Klevgränd has announced the release of FreeAMP, a freeware analog saturation effect in VST, AU, and AAX plugin formats for digital audio workstations on PC and Mac.

FreeAMP is a simplified edition of Klevgränd’s recently released REAMP audio gear modeling plugin (currently on sale for $35.99). The freeware version is based on a selection of saturation algorithms which were taken from the full product. These have been combined together in order to provide a unique mixture of tape and tube saturation which will blend well with a wide variety of audio sources.

1. HoRNet Tape is a software simulation of the effect that magnetic tape apply to the signal recorded on it. Tape was the recording medium of choice before digital took its place in the early 90s and has s distinct effect that helped to define the sound of the music of the 60s, 70s, and 80s.

3. FerricTDS - Tape Dynamics Simulator was the Winner of the KVR Developer Challenge 2009. Inspired by the smooth dynamic shaping capabilities of some high-end reel-to-reel tape recorders, FerricTDS - Tape Dynamics Simulator simulates three of the most distinctive and much appreciated sonic effects generated by these devices: Dynamics: gently shaping the overall dynamic response.
4. May 28, 2019  This is a Windows only VST with a Routable Modular Signal Chain, HP & LP Mix Filters, alongside your classic 4 Band Parametric EQ and a versatile Mix Bus Compressor. Onboard Saturation, Stereo, Phase, Pan & Limiter controls to boot. The Free version has oversampling, HP & LP Filters disabled ($9.99 otherwise).

Unlike its more advanced cousin REAMP, the freely downloadable FreeAMP plugin doesn’t allow the user to customize the saturation tone and character. Instead, Klevgränd has built a streamlined user interface which only consists of three control parameters. The Drive knob controls the amount of saturation applied to the signal and the Mix knob is used to adjust the relative levels of the dry and processed audio. Finally, the Output control is used to define the output volume of the two signals combined.

Thanks to its simple control layout, FreeAMP is perfect for handling quick saturation tasks and is even capable of parallel processing which works particularly well on drums and other types of percussive audio material. The whole package reminds us quite a bit of the excellent Saturation Knob plugin by Softube which is another great choice for an easy to use saturation tool.

Best Free Saturation Vst

As for FreeAMP sound, it does indeed resemble the type of complex analog saturation you’d expect to hear coming from a combination of tape and tube gear. It’s not overly harsh and it truly shines when used for subtle processing of the audio signal on the input. Of course, you can always max out the Drive parameter for some in-your-face distortion but I personally prefer using plugins such as this one sporadically across the entire mix.
