TWO WAYS TO DIG IN

Keep your power, distort your texture.

01 / AM

AM

continuously modulates a signal’s level at the speed of the second input, generating clean, targeted sideband distortion that mirrors the bass wave’s curve. This creates a focused, pure modulation distortion without spraying harsh upper-harmonic buzz across the spectrum.

02 / CLIP

Clip

distorts by smashing the combined signals into a hard ceiling and abruptly shearing off the peaks at audio rate. This produces an aggressive, squared-off distortion with crunchy edge artifacts and extra grit.

01 / SOURCE

Select your second input:
Sidechain. Sample. Noise.

02 / SHAPE

Filter both signals.
Set your ceiling & tension.

03 / BLEND

Mix your two levels.
For a clean body & driven texture.
