IMPORTANT: The new HQ 2 .gen models require Genesis v2.1.0 or later. HQ 2 is high quality deep neural model framework designed to be used with GPU / Genesis Pro, but the models will run on CPU / Core. CPU / Core users may need to bounce in place.

UPDATE 22.06.26

To celebrate the release of Genesis 2.1.0, and to mark a major step forward with our market leading Analog Emulation Technology (HQ Version 2.0), we are making the NV-1058 Genesis pack available as a free download.

This update introduces our new HQ 2 modelling tier, representing a significant technological breakthrough for AnalogX. The NV-1058 has now been re-modelled to take full advantage of this new process, delivering smoother dynamics, more realistic analogue response, Wavenet artifact removal and improved harmonic behaviour throughout the gain range.

The result is a more refined and accurate emulation of a much-loved British-style preamp sound, now rebuilt for the latest generation of Genesis.

Modelled at 48kHz using our HQ 2 modelling tier, this pack captures the weight, midrange authority, top-end presence, and analog depth that make this style of vintage preamp so useful across vocals, instruments, stems, and buses.

What’s Inside

This updated pack includes multiple HQ 2 captures, each representing a distinct flavour and gain structure.

Included emulations:

1058_01_MED_(CH1)HQ_v2.gen
1058_01_MED(CH2)HQ_v2.gen
1058_02_HIGH(CH1)HQ_v2.gen
1058_02_HIGH(CH2)HQ_v2.gen
1058_03_MED_BRIGHT(CH1)HQ_v2.gen
1058_03_MED_BRIGHT(CH2)HQ_v2.gen
1058_03_MED_BRIGHT(Stereo)HQ_v2.gen
1058_04_SMASHED_BRIGHT(CH1)HQ_v2.gen
1058_04_SMASHED_BRIGHT(CH2)HQ_v2.gen
1058_04_SMASHED_BRIGHT(Stereo)_HQ_v2.gen

The MED captures offer balanced colour, stable harmonic enhancement, and an easy starting point for general-purpose use.

The HIGH captures push further into stronger saturation and more assertive analog character, making them well suited to sources that benefit from added energy, density, and forward tone.

The MED_BRIGHT captures retain body while introducing a more open and present top end. These are excellent when clarity and edge are needed without sacrificing tonal weight.

The SMASHED_BRIGHT captures are the most driven in the collection, offering obvious attitude, stronger harmonic excitement, and a more aggressive sense of finish.

The stereo versions are ideal for buses, stereo stems, and full mix processing where you want the same tonal identity across a wider source.

All captures are calibrated for Red Drive at 0 (12 o’clock). This ensures we deliver the intended analog response and harmonic structure while still leaving room for further creative adjustment if required.

A Brief History

The NV-1058 concept is rooted in the unmistakable sound of classic British discrete preamp design: thick lows, forward mids, musical saturation, and a top end that can feel both authoritative and refined.

Over time, this type of preamp has become a go-to choice for engineers who want more than transparency. It is valued for the way it shapes transients, reinforces presence, and adds a finished sense of analogue density to modern digital productions.

This updated Genesis release preserves that core identity while benefiting from the latest advances in our modelling technology.

Why It Stands Out

Use the MED captures when you want a balanced introduction to the NV-1058 tone.
Use the HIGH captures when you want extra drive, stronger harmonics, and more obvious colour.
Use the MED_BRIGHT captures when you want additional presence and openness.
Use the SMASHED_BRIGHT captures when you want the most attitude and the most driven behaviour in the pack.

This pack is not simply a reissue.
It is a meaningful update, resampled and built around the capabilities of Genesis 2.1.0 and our new HQ 2 modelling standard.
