Back in the late 90's, Ensoniq released a product called PARIS that was supposed to compete with protools. It worked just like a console. You couldn't hard clip it. You could jack up the channel gain knob and get a good simulation of a saturating transformer. You could slam a channel way past 0db and it would never clip hard.

The system had some die hard fans, despite the sale of Ensoniq to Emu/Creative, the complete lack of support, and the fact that the software developers outright lied about releases and bugfixes that never came.
