Density3

TL;DW: Density3 refines Density to keep up with recent developments.

This secret weapon’s seen a little fine-tuning.

Density’s one of my first plugins. Its power is in using sin() based overdrive combined with a very gentle highpass, one that can dial back the amount of saturation on heavy basses… while allowing it through anyhow using the dry/wet control. It’s an incredible dirt-shaper for refined work.

But what if it used the technique from PurestSaturation? That’s Density3: finally an upgrade.

But there’s more! Turns out the negative Density range enjoys a change too: it blended better with a phase-flip. I could have known it needed one, except nobody constructs inverse saturations like this, as it doesn’t seem like a useful sound. Until you take advantage of its gatey qualities to dial in tone, between -1 and 0, that keeps the nature of the tone the same but dries up its quieter regions, as subtly as you’d like.

This is out because another dev I know was looking into Density2, and wanting to shoot it out against his own algorithms. I said, just so you know, there’s a Density3 and it’s on the github repository, it’s just not out yet.

Now it is :)
