Carbonated Audio has announced the release of an analog saturation plugin with 5 DSP flavors and a one-knob “Carbonated” mode that adds harmonic fizz with a single dial.
One knob. Five DSP flavors. Endless character. The analog saturation plugin built for producers who hear the difference.
Each flavor in Carbonator is a carefully engineered DSP chain, while the Fizz knob morphs all parameters simultaneously from subtle to savage.
- Cola: Console-style saturation that glues your mix with even harmonics, subtle compression, and the warmth of classic analog hardware.
- Cherry: Tube-style distortion with odd harmonics and aggressive clipping. From subtle grit to full-on fuzz, Cherry delivers raw energy.
- Grape: Digital destruction with bit reduction and sample rate decimation. Grape crushes your signal into crunchy, retro lo-fi textures.
- Lemon-Lime: Harmonic exciter that adds sparkle and air without harshness. Lemon-Lime enhances presence and clarity with musical high-frequency saturation.
- Orange Cream: Resonant lowpass filter with warm drive. Orange Cream sweeps from open and clean to thick, squelchy filter tones with musical resonance.
Priced $20 USD, Carbonator is available in VST3, AU and AAX formats for macOS and Windows. A free trial version can be download to try the plugin.
