Minta Foundry Patina v1.0.3 U2B macOS

Patina is a vinyl audio plugin that recreates the full analog experience — from the crackle and warmth of a well-loved record to the subtle imperfections of the stylus, the groove, and the machine that plays it all back.

Under the Hood
Every Detail, Modeled
Patina recreates the distinct characteristics of vinyl playback, from the physical mechanics of the stylus to the warmth of analog circuitry.

Crackle
25 surface noise textures with shaping controls for volume, width, filtering, and physical impact on the audio

Vinyl Age
Years of accumulated wear modeled as high-frequency softening, an increased noise floor, and gentle compression

Vinyl Warp
Slow pitch wobble from a warped disc — the effect deepens gradually as it approaches the inner grooves

Vinyl Drift
Smooth once-per-revolution pitch drift caused by an off-center spindle hole — subtle and always moving

Inner Groove Distortion
Intermodulation distortion and high-frequency loss from the reduced groove velocity near the record label

Stylus Resonance
The cartridge's natural resonant peak — a high-frequency lift that adds brightness, air, and presence

Worn Stylus
Dulled highs, added grit, and increased noise from a diamond tip worn down by hundreds of hours of play

Stylus Pinch
Frequency-doubling distortion from the stylus shifting against the groove walls under heavy bass content

RIAA Character
Tonal coloration from vinyl's analog signal chain — adding warmth, gentle saturation, and cushioned bass

RIAA Mismatch
Shifts the playback EQ correction curve between warm, lush and full or bright, punchy and mid-forward

Vinyl Compression
Mechanical groove compression — bass energy modulates the treble, creating subtle pumping and HF ducking

Ghost Echo
Adjacent groove bleed — loud passages imprint faint ghostly traces into the neighboring grooves around them

Turntable Rumble
Low-frequency vibration from the motor and platter bearings — a sub-bass presence felt more than heard

Stereo Field
Stereo width control ranging from tight mono-compatible narrowing to wide, spacious stereo enhancement

Mastering House
Four distinct mastering chain characters — each with its own lathes, tape machines, and sonic fingerprint
