Saturation
AIR Distortion
Avid
Crush signals with three distinct saturation flavors, then refine the high-end with surgical pre-shaping and asymmetrical clipping for aggressive yet controlled tone.
Saturator is a waveshaping saturation effect that adds dirt, punch, or warmth to audio by applying non-linear shaping to the input signal. It offers eight curve types ranging from soft saturation to intense coloration, with additional color filters and a dedicated waveshaper mode for complex harmonic manipulation.
