U78 Saturator

Röhrensättigungs Plug-in

Das U78 Saturator Plug-in ist ein Sättigungs-Tool, das sich sowohl für Mixing, Mastering als Sounddesgin Anwendungen bestens eignet. Basierend auf den Schaltungen des U73b Kompressors, fügt es dem gewählten Signal harmonische Obertöne hinzu, was für mehr Durchsetzungskraft und das gewisse Etwas im Mix sorgt.

More than Modeling

To start with, Audified removed their award-winning U73b Compressor plug-in's compression function. Filters were added, together with the tone control, and, finally, a strong gain control completed the U78 Saturator. They kept the heart and soul of the machine to deliver the beautifully musical tube sound. The result is a saturator that sounds like no other. The U78 Saturator is even better than the real thing, being blessed with the things that dreams are musically made of. 

U78 Saturator Controls

• Gain - adjusts the input gain of the saturation circuit. (The higher the settings, the more rich the sound that can be achieved.)

• HiPass - sets the cutoff frequency of the high-pass filter, which comes before the saturation circuit in the signal path. (The range is from 30 Hz to 800 Hz - turn the knob to minimum to turn off the HiPass filter.)

• LowPass - sets the cutoff frequency of the lowpass filter, which comes before the saturation circuit in the signal path. (The range is from 1 kHz to 8 kHz - turn the knob to maximum to turn off the LowPass filter.)

• Tone - controls the U78 Saturator's unique tone filter. (Lower settings produce darker sounds with more low frequency content; conversely, higher settings result in brighter, sparkly sounds.)

• Mix - controls the dry and wet signal ratio. (The dry signal is delayed to match the wet signal path latency to prevent phasing issues.)

The Presets

The plug-in is mainly intended to be used on bass, drumsand vocals, but creativity knows no boundaries. The presets for the device are prepared by experienced producers such as Baby Brown (represented in the preset list with BB initials) or Boris Carloff (BC).

"Der U78 Saturator ist ein sehr gelungenes Sättigungs-Tool, das sich sowohl für Mixing-, Mastering- und auch Sounddesign-Anwendungen bestens eignet. Subtiles Signal-Aufhübschen ist ebenso drin wie eine starke Verzerrung, doch das Resultat klingt schlicht hochauflösend und nicht verwaschen."
