#SSL DUENDE NATIVE V3.6.6 MANUAL#

X-Saturator can be automated via standard DAW Automation data and has A&B Preset ‘slots’ with an A/B switch for easy comparison of two different combinations of settings.

There are Input and Output Meters and Input and Output Level controls. A dedicated wet/dry mix control facilitates parallel processing.

A Headroom button provides an additional 6dB of headroom for creating heavily boosted/distorted signals without digital clipping. The controls are simple: a Harmonics control selects 2nd or 3rd order distortion or a blend of the two, a Drive control sets the drive level, a Depth control adjusts the amplitude of the distortion and a Shape control adjusts whether the distortion has smooth or hard edges. As drive levels are increased so too is the level of distortion until at high drive levels heavy distortion occurs. At low drive settings the distortion is mild and can add gentle warming to help instruments sit nicely in a mix or to add a little extra edge to help instruments cut through a mix. It is an emulation of an analogue circuit that introduces either 2nd order valve style or 3rd order transistor style distortion or a blend of the two. X-Saturator delivers a stunning range of analogue style distortion effects.

There are Input and Output Meters with Input and Output Level controls. X-Phase can be automated via standard DAW Automation data and has A&B Preset ‘slots’ with an A/B switch for easy comparison of two different combinations of settings. The overall plug-in can be used in mono or stereo modes. The Delay controls consist of a delay control which can be set to display and adjust in seconds, milliseconds, samples, metres or feet and a set of buttons for fine tuning. A separate Delay section is applied to the entire signal for broader time alignment. With X-Phase the controls are simple: a Frequency control selects the desired frequency where a phase offset needs to be applied, a Q control sets the slope of the curve of correction to be applied across the signal and a phase invert button enables the phase of the filter to be flipped 180 degrees. This is useful for fixing phase problems with microphones when recording: eg overheads causing phase problems when mixed with close mic’s. Unlike other filter types where the gain of selected frequencies is altered, with an All-pass Filter the gain remains unchanged throughout the signal. It enables the user to apply a phase shift (sometimes called a phase offset) at a specified frequency within a signal.

X-Phase is an All-pass Filter plug-in that offers the user manual control and benchmark audio quality. Here’s some more information from SSL on each of the new Duende Native plug-ins. SSL are also migrating their whole Duende Native plug-in collection to the iLok copy protection system, and have announced a summer release for AAX versions of the entire suite. Two plug-ins (X-Saturator & X-ValveComp) are designed to bring some analogue saturation and distortion emulation to your digital DAW and the third (X-Phase) is designed to deliver high-precision, frequency-specific phase correction. SSL's new trio of Duende Native plug-insSolid State Logic have announce three new Duende Native plug-ins to complement the existing range.
