Wave Arts Delivers True Analog Sound In The Digital Domain

November 05, 2009

Tube Saturator represents Wave Arts' first step into the world of accurate real-time analog modeling. Unlike tube simulators which use radically simplified models, Tube Saturator uses state of the art circuit simulator technology to capture every nuance of an analog system.

The actual schematic (consisting of resistors, capacitors, tubes, and so on) is precisely specified within the simulator and completely defines the signal processing—no approximations or short cuts. Technically, the plug-in is solving a set of mathematical equations, in real-time, to capture the non-linear and complex interactions of all the components in the system. To put it more simply—it sounds exactly like the analog circuit. One can use Tube Saturator to add a bit of analog warmth to recordings, or increase the drive for some tube distortion. It can be used as a saturating peak limiter too. This new technology is CPU intensive, but brings an unprecedented new level of analog realism.

Tube Saturator is available immediately for $149.95 and runs as a plug-in within any Mac or Windows host application that supports VST, Audio Unit, MAS, DX and RTAS plug-ins.
