18.16 Saturator
The Saturator Effect.
Saturator is a distortion effect that can add that missing dirt, punch or warmth to your sound.
Incoming signals are clipped to the Drive control's setting in dB. Signal clipping has several
modes: Clip, Soft, Medium, Hard and Sine. In Clip mode, the signal is clipped completely
and immediately. Soft, Medium and Hard modes soften signal clipping to varying degrees.
Sine mode can be used for special effects.
The meter in the display will show how much Saturator is inuencing a signal.
Activating the Color button enables two lters. The rst of these, controlled with the Base
control, dictates how much the effect will be reduced or increased for very low frequencies.
The second lter, essentially an equalizer, is used for controlling higher frequencies. It is
shaped with the Freq (cutoff frequency), Width and Depth controls.
The Output control reduces or increases the level at the device output. The signal at the
device input can be amplied using the Drive control.
The Dry/Wet control adjusts the balance between the processed and dry signals. Set it to
full wet if using the Saturator in a return channel.
