Analog Distortion

The Analog Distortion be used to add grit to Drums and Percussion, Lead Synths and Guitars.
Description
In Tube mode the Saturator provides a negative feedback loop
that attenuates the level at the Saturator's input according to
the amount of low frequencies at its output. This notably
prevents the bass content "polluting" the saturation. The
Charge parameter allows you to adjust the amount of feedback.
At 0 (full left) the feedback loop is disabled. Increase the
Charge value to strengthen the effect. Higher values additionally
generate an interesting compression-like effect.
Boosts the low frequencies of the input signal. Used together
with the Charge parameter (see above) it provides you with a
powerful tool to produce a richer, fatter sound.
Adjusts the level of the input signal. This directly affects the
amount of tube distortion.
