Saturation and distortion - the secret sauce

Posted by Zofia Wiśniewska (brand_manager) in production-tips

Want your beats to sound fuller and more analog? Saturation is the answer: - Tape saturation on the master bus (subtle!) - Tube saturation on bass/808 for warmth - Distortion on drums for grit - Waveshaping on synths for character Free plugins: Softube Saturation Knob, Camel Crusher, Airwindows Paid favorites: Soundtoys Decapitator, FabFilter Saturn My beatcorelab beats all have subtle saturation on the master. It's the difference between "clean" and "warm." What's your favorite saturation plugin?
