Three versatile distortion modules for classic and modern distortion – not just for guitar, but for all instruments.

MDMX was inspired by iconic guitar stompboxes, but adds mid-side processing, parallel blending, dynamic response and other enhancements that let you inject power into drums, fashion industrial bass sounds, add a tight edge to vocals or rough up synths. SCREAMER delivers the fat, round sound of overdriven tubes with the classic midrange lift, while OVERDRIVE ranges from sharp and edgy to hardcore dirt, with compression, automatic gain riding and 4-band EQ. FUZZ specialises in sassy sounds augmented by octave-down and octave-up elements, again with dynamics processing and post-distortion 4-band EQ.
