The Effector DS3603 Distortion by Kuassa is an entry-level distortion effect plugin with five effect types and the most important setting parameters. The effect is an inexpensive software alternative to the effect pedal, especially for guitarists and keyboard players, but also for home producers in general who want to add more color, weight and volume to vocal recordings, drums or other instruments through overtones and distortion. Thanks to the Gain and Tone control parameters, you retain basic and obvious control over the final effect despite the five presets.
Like most distortions, distortion in the DS3603 Effector is achieved by clipping, rather than by overdriving a signal until the upper and lower frequencies are 'cut off'. With further clever algorithms this Kuassa plugin adds more overtones and emphasizes the powerful depths of the sound with further filters. The five selectable distortion types correspond to the most typical fields of application:
Control over the gain, tone and volume parameters can fundamentally change these five types of distortion to create a versatile color palette without confusing you with confusing bonus features. The A/B Compare feature also makes it easy to compare two effects until the sound tickles the synapses in the listening center just right. The Dry Wet control lets you easily control the amount of distortion in the source signal, and with up to 8x oversampling, you can set the exact 'brush strength' of your effect. The Effektor DS3603 Distortion offers a powerful tool for sound distortion, where a clear interface means more control.
