D16 Devastor 2 Distortion – Professional Audio Software & Plugin

Diode clipper emulation

Advanced antialiasing techniques applied no unwanted artifacts appears while warm character of the ouput is preserved.

Instant signal routing

Three filters make the unit multiband and rapidly configurable with selectable signal topologies!

Output limiter

Not only for protection but for bringing sonically pleasant coloration as well.

Under the hood

Devastor 2 is the second generation of D16’s first FX Plugin from the SilverLine Collection series. Devastor is a deceptively simple yet remarkable Multiband Distortion Unit. It is an enhanced version of the distortion unit you can find in Phoscyon but with full control over multiband processing. This elevates its sonic mangling capabilities to an entirely new level! Devastor can be used to distort and enhance a wide range of sounds from full-on acid synth sounds to guitar fuzz or an analog amp with speaker combo. It can even be used with drums to make them sound dirtier and more dynamic! Devastor isn't just good at creating distorted monster sounds: it can also be used subtly to improve the timbre and character of gentler sounds. For example reducing the preamp gain increasing the threshold and selecting a soft-knee for the dynamics will bring out more warmth and detail in a sound without introducing distortion.

Features:

• Dynamics flattener - Dynamics-flattener module which is one-knob controlled input signal compressor to manage loudness before it gets clipped
• Diode Clipper - When designing Devastor we applied special antialiasing techniques to the output signal to make sure it was devoid of aliasing (one of the reasons why digital distortion units can sound so cold and un-musical). As a result Devastor has a
• Filter-Clipper Routing - The plug-in offers nine different connection topologies between its filters and diode-clipper. Filters can process the signal before or after it gets fed into the diode-clipper but some of the configurations even allow the filter
• Devastor's Filters - Devastor's filters are not simply the peaking EQ type which are commonly used in classic multiband distortion units: rather they are like those found in analog synthesizers (low pass high pass band pass and band reject) with adjust
• Output limiter - Optionally activated signal auto-makeup limiter which allows to tame Devastor's master output.
• Ultra low aliasing diode-clipper emulation
• Several UI sizes and HiDPI support for better screen fit
• MIDI Learn for easy controller assignment
