PSP MixSaturator
General information
Description
PSP MixSaturator is a specialised processor whose aim is to produce a saturated sound, typical for such analog devices as tape recorders and valve circuits. In the interests of ensuring a wide range of sound possibilities and high sound quality, three algorithms have been used in this plug-in:
- the analog saturation simulation algorithm, which enables the user to choose one of the seven curves of non-linearity characteristic of valve devices, analog tape and digital clipping,
- the bass frequencies processing algorithm, whose aim is to add warmth to the sound within the bass frequencies range, through adding harmonics and increasing the bass in a recording,
- the treble frequencies processing algorithm, which gives the user the possibility of simulating tape saturation within the treble frequencies range, without increasing the level of distortion and aliasing.
Features
- the simulation of saturated sound characteristic of valve devices and tape recorders,
- a wide range of possible sounds,
- special circuits to shape the sound of bass and treble frequencies,
- a library of 24 presets.
Applications
- the enriching of sound with harmonics and increasing the mean level while recording, mixing and mastering,
- the processing of mixes and single tracks.
Compatibility
PSP MixSaturator is compatible with applications which operate the standard VST plug-ins. The product has been tested in the following applications:
- Steinberg Cubase VST 4.x i 5.x
- Emagic Logic Audio 4.1
- Prosoniq sonicWORX 2.x
- TC Works Spark
