Drivedown Distortion Ii

Description

Saturation plugin

KEY FEATURES

• At the core of Drivedown is a waveshaper built on the arctangent function — a smooth, continuous curve that saturates gradually instead of clipping hard. No filtering stage tames the output, so the full harmonic content stays exposed, giving Drivedown a raw, alive character other saturation plugins soften away.
• Mode sets the overall character of the distortion — from Warmth’s gentle analog-style coloration, through Raw’s grittier presence, to Insane’s dense, aggressive saturation. Gain drives the signal harder into the arctan curve on top of that, increasing harmonic density at any Mode setting.
• Depth engages a filter that controls the low end and high end around the distortion, keeping your lows and highs clean and punchy instead of getting buried in harmonic buildup. Depth comes enabled by default — the moment you insert Drivedown, it’s already shaping your tone.
• A Mix control balances the distorted signal against the dry input, useful for parallel distortion at low settings or fully committed saturation at 100%. Output trim handles gain staging so added loudness never gets mistaken for genuine tonal improvement, and a true bypass keeps A/B comparisons honest.
