Where to get itAvailable from Soundtoyssoundtoys.com
Little Radiator is a tube saturation plugin modeled after the Altec 1566A amplifier, a vintage three-stage mic preamp from the early 1960s. It adds warmth and harmonic distortion to digital productions through faithful recreation of the original hardware's colored, gritty saturation character. The plugin includes a parallel mix control and selectable bias modes to tailor the saturation behavior.
