Voxengo VariSaturator VST - аудио эффект plug-in. Применяется для насыщенного воздействия на аудиоматериал. Может быть использована как для увеличения громкости аудио треков без увеличения их пиковых уровней и придать тонкую гармоническую окраску, что делает звуковые дорожки более заметным и привлекательным.
VariSaturator is an audio effect plug-in designed to apply saturation effects over audio material. VariSaturator can be used both to boost the loudness of the audio tracks without increasing their peak levels proportionally, and to apply subtle harmonic coloration that makes tracks sound more pronounced and polished.
VariSaturator features two saturation modules which are applied in sequence, in two-band mode each. The valve saturation module applies asymmetric valve processing that closely resembles sound of valve amplifier cascade, and being a digital emulation, it applies its best sonic features without side artifacts like noise, strong phase shift and high frequency roll-off. Another saturation module VariSaturator features is a digital ”waveshaping” saturator with feedback topology. This module applies smooth two-band saturation which can amplify signal level and apply desirable harmonic coloration.
VariSaturator can be used in a variety of audio processing cases: you may apply it with good results over drum, bass and vocal tracks, over sub-mixes and of course over complete mixes. Since VariSaturator does not provide a brick-wall limiting performance, when applied over full mixes, it is best used for the final loudness boost inserted before the finishing brick-wall limiter.
Note, though, that since VariSaturator applies distortion, it may damage original sonic qualities of the audio material if used incautiously. For initial evaluation of VariSaturator’s sonic performance you can use the factory presets VariSaturator comes with.

Compatibility This plug-in can be loaded into any audio host application that conforms to the VST or AudioUnit plug-in specification.
This plug-in is compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista (32- and 64-bit) and Mac OS X 10.4.11 and above (Intel and PowerPC) computers (2 GHz dual-core or faster processor with at least 1 GB of system RAM recommended). A separate binary distribution file is available for each target computer platform for each plug-in format.
What's New Version 1.2, 30-mar-2008: The "Dry mix" parameter implemented. Output routing arrangement changed - it is now possible to route the same internal channel to several outputs. "Loud noise" issue happening in Reaper fixed. A possible cause of a rare occasional crash resolved. Cubase/Nuendo freeze after their track level meter dragging fixed. Parameter automation freezing in Logic/Mac OS X fixed. "Mouse wheel sensitivity" global setting renamed to "mouse wheel precision".
