Psycho Circuitry has released a flexible transformer saturation/distortion effect plugin. With 3 controls for shaping the character of the distortion, MicroXFORMer+ focuses on fine-tuning the distortion caused from hysteresis.

Hysteresis Character lets you adjust from “brittle” to “spongey”, Hysteresis Amount controls the level and Contour shapes the clipping onset to preserve more natural transients. 4 transformer types to choose from.

The plugin is available to purchase for the intro price of $19 USD (regular $29 USD). It comes in VST3 and AU formats for Windows and Mac.

The free edition of MicroXFORMer features the same design, the hysteresis character control, and 2 transformer types.
