The knobs
Colour, then clip.
A two-stage saturator with tilt and a lookahead clipper. The meters tell you when it is working.
- Tone
- −100 to +100. Dark weight or lifted top, before the drive gets greedy.
- Drive
- How hard the core works. Warmth at the left, attitude at the right.
- Clip
- Lookahead clip. Transients stay in the box; clip flash tells you when they don’t.
- Mix
- Parallel colour. Keep the dry punch, add the harmonic.
Gain + quality
Input, Output, Auto Gain.
True peak, RMS, correlation, and drive amount — so you mix the heat, not the loudness trick.
- Input / Output
- ±24 dB. Stage in, stage out. Silver knobs, same job as on Comp.
- Auto Gain
- On by default. Compare drive without the “louder is better” lie.
- Quality
- Auto, 2×, 4×, 8× oversampling. Spend CPU where the source needs it.
- MIDI learn
- Input, Drive, Tone, Clip, Output, Mix.
