Shapers: Saturation

Default installation path: .../-=Flexor=-/Shapers/Saturation/


"This section has various overdrive and saturation modules. The overdrive modules are great for

guitar effects, drums, and distorted synths. The saturation effects are great for giving a warm

presence to tracks or even whole mixes."  (Flexor Manual)

dspLoad 8.60/5.30/5.40

"This shaper gently saturates the incoming signal,

boosting the perceived volume and fattening the overall

presence of tone. This effect makes it ideal to make a

track stick out in the mix without the use of EQ or

compression." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:16

dspLoad 8.70/5.40/5.40

"a shaper that creates mild to aggressive saturation effects. It has a linear response at low input levels, and at higher levels of input it soft-clips much like germanium based transistors tend to do. This module produces a rich, warm and lush overdrive effect. Higher values of Drive yield a more drastic “nearsquare” saturation."

dspLoad 27.00/23.70/23.70

"This shaper creates a mild tube-like overdrive effect. At lower values, a soft and rounded saturation occurs. Higher values will create deeper and fatter saturation, producing that rich and musical presence often associated with tube-based overdrive effects." (Flexor Manual)  MaxPoly16

dspLoad 10.70/7.40/7.40

"Thick Drive is a shaper that creates mild to aggressive

saturation effects. At lower values, an incoming triangleshaped signal will be rounded off at its edges, creating a warm and pleasant saturation effect. This module produces a thick, warm and lush overdrive effect. Higher values of Drive yield a more drastic “near-square”

saturation." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:15

dspLoad 8.70/5.40/5.40

"a shaper that creates aggressive overdrive effects. The saturation that occurs on the positive axis is asymmetric while the negative axis hard-clips. This module produces a hard, harsh and edgy overdrive effect. Higher values of Drive yield a more drastic “near-square” saturation." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:16

dspLoad 24.40/21.20/21.30

"Ripple Drive is a shaper that creates mild to aggressive

saturation effects. It is designed to imitate low sample-rate digital devices and the ripple effect they create when being overdriven. You can control the amount of overdrive as well as the amount of ripple effect. This module produces a lowfi digital sounding overdrive effect. Higher values of Drive yield a more drastic “near-square” saturation." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:4

dspLoad 9.00/5.70/5.80

"This shaper gently saturates the incoming signal, boosting the perceived volume, and enhancing the overall presence of the tone, without clipping it. Its effect is mild and suitable for gentle tasks such as adding presence to vocals, solo instruments and drums, and can even be used for mastering tasks" (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:16

dspLoad 24.20/21.00/21.00

"This shaper creates mild to aggressive saturation effects. At lower values, an incoming triangle-shaped signal will be rounded off at its edges, creating a distinctive saturation of a hot recorded analogue tape machine. Higher values will create a far more drastic “near-square” saturation, producing a rich, warm and lush overdrive effect." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:15

dspLoad 15.10/11.90/11.80

"This shaper clips sound according to its ballistic

behaviour (speed and direction of movement). This makes it ideal for guitars as it interacts with the signal musically. It is excellent for connecting to real guitar amplifiers. Rolling-off some high frequencies with a Low-Pass filter or EQ after this module can simulate a guitar speaker cabinet, obtaining a great direct-to-disk guitar solution. Obviously, this shaper also works well in all situations where a goodsounding distortion effect is required." (Flexor Manual)  Max poly:16

*this module is by default installed in two folders:

../shapers/distortion and ../shapers/saturation*

dspLoad 14.40/11.20/11.20

"Hexa-Drive is a shaper that creates mild to aggressive

saturation effects. It uses linear interpolation to create

polygon-like saturation, and it is possible to select the

number of sides for the polygon. This module produces a

warm yet digital sounding overdrive effect. Higher values of Drive yield a more drastic “nearsquare”

saturation." (Flexor Manual)       Max poly:9

dspLoad 27.00/23.70/23.70

"This shaper gently saturates the incoming signal, boosting the perceived volume and warming up the tone without clipping it. It’s effect is ideal for adding fatness and roundness to incoming signals such as vocals, drums and instruments." (Flexor Manual)  MaxPoly16
