The Devastor 2 is a distortion plugin from D16 Group with a simple and comprehensive user interface and one of the best diode clippers on the market. It represents an improved and more detailed adjustable version of the distortion, which has also been integrated into D16's Phoscyon. It is used in electronic music to create grainy or warm distortions from synths, but guitar fuzz effects and even overdriven drums sound unique with the Devastor. An effect for electronic musicians, guitarists and drummers with a soft spot for fine tuning and high sound quality.
The plugin consists of four essential blocks:
The plugin offers nine different connection topologies for switching filters and diode clippers. If desired, the filters can process the signal either before feeding it into the diode clippers or after. Some configurations also allow the filters to be applied at the same time as the clipper, which greatly expands the possible sound spectrum.
The filters of the Devastor 2 are fundamentally different from those used in most classic multiband distortions. They are more similar to those in analog synthesizers (low pass, high pass, bandpass and band stop filtering). The filters have adjustable resonance and cutoff parameters. This allows the type and intensity of distortion to be precisely determined.
In addition to distortion sounds for synthesizers, guitars and drums, the Devastor 2 is also ideal for making a sound or mix fuller or smoother. This allows dynamic changes to the preamp parameters to create a warmer and more pleasant sound from any instrument. The special warmth and sonority of the Devastor is based on improved anti-aliasing technology and high-quality diode clipper algorithms.
