Softube Drawmer 1976 Three Band Saturator Plug-in  From Softube

There's a reason they call us the Swedish Masters of Distortion. Joining Tape, Harmonics, Overstayer M-A-S, Dirty Tape, Saturation Knob, and more is your new favorite analog mojo box – in the box. Tap into the power of three bands of saturation and width with the utmost analog quality for b>bigger, more impactful mixes.

Drawmer 1976 Three Band Saturator authentically captures the sought-after sound and features of the original Drawmer hardware so you can accurately target frequency areas of percussion, bass, synths, vocals, and full mixes. Skip the broad-brush distortion that single-band saturation can introduce and infuse your sound with warmth, punch, excitement, and 3-D immersive qualities. It's as easy as one-two-three bands.

On saturation & multi-band saturation

Saturation is a sound that evokes the analog era, when recorded signals ran through various pieces of hardware, picking up that hardware's unique character as they traveled. The subtle form distortion that's added lends pleasant-sounding harmonics to the mix.

Multi-band saturators can do things that single-band saturators cannot. With independent bands of saturation, you can pull out the bassline by adding distortion to the top end without ruining the overall balance of the mix. Or sweeten your vocals without making the bottom sound muddy.

Three independent bands

Saturation adds fullness to your music, moving it from chilly and barren to warm and sunny. With three bands, Drawmer 1976 does this with finesse, letting you target vocals, for example, or a bassline. Add to that three bands of stereo width control, and you can truly pull out the depth and add presence to your mix.

Stereo widening

With the three bands of Drawmer 1976, your mix goes from flat to fully 3-D and oh-so-engaging. For example, you can position the high frequencies across a wider soundstage without impacting the low-frequency end. The plug-in includes the original width mode, Analog, plus the added Digital flavor.
