03In depth

Distortion, Overdrive and Sub-Octave Tones

Big-Sur is a distortion emulation with wide-spectrum fuzz and strong mid-range presence, suited to rhythm playing and heavy leads. It adds a mix control and optional oversampling.

El-Germano is an overdrive based on Germanium transistors, with adjustable bias and voltage controls. It covers tones from subtle rasp to old-school rock and includes level and oversampling options.

Octafish is a sub-octave synthesizer based on an M51134 IC emulation. It can add subtle low-end extension or heavier sub-bass, and it includes an octave solo switch.

Gating and Chorus Modulation

Gate-230 is an optical noise gate with a hold function. Beyond the original threshold control, it adds a range knob to set the maximum reduction and an LED that shows when the gate is closed.

Chorus-65 is a stereo chorus based on a vintage analog bucket brigade chipset. Fuse Audio Labs says its modulation adds shimmer to clean channels. It also includes a level control for gain staging inside the DAW.
