Warmth harmonics colour and dynamics Offering a staggering 28 modes of distortion spanning everything from vintage guitar amplifiers tube tape and transformer emulations to unique creative FXs Saturn 2 gives you the tools to sculpt and shape any sound source. Each distortion holds a distinctive character and can add subtle warmth and transparency for mastering purposes in a full mix or send your instruments through searing distortion for aggressive and punchy tones. A newly implemented category within Saturn 2 is the Transformer distortions with Subtle Gentle and Warm settings you can span the full range of overdrives to work on a full mix or group to individual instruments. Not limited to simply adding distortion and saturation to your signal FabFilter Saturn 2 has much more functionality than what meets the eye. A single dial dynamics knob can be individually assigned to each frequency band you create adds a layer of compression/limiting to each band. This makes the ideal solution for mixing engineers to tame aggressive peaks caused by large amounts of distortion on a signal to keep the level consistent. Bring your sounds to life Saturn 2 is truly a desert-island plug-in performing the job of many other processors in a single unit all the while delivering the signature sound quality youve come to expect from FabFilter. Inside the plug-in you are presented with the opportunity to explore modulation by applying XLFOs envelope followers and generators XY controllers and MIDI sources to the frequency dynamic distortion level and crossovers of your sound design. This can create some very interesting and unique sounds that will help elevate your sound to the next level. Using an extremely simple drag and drop interface there is an almost limitless number of modulation possibilities. Activate an envelope follower and select your input source from the normal input sidechain input or by one of the activated bands within your interface meaning the signal driving the envelope follower comes after the crossover filters. Here you can experiment with activating your envelope follower on only the low frequencies to create an extra thick punch to your kick drums or bass guitars. A new transient mode allows you to trigger your modulation on the transient detection of the source to quickly and easily add positive or negative modulation to shape and sculpt the impact and punch of your selected band. Theres simply no limit to how you can generate sound design within Saturn 2 and the sleek newly designed modulation interface will make it simple and easy to understand and implement in your mixes.
