Decapitator
Soundtoys
Thicken any track with five studio-grade saturation models—from subtle warmth to aggressive distortion—all shaped by analog circuitry that responds dynamically like the real hardware.
Overdrive is a saturation effect that emulates the warm distortion produced by field effect transistor (FET) amplifiers, commonly used in solid-state musical instrument amplifiers and hardware effects devices. It generates warmer-sounding distortion than bipolar transistor-based alternatives, making it ideal for adding colored saturation to tracks while maintaining musical character.
