightweight models — ideal for tracking or large sessions
• HQ v2.0 Modelling Tier: Meticulously designed to capture analog saturation
• Unity Gain Tone Matching: -18 RMS input with Red drive at 12 o’clock hits the sweet spot — no guesswork needed

Pro Use Cases

Want to get creative? Try Triode 2 + Pentode 4 in parallel for a dual-stage saturation chain with modern punch and vintage warmth.

💬 What Producers Are Saying

“Closest I’ve ever heard to the real Rooster — and I own one. This is nuts.”
— Dan L., Producer/Engineer

“That pentode max setting on drums? Instant attitude. It made my kick sound like it was tracked to tape in 1972.”
— Kelly W., Mixer/Artist

“Triode 1 is now my go-to vocal sweetener. Just enough vibe without any mess.”
— Mike R., Engineer
