Make Me Scream 2 is a distortion and saturation effect plugin by W. A. Production. It combines an adjustable tube preamp with a transient-following distortion stage, offering six distortion types and six timbre modes.
Make Me Scream 2 is built around a two-stage signal path. An adjustable tube preamp feeds a distortion module that follows the transients of the input, giving the saturation stage a driven signal to work with. The developer describes the result as more dramatic and responsive than single-stage saturation. Filtering, emphasis and boost controls let you shape the distortion for individual sources such as vocals, drums, bass and full mixes.
The plugin offers six distortion types, from subtle saturation to heavy, aggressive distortion. Each type has its own character, and the interface graphics make it clear which mode is active.
Six timbre modes shape how the signal is processed across the frequency range. Four modes carry over from the previous version: Fuzz, Wall, Cliff and Make Me Scream. Two new modes, Vintage Scream and Make Me Scream 2, add analog warmth and musical overdrive.
Filter controls offer High, Low and Band pass modes with an adjustable cutoff, so you can target the top end of a whole track or only the low end of a bass line. The Emphasis control boosts frequencies around the cutoff, and the Envelope Follower makes the effect react to the signal's transients for a rhythmic, auto-wah style movement.
A live meter shows the signal as it is processed. Boundary lines at the top and bottom indicate when the output goes beyond 0 dB, helping you separate the distortion character from digital clipping. Oversampling can be set from x1 up to x16, and the Output and Dry/Wet controls help with level matching and blending.
