Still Saturate
Line-amp saturator with Drive, Odd harmonics, tone shaping, Mid/Side and auto gain.
Also in the Drums & Band bundle
Prices are adjusted for your region.
What it does
Still Saturate pushes the signal into a line-amp style curve for warmth, weight and bite. Drive sets how hard it's pushed, Odd adds tube-like edge, and shelves and filters shape the tone going in.
Auto gain keeps the level matched, so you hear colour, not loudness. Clean mode reduces aliasing without adding latency.
