SATV Saturator is an analogue-modelled saturation plugin by Mellowmuse that adds harmonic depth and richness to individual tracks, drum kits or a whole mix. It offers four selectable saturation models: Transistor, Transformer, Tube and Tape.
SATV Saturator is built for adding warmth, harmonic content and density to sources. It can be placed on a single instrument or across a multi-track drum kit. Its four saturation models cover a wide range of character, from gentle warming to heavy crunch. Input drive, mix and output controls let you set how much colour is added and balance it against the dry signal. A Group control links instances that share a number, so you can change several insertions together.
The four saturation models are Transistor, Transformer, Tube and Tape. Each one is modelled on analogue hardware, and together they give you a range of sound-shaping options. Lower drive settings can add subtle warmth, while higher settings move toward extreme crunch.
Mellowmuse describes SATV as able to change the harmonic content and dynamics of a mix, which makes it suitable for both individual sources and bus-level processing.
The core controls are input drive, mix and output. The mix control lets you blend saturated and unprocessed signal, which helps keep transients and detail while adding harmonics.
The Group control links all instances with the same number, so you can adjust several insertions at once. A phase switch is included as well. Internally the plugin uses 64-bit processing and 4x oversampling.
