i`m sorry ...i try to be as fair as i can ... but a tube is something else ... believe me, i know.
this is more a simple linear distotion to me.
when do the developers at voxengo learn, that the distortion of a tube doesn`t necessecerally have to be audible ? it`s the subtle way of compressing with nomlinear distortion that makes a tube a tube ...
then the sound gets punchier and louder in average, without the peaklevel being affected.
otherwise vocals f.e. would be allways audible distorted
when sent through a tube micro or tube amp.
its the wrong name for that plugin.
it should be labeled with "gutar amp-like overdrive"
or something like that. anyhow, this plugin doesn`t make your sound any louder or punchier without audible unwanted sideeffects.its free though, so go give it a try and hear by yourself. maybe you find it useful. me not at all.imo you simply cannot put it on the summarized mix, like they say at voxengo. well ... you can do it, but it only souds good when the plugin is set to 0 amounts.
sorry again, but this has to be said.
i don`t mean no harm.
