Free, open source saturator for Linux, macOS and Windows (VST3 and standalone). It keeps the dynamics of your sound: the input is divided by its own envelope, saturated, then multiplied by the envelope again, so it behaves the same at any input level.

Manual: PDF with interface tour, opens in the browser

Controls

  • Drive: saturation amount. At 0 % a very light touch of warmth stays on by design.
  • Fuzz: adds clipped high frequencies.
  • Color: emphasises a band (150 Hz to 6 kHz) before saturation.
  • Stereo Turbo: delays the right channel for width.
  • Mix, Output, presets, Randomize, hover tips (can be turned off).
  • Displays: saturation curve, tone (color and fuzz) with Hz and dB axes, particle stereo view, IN/OUT meters in dB.

Early. Builds in CI; not tuned by ear yet.
