The tf 72a V2 Black Friday deal from Tone Empire takes 75% off this tube preamp plugin, which puts it at $19 until Nov 25, 2026.
TF-72a V2 is a preamp plugin for tracking vocals, guitars, drums or any other source in your DAW. Tone Empire describes it as an emulation of a vintage German tube preamp, built with neural networks and deep learning.
The signal runs through the valve processing stage. Input/Drive sets how hard you push it, and Output attenuates the level after the valve stage.
A Link switch ties the two together. Push the drive up and the output is trimmed automatically, so you keep a steady level while you dial in the tone.
The GUI is resizable. Drag the bottom right corner of the window to fit your display.
V2 brings newly trained models and an Ultra-x mode. It also supports all major sample rates, and Tone Empire says the sonic response is improved.
If you own TF-72a V1, the maker says you are entitled to a free upgrade to V2. The upgrade is waiting in your Tone Empire account.
