Put the fuzz and widening on a bass to lift a chorus...booooom!!!
Well done guys. | Thanks! Yes, the "effects" are intended to work well independently to make it faster & easier to tweak. Myself, I often use just one or two of them at a time. Quote:

So far so good after that but I am wary to save first before using at the moment | Ouch, that's no good. Glad you're up and running, but we'll definitely have a closer look at running in Cubase to see if there's something weird going on. Thanks for reporting!

speaking about future projects ... I love Faturator and use it everyday. So today I looked up if you guys did any other plugins to check out and I discovered kHsONE. I really like the sound and workflow of the plugin but I need more functionality (OSC routing possibilities, waaay faster LFOs and more, Stepsequencer? More FX, more filter types, independent noise generator ... etc). Soooooo .... is there a kHsTWO in the making I can look forward to?

:-) | I'd lie if I said "no", but I can't really give any details. If there are things you're missing in ONE (like the things you mentioned), feel free to mail them to "support@kilohearts.com" and we'll see what we can do. If they're small, we might put them in a later ONE upgrade. If they're bigger, we'll put them in... another list. |

If you're not kidding, why does the number matter?

Therefore we have (along with some other tricks I won't divulge here  ) 2x upsampling, which provides a nice sound.

Going to give it a try.

The widening effect is worth the 20 bucks. Purchased!  Also, it provides a great way to add harmonics to a simple sine wave bass. I'm exploring it's possibilities on a track right now.

Otherwise, great plug !

After seeing "dynamics preserving distortion tool" I was hooked... Bought it after demoing for about 5 minutes. Loving how low it is on CPU, and the widening is great. Awesome job kiloHearts!

For those of you that have had issues, there is a new beta version available which may fix your problems. Contact us at support@kilohearts.com and we'll set you up!

Are there any plans for a build which includes a mono version of Faturator?

-SD | Indeed there is! Our next update will hopefully include mono support, but with "stereo turbo" obviously disabled.
Just to be sure, is there any VST hosts where mono support makes sense? So far we've only done it for the AU (because of Logic).

I personally would use a cabinet simulator or filter to soften that up post faturator. If use the fuzz circuit at all, because it is pretty program dependent. I like the Drive slider more. In general I don't like to add distortion to an already recorded distorted guitar in most cases anyway. It usually sounds gritty to me.

With the internal resampling, I assume there's latency as well?

This latency is reported to the DAW so no manual adjustments need to be done if the DAW supports delay compensation, which pretty much all DAWs do.
Note that there is a bug in 1.000 causing Logic to not properly compensate, but the latest beta version available freely on our site contains a fix for this.
Hope this answers your question!
