This time we're looking at the OUTPUT saturation available.
Settings are RMS Compression, HARD knee.
There are gaps of 1 bar between each recording.
The first recording has 4 bars of DRY, then a gradual increase of OUTPUT Saturation until just before it starts breaking up into distortion completely.
The second and third recordings contain 4 bars of DRY, followed by 4 bars of compressed signal, followed by 4 bars of the same settings with OUTPUT saturation engaged.
The fourth recording demonstrates the Signal to Noise ratio when VERY heavy compression applied, along with high IN and OUT saturation settings. This was done to emphasize that a lot of the background noise/ hiss you can hear on this loop at high compression/ saturation settings is actually present in the loop itself, and not caused by the module itself. You can hear any background noise generated by the module (and my system) directly after the end of the last recording - I left it recording for a short while to demonstrate.
A stunner—dense, richly textured electronic music with songs that crackle like mysterious outer space transmissions. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 19, 2023
