HoRNet Plugins has introduced a new version of its audio plugin designed to simulate the classic sound of a guitar distortion pedal.

Suitable for a wide range of applications beyond guitar distortion, HDS1 MK2 provides useful features for professional audio production.

The HoRNet HDS1 MK2 offers enhanced analog emulation to closely mimic the warmth of the original pedal, alongside various modulations including the “Ultra,” “Seeing Eye,” and “Less Shrill” settings to adjust the distortion effect. The plugin also includes adjustable effect levels, tone control from dark to bright, and a Dry/Wet knob for blending processed and original signals. For refined tuning, it features a VU meter and supports up to 16x oversampling. The interface is resizable, ensuring it fits comfortably within different production setups.

Available for Windows and Mac (VST3, AU and AAX), HDS1 MK2 is priced 8.99 EUR.

Owners of the original HDS1 can upgrade to the MK2 version for just 2.99 EUR, while customers who have purchased the Complete Bundle qualify for a 40% discount on a purchase of HDS1 MK2.
