Distortion Styles

Each style is inspired by classic analog hardware with its own character.

Console 70s

Warm, mid-forward saturation inspired by classic mixing desks. Soft and musical.

Tape

Rounded highs and thicker lows with a slower saturation curve. Smooth compression feel.

Tube

Gentle 2nd-harmonic emphasis with asymmetric saturation. Warm glow character.

Transformer
