2B Played Music has announced the release of two new audio effects as part of the QFX One plugin series. The first is QFX Smush, a plugin designed to create harmonic richness and a more aggressive edge to the sound. The second is QFX Heat, a plugin designed to quickly create warm saturation effects. They say:
QFX Smush is a one knob Foldback distortion plugin. Foldback distortion is also known as clipping distortion or overdrive distortion.
Musicians and sound engineers often use foldback distortion intentionally to create a desired sound effect. It is often used when playing electric guitars to add sustain, harmonic richness and a more aggressive edge to the sound, but can also be used with drums, vocal effects and synthesizer leads or bass parts.
QFX Heat is a one knob saturation plugin that combines a soft knee compressor and a harmonic generator. This provides your productions with warm saturation effects.
QFX Heat can be used as a creative overdrive effect to provide your bass, guitar or vocal tracks with pleasing harmonic distortion combined with built-in oversampling. Next to the large rotary knob you will find three pre-set drive settings that allow you to adjust the character of the effect. In the background, QFX Heat does the math for you.
