Understanding Acustica Audio plug-in names

Although the maximum number of characters allowed in a plug-in name can vary by format, and may technically support up to 128 characters, most Audio hosts (DAW or NLE) display a much shorter name. For instance, Pro Tools only shows up to 31 characters in its menus. To ensure consistent and readable names across all platforms, we’ve limited our plug-in names to a maximum of 20 characters.

Each Acustica Audio plug-in name is carefully structured to help you quickly identify what you’re using. The name consists of four key parts:

1. Product name and product version.
2. Processing or effect type.
3. Commercial or trial type.
4. Instance mode.

For example, we disassemble the Gold version 5 Equalizer Trial Zero Latency or GOLD5EQTZL.

1.  Product name and product version: GOLD5, or Gold version 5.
2.  Processing or effect type: GOLDEQ, which means Gold version 5 Equalizer.
3. Commercial or trial type: GOLD5EQT, which means Gold version 5 Equalizer Trial.
4. Instance mode: GOLD5EQTZL, which means Gold version 5 Equalizer Trial Zero Latency. 

Notes:

• Product version one will not include the number 1 in the name.
• Commercial products will not include the C.
• Non-zero latency instance will not include NOZL in the name.
