SquashIt

Maybe usable for bass and synthesizers, but for guitar this is not really my idea of a convincingly sounding distortion. Even if I changed the three bands, I did not really get any convincing tones, but this experience I also made with some other multiband distortion plugins.

A classic pedal distortion like a RAT or DS-1 still is a different league, although they also are far away from being perfect. But - at least for guitar - they are rather my idea of distortion.
