FabFilter Saturn 2 is a high-quality distortion/saturation plug-in with a huge range of distortion models ranging from subtle to screaming vintage amp modelling, multiple frequency bands, hugely flexible modulation system, and a very modern, well-designed user interface. The Saturn 2 app filters the microphone input and plays it back in real-time. To use Saturn 2 as a plug-in, you need an AUv3-compatible host app like Auria, AUM or Cubasis. Saturn 2 will appear in the list of Audio Unit extensions for effect plug-ins in the host app. Key features: - 28 different distortion styles, from subtle tube saturation to heavy guitar amps and bit crushing - Multiband processing (up to 6 bands), with optional linear phase processing - Adjustable slope for the band crossovers, offering 6, 12, 24 and 48 dB/oct options - Optional HQ modes: Good (8x oversampling) and Superb (32x oversampling) - Per-band drive, mix, feedback, dynamics, tone and level controls - Fully redesigned, easy-to-use interface, with interactive multiband display and a new modulation system - Endless modulation options, with all the 16-step XLFOs, XY controllers/sliders, envelope generators, envelope followers, and MIDI sources you will ever need - Easy drag-and-drop modulation with 50-slot modulation matrix - Live modulation visualization for targets and sources - Curve control in EGs and transient detection in EFs - Carefully designed and curated factory presets, plus the ability to save your own presets - Mid/side processing - External side-chain triggering - Optional MIDI triggering - Undo/redo and A/B comparison "I've found a plugin I can’t live without. There’s not one single type of instrument that can't benefit in some way by having some Saturn on it. [...] Whether you’re looking for a subtle push in the mix or all out audio destruction, Saturn has you covered. Verdict: 9/10!" — Everything Recording "The quality of the algorithms is palpable: the amps, tubes and tape types feel suitably 'real' but more sonically interesting than most, and the movement and 'funk' that can be imposed on them is nothing short of dazzling." — Future Music

    4 mb for $30. Haha
    These plug-in are overpriced, compared to lower priced and free apps, difference in sound quality is barely noticeable if at all. You are paying for the name. $19-$30 for a pretty gui Look at 4pockets Visual Multi-band compressor $8 , bigger app, more functionality, lower price, HD quality. Show more

    I love this plugin, but please read this app developers
    I love how you can oversample to make the saturation more realistic. Especially when you can alter the panning of the distortion to be Mid/Side. When I do that while simulating a guitar amp, it makes the Amp sound more 3D compared to the other guitar amp apps. I love how realistic it is when you turn the dynamic knob up to simulate the noise of an amp. It really does sound like the noise of an amp if you alter the right bandwidths, but please add the option of lowering the noise, or even completely taking the noise out while still keeping the detail and sustain of the dynamics. That would be better than using a noise gate and losing some quality in the sound. Please add this feature, because after discovering that I can mimic the sound of a Fender Dual Showman Amp or a Fender Bassman ‘59 Amp, I don’t use Amplitube anymore. I even mimicked a Marshall amp with the plexiglass amp setting it has in the presets. I’ve been playing the guitar almost everyday these past couple weeks after discovering how good the guitar amp feature can be. You just have to do some eq and add some good IR reverb then you got a solid amp and cabinet simulation with this plugin. It’s so realistic, but please add the option of lowering and completely taking out the noise. That would make this sound like it’s hooked up to a futuristic noise gate pedal that keeps all the amp details in tact. Show more

    Best iOS distortion app. Period.
    Dear FabFilter, I wish I could afford your entire suite of apps (cough *covid bundle sale*)... but as a distortion aficionado, this plugin is the iOS gold standard of dirt, grit, grime, boost, wreckage, and all out audio assault. Makes synths more sinister, 303’s squawky-er, 808s heavier, and drums loops nastier (in the best way). I would say this compares to Elektron Analog Heat, but even more flexible in many respects. Very, very, nice work. ~mike.noface Show more
