Where to get itIncluded with Logic Pro. It is part of that DAW, not a separate download.apple.com
Clip Distortion is a nonlinear distortion effect that produces unpredictable harmonic spectra, capable of simulating warm, overdriven tube sounds and heavy distortions. It features an unusual combination of serially connected filters—a highpass filter before distortion and lowpass filters after—that create characteristic gaps in the frequency spectrum. The effect combines the distorted signal with the original before final filtering, making it distinctive for coloring tracks with harmonic complexity.
