Distortion plugins

any new ones on the go?

Ive got...

Kombinat - fairly vicious that one
Saturn - really good saturator, some nice distortion too
SDRR - find this one fairly subtle, sometimes nice on kicks for that midrangey boom
Ohmicide - cant get on with that fiddly gui, great sound tho (wish theyd make a new one with better gui)

any other good ones? Saturn gets most usage but wouldnt mind a different flavour...
I must go back and give Fxpansion Maul another try out, really like their plugs

SoundToys Decapitator!!! Devil-loc is pretty cool, too.

FXpansion Maul is a nice multi-band alternative to Ohmicide. with a much better interface.

Camel Phat forever!

That plug turned my dreams into reality!

Well, that's why the internet invented torrents

...unless you have an existing Camel Audio account. Apparently, there is some confirmation that they will be allowing license transfers for people who had an account before they closed shop. No idea how long they'll be granting them for, though.

I was actually really considering Camel Phat as I love the "Phat" button in Alchemy, I will have to look into that because it would be a shame if I couldn't get a hold of it through legal means.

What about stomp boxes?

If only they made Reason's Scream 4 a VST. I still haven't found anything quite like it.

I've heard tape saturators almost as good as this machine, but then turn the knob 9 more times and my head just explodes.

edit: i said tubes also, but the screams tubes are a little aggressive.

yep, that was a good one

izotope's Trash is decent too.

$249, quite pricey, it would want to be doing something outstanding for me to shell out

Yeah you're right, I don't use it either for the same reason. But I know of a few guys that swear by it and it does have it's own character as far as distortion plugs go.

Logic's clip distortion is also another one that really has no equivalent, but yeah you need to be a Logic user.

Im demoing PSP Vintage Warmer 2 at the moment, might buy it, its heavy but it has a mix knob so you can blend it in - does something nice to the drum bus

Yeah it's really easy to over do it with that thing, but just a little drive on that alone can work wonders without touching anything else

thanks i will try and demo some of these, the melda ones seem reasonably priced

Just snagged Camel Phat for $40 on KVR

If you have Bitwig I really like the sound of the built in Distortion plugin for the overdrive, put the Reaktor ensemble I have been using for that to shame.

MElda complete bundle is pretty much the best bang for buck out there. They add new plugins all the time and you don't have to pay. You would be surprised how often companies sell the complete bundle then kinda fuck you over by selling the new bundle with new plugins who,ex you have to pay fir the new ones.
