The distinction between boring and thrilling can generally simply be saturation. However not solely its amount, but additionally its character.
We consider that each frequency band deserves completely different therapy, which is why we created Plamen.
This versatile multi-band saturator can provide a unique look and saturation to every band, leading to a balanced tone, and it may well even do it in parallel!
Totally different frequency bands in audio can have completely different vitality ranges, and while you apply saturation evenly throughout the spectrum, it may end up in an unbalanced sound. Plamen permits you to selectively add heat and harmonics to 5 adjustable frequency ranges at completely different parallel ranges, thereby attaining a extra balanced and pleasing tonal character.
With Plamen, you’ll be able to concentrate on particular components of the combo, resembling including heat and richness to the bass frequencies, including harmonics to the mids so the devices minimize by the combo, or including sparkle to the treble. This focused enchancment helps to spotlight particular person components and contributes to a clearer mixture.
Plamen can be utilized on tracks with vocals and particular person devices, in addition to on grasp tracks. It is a useful gizmo for sound designers and producers who need to experiment and create distinctive sounds. By making use of completely different saturation traits to completely different frequency ranges with completely different dry/processed sound ratios, you’ll be able to create attention-grabbing textures, harmonics, and timbres that will not be achievable with conventional saturation strategies.
Though there are lots of knobs in Plamen, making use of saturation may be very easy. Merely choose the saturation kind, alter the band’s enter achieve, choose the parallel added shade quantity (MOJO), and steadiness the band’s output quantity. For those who lack drive, use AGC Increase so as to add an additional 10 dB to the group enter.
Plamen affords 5 completely different saturation sorts for every band, permitting you to decide on the proper shade and character on your sound. Every band can use three basic forms of analog preamps: simulated tape saturation (Magnetic) or clipping (a method of saturation or distortion widespread to lots of your favourite AD managed enter sorts).
As well as, you’ll be able to add the general Tape Wow impact, which is a comparatively sluggish type of flutter (pitch variation) that you could be know from classic tape recorders.
The 4 crossover factors offer you ample management over the frequencies you need to saturate. It’s your selection of what you think about subwoofers, bass, low-mids, high-mids, and treble. The crossover works in two modes. You’ll be able to swap between linear part or 6dB/octave analog kind.
Every frequency band might be soloed or muted (bypassed). This function needs to be used if you end up testing the affect of a particular band, or just need to add saturation to solely chosen bands. You should utilize not solely the drive enter of the bands, but additionally a completely parallel Mojo or a further Parallel Dry/Moist combine for the entire plugin! And that is all within the Linear part!
Plamen goes the additional mile by providing 2x, 4x and 8x oversampling for max constancy and impeccable sound high quality. By resampling audio, you’ll be able to eradicate undesirable artifacts and distortion, leaving nothing however crystal-clear, professional-grade outcomes.
