bx_saturator V2
bx_saturator V2 is a multiband mid/side saturation plugin by Brainworx, available as AU, VST2, VST3, and AAX formats. It is a precision tool for mixing and mastering that lets you add anything from subtle analog warmth to aggressive crunch across four frequency bands with independent gain, drive and mix controls. The plugin uses Brainworx's True Split crossover technology to keep mid and side channels perfectly in phase. It is commonly used on vocal tracks, acoustic guitars, percussion, and on stereo buses to increase perceived loudness and mix cohesion without clipping. The plugin is included in Plugin Alliance's CORE and PRO subscriptions and is also available for individual purchase.
