URS Announces Saturation Plug-in Version 2.0 RTAS AU VST

October 03, 2008

URS Saturation plug-in v2.0 includes nine vintage analog algorithms

The six digitally recreated Pre Amplifiers add different and distinct vintage even and odd ordered harmonics, input stage saturation and soft clipping. The six Mic Pre Amplifier Saturation algorithms include:

  • Class A Tube Mic Pre Amplifier - Motorcity
  • Class A Tube Mic Pre Amplifier - German
  • Class A Discrete Pre Amplifier - British
  • Class A Discrete JFet Mic Pre Amplifier - Modern
  • Class A Tube Mic Pre Amplifier - 1951
  • Class A Tube Mic Pre Amplifier - Tape Deck

The Two Mono Tape Head algorithms add Analog Tape saturation. This non-linear saturation produces a smoothing effect on high frequency transients. The two Mono Tape Head Saturation algorithms include:

  • 15ips Tape Saturation
  • 30ips Tape Saturation

The Transformer Core Saturation algorithm adds non linear transformer core saturation as found on vintage consoles, tape machines and outboard gear. Transformer American Try the different URS Saturation algorithms on Drums, Guitars, Bass, Keyboards, Brass, Vocals and on Drum and Mix busses. Hear the added warmth!

URS Saturation Plug-in Features:

Adjustable Input Control
The URS Saturation plug-in features an adjustable input control to adjust the level into the Saturation's drive amplifier.

Saturation Drive Control
Allows you to control the desired amount of added harmonics, saturation and soft clipping from 0-100%

Mix Blend Control
Allows you to blend the right amount of Saturation with your source material. No need to use an additional parallel track or Aux send to get blend effects. At the 100 % Wet setting the Mix Blend Control is disabled.

Adjustable Output Control
The URS Saturation plug-in features an adjustable output control after the Mix Blend control to balance the final effect with your insert chain.

Plasma Style VU Metering
Allows you to view both the input and output signal. The phenomena of added harmonics, soft clipping and saturation is that it sounds louder even when the meters do not indicate changes in level.

High Res 64 bit Floating point "Double Precision" processing
The URS Saturation plug-in Hi Resolution 64-bit floating point "Double Precision" processing for increased clarity and headroom. Why mention this clarity for a plug-in that reduces saturation? Because, we designed the URS Saturation plug-in to reproduce Analog style saturation not Digital!

A fully functional 10 day demo is available - iLok required.
