DaTube is a saturation plugin that emulates the characteristic warm, lush sound of a tube amplifier. It uses a straightforward Mix, Drive, and Output control structure to blend dry and wet signals while controlling pre-gain and distortion character. DaTube is designed to add the tonal warmth and harmonic richness of tube saturation to individual tracks or the mix bus.
