Destruqtor is a companding distortion/saturation/exciter plugin
Unlike traditional distortion, destruqtor applies expanding compression before the waveshaper and an opposite compression after the effect, which preserves and emphasises transients and adds more warmth to your sounds without sacrificing dynamic range.
Even & Odd
Control even and odd harmonics individually. From classic softclipping and warm tube-like saturations to complete destruction of the signal
Low & High Cutoff
Choose what frequencies to apply distortion to while bypassing other frequencies, useful for subtle saturation effects without completely destroying the low end
Dynamic Range
destruqtor is a companding distortion, meaning it preverses dynamic range, unlike what traditional distortion/clipping does
Antialiased
destruqtor has a built-in 8x oversampling and in addition to that it uses ADAA algorithm, reducing aliasing distortion and achieving more harmonic sound
Gain Compensation
destruqtor has a gain compensation mechanism that sets the gain automatically based on the source material (double click the VU meter), and an additional gain parameter for more manual control
Minimal UI
Cute and easy to navigate interface. Dark & light modes. Freely resizable :3
