01Overview

MSaturatorMB is an effects plugin in the saturation category from MeldaProduction. Its core idea is multiband processing: you divide the signal into independent bands and shape each one separately. The developer describes the sound as ranging from smooth to aggressive, and the plugin offers two interfaces, a simple default mode for quick results and an advanced mode with the full feature set. It is built for both quick experiments and detailed sound design.

Multiband Crossover and Saturation Control

MSaturatorMB offers 1 to 6 fully configurable independent bands. The crossover can run on three algorithms: analog, linear-phase and hybrid. Each band has adjustable limits and input gains, and peak meters are shown for every band and the master output.

The oscillator shape is continuously adjustable. Each oscillator is defined by a mix of predefined shapes, custom waveforms edited with the MeldaProduction Envelope System, a step sequencer and several algorithmic post-processing methods. Adjustable up-sampling from 1x to 16x is available to reduce aliasing.

Modulation, Sync and Workflow

The plugin includes four global modulators. Each can work as an LFO, follower, MIDI or audio triggered ADSR envelope, pitch detector, or a combination, and can modulate any set of parameters, including other modulators.

Oscillators and modulators can sync to the host tempo. Any parameter can be mapped to a MIDI controller with MIDI learn and automated. A full randomization button generates new settings, and holding Ctrl limits changes to small adjustments of existing settings. Global preset management lets you save settings for use in other projects.
