Description:
Harmonic distortion plugin, analog waveform model, extensive modulation capabilities.
Features :
Five high-quality waveform engines: harmonic, tube, saturation, step, and fold.
Extremely low aliasing.
Three multi-type filters can be applied before and/or after wave shaping.
Four types of guitar amp tone stack simulations are included.
Several types of soft saturation are available: tape, classic, distortion, hyper, and clipping.
The “Steps” slider allows for smooth bit rate adjustment.
The wave sweep engine provides user-configurable symmetrical and asymmetrical breakpoints.
A variable-slope low-pass filter is ideal for working with harmonic distortion products.
The direct channel can be independently filtered and mixed in dry/wet mode with the shaping sound.
Graphical editing of filter parameters is available on the spectrum display.
Frequency spectrum with zoom capability and waveform display with f0 sync.
Built-in input/output signal meters.
DC offset filter.
Modulation system with the ability to configure up to 16 modulation rules with independent gains. Internal modulation sources: two low-frequency oscillators, two dynamics detectors, and three user-configurable knobs.
Sidechain input for the dynamics detector.
MIDI input with modulation system.
Low processing latency of 6 samples (minimum phase mode) allows for real-time operation.
Unlimited undo/redo for all actions.
Plugin formats: AudioUnits/AAX/VST/VST3 for macOS (64-bit for Intel/ARM processors) and Windows (32- and 64-bit for Intel processors).
Built-in system-wide preset management with the ability to import and export preset files compatible with different platforms and hosts in XML format.
Light and dark color schemes, as well as support for custom color schemes.
VST3 plugins are installed in the VST2 plugin folder (a hacker error); simply move them to the desired path: C:\Program Files\Common Files\VST3
