you could try my FuncShaper with the 'ChebychevPolynomials' preset. with this preset, the a,b,c,d paramters control the amplitudes of 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th harmonic respectively. if you use only 2nd and 3rd order, 2x oversampling should be enough to stay clear from aliasing.SWAN808 wrote:I know its not popular around here but I have got some good use from the Fielding DSP Reviver saturation plugin for Mac mainly due to its ability to gently add 2nd and 3rd harmonic satuartion in separate amounts alias free. I use the 3rd harmonic mostly on drums to give punch and its really useful. Im looking to find a PC version however most seem to lump 2nd and 3rd harmonics together into one process - and this is less good IMO as the 2nd harmonic doesnt impart so much punch and seems to make to signal warmer in a mushy way....any PC VST alternatives?
edit: small correction: 'a' controls the linear part - so b and c would then be 2nd and 3rd harmonic.
