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 Thermionic Culture Vulture is a high-gain valve distortion plugin that emulates the British-made boutique hardware unit, offering studio-grade dual-stage valve processing with three distinct valve topologies for coloring or destroying tracks, buses, and mixes. It captures the authentic circuit response of the original hardware while adding parallel Dry/Wet mixing and stereo linking not found on the hardware.
