Yes. Didn’t realise you guys were only talking about which direction it’s in as it’s 1 knob, very easy to learn, and not the fact it is the blend knob. So yeah, the more you turn it up it’s more ‘wet’, so more ‘intensity’.

I'm in. What is the copy protection?

Hej, we have a manual which is explaining all controls. Check it out to learn more:

we have a limited Demo version to start with.

The purchased version does not come with any protection or limitations.

But we ask our customers to be kind and not to spread it throughout the entire internet.

best regards

Bought. And I won't spread it anywhere-

Without having any context/bias for this company I find this tool a one trick pony and something I closely replicate with Kelvin. Plus the GUI is horrendous. I need more to even justify the intro price.

This is a great plug, very impressive.
Actually Plugin Dr. reveals the intensity knob to be more of a shelf EQ alternating between low and high

Plugin Dr. is wrong.

As I said before ‘Intensity’ is wet/dry.
Yes I did read your post. It's very unusual for a Dry/Wet mix knob to be labelled Intensity. To me Intensity sounds like a transient peak control for the saturation.

Does it really matter what they've labelled it?... you turn it up you get more 'effect' so more 'intensity'.

In many use-cases, yes.

TL;DR Parameter labels are supposed let the user know, within the context of the plugin, what the parameter function is. In this case of this plugin, the knobs are labeled in a very functional utilitarian way. For many users knowing specifically what a tools does is useful in terms of gaining the most control of it's effect. There are some plugins with vague or creative labels to match the nature of the plugins - these usually are ok if left that way because it's the intended nature of the plugin. That isn't the case here so it would be nice to know what the controls actually do, for some users, it's a reasonable expectation.

There's 3 knobs, it's not hard to learn.

There are users that want to specifcally know what a parameter does for better control of the tool. It's reasonable to want to know this for those users. If you do not, great, easier for you.

Here's a friendly advice for the dev :

With the constant flow of releases, people don't want to "learn". we don't have time (as by the time one "learn" - 5 new plugins might get released).

If it's simple make it as simple to understand - as it looks.

FWIW, I thought - upon first using it - that "Intensity" was another layer of the saturation process (and the lightning propels one to think so... never EVER have I seen this sort of visual que that represents wet/dry)
