On May 6, 2026, Acustica Audio announced the launch of RUST 2, a passive equalizer plug-in aimed at music producers and audio engineers.
This new plug-in is built around a distinctive seven-band EQ design from the 1960s, which is rare in modern audio production tools.
RUST 2 utilizes Acustica's NOVA engine to enhance sound quality, focusing on fixed-band passive EQ tone and incorporating input-driven harmonic saturation.
