Saturate is the Spectral Clipper algorithm made popular in the Elevate Mastering Limiter.
Saturate’s two controls belie a sophisticated signal processing engine which allows it to overdrive a signal without effecting the tonal balance no matter how hard you push it.
Add up to 24 dB of overdrive without creating a “tubby” or muffled sound.
Additionally, the SHAPE control allows you to smoothly morph between hard clipping and the mathematically smoothest curve possible.
Use Saturate to overdrive individual tracks or your entire mix.
