Description
IVGI is a versatile saturation and distortion VST plugin developed by Klanghelm.
It provides both subtle and intense saturation effects, making it suitable for various applications, from mastering to individual track processing.
The plugin is a simplified version of Klanghelm's SDRR saturation plugin, featuring the same high-quality analog saturation algorithms but with easier controls.
IVGI responds dynamically to the input signal, making the saturation effect responsive and musical.
It includes features such as modelled crosstalk behavior for stereo tracks and controlled randomness to emulate the internal drift and variance of analog equipment.
The plugin's interface is user-friendly, with intuitive controls that allow producers to easily shape the character and transparency of the saturation.
Tips
- Use the Drive knob to add subtle warmth or intense distortion depending on the needs of your track.
- Adjust the Asym Mix control to achieve a more transparent or compressed sound.
- Utilize the X-Talk control to add a realistic stereo crosstalk effect, enhancing the depth of your mix.
- Set the Trim control to ensure your input signal hits around 0 dBVU for optimal performance.
- Experiment with the Response control to focus the saturation on different frequency ranges, such as adding warmth to the low end or brightness to the high end.
- Monitor the VU meter to keep track of your input and output levels, ensuring a balanced mix.
- Apply IVGI on the master bus for subtle saturation that glues the mix together, or on individual tracks for more pronounced effects.
