I've just bought the VariSaturator and have to say it's a very very nice plugin.
I will be using this on the mix buss to give a full rich sound, and on vocals to add that soft distortion which is so pleasing to the ear.
Like all "cool button" plugins, which this could easily be,- you can overdo it, but the spice this adds is pretty special and I'll be using to add interest to audio in many many situations.
The sound is very very hi quality, and it's a bargain at the price.
Dave RichIn electronic music, many sounds are very much "upfront". OTT is what many choose for this purpose.
However, I have found that Varisaturator is much better in place of OTT when it comes to this purpose. Much more controllable and much smoother (even though OTT is multiband compression and Varisaturator is multiband saturation/inflation) In most cases where I would choose OTT, I am using Varisaturator instead for the same purpose and it does the job much better. This small change has improved my mixes for electronic music a lot.
Second thing is soft clipping with OVC-128 on buses to smooth and contain, then followed by high end expansion with Soniformer to rebuild some dynamics and transients is an amazing combination. Smooth, contained and dynamic.
Always finding new relationships and uses with your plugins, thanks!
Jonathan LeeDear Mr. Vaneev,
I am using Your tools for professional CD productions, broadcast an TV, too.
And it is about time to say thank You!
I am enjoying to work with all Your plugins every day.
Nowadays we have many plugins being programmed to be used by non professionals, as long as they look good and have all kind of bullshit-addons to disturb studio computers from working smooth and efficiently.
I appreciate Your way of seeing the things from the point of music professionals and sound engineers in terms of quality, pricing, and handling parameters as it should be technical wise. The optical appearance of the tools are made for an everyday use in industrial production. Thanx a lot.
All the Best
Yours,
