Saturation
Decapitator
Soundtoys
Thicken any track with five studio-grade saturation models—from subtle warmth to aggressive distortion—all shaped by analog circuitry that responds dynamically like the real hardware.
The Virtual Preamp Collection is a saturation plugin that brings two classic analog microphone preamplifiers—the FG-73 and FG-76—into your DAW using state-of-the-art analog modeling technology. It recreates the full circuit behavior of each preamp, from subtle coloration to full saturation and distortion, and can add vintage preamp tone to any track, mix, or source material.
Add it to your Plugin Library and it stops being a name in a folder — search it by sound, keep notes, and remember why you bought it.
