PWMDrive Description
The PWMDrive VST plugin was developed to be a saturator / softclipper / waveshaper with offset. I came up with the idea when reading about tube-amplifiers where the distorsion wasnt symmetrical around zero.
I called it PWMDrive since, when maxed out, it can produce sounds similar to a pulse-width-modulated square wave.
The waveshaping function is out = in/(1+in)). Actually its like that on positive x, and symmetrical around zero) Im not sure if this is similar to a "real" tube, but it sounds great, if you have any suggestions on different shape-functions, that have similar (or less) cost, please let me know.
An sweet-sounding oversampling option is provided, mainly meant to be used at mixdown-time, since its rather expensive.
The steps performed are:
- Measure the amplitude
- DC-Offset signal depending on amplitude (lfo-controlled)
- Gain
- SoftClip
- HiPass (to remove dc)
- GainSystem requirementsVST Host
