What Kombinat4 does
The plugin offers thirty-eight distortion engines in total. Thirteen new algorithms built for Kombinat4, including Wavefold, Chebyshev, Bitwise and Slew Limit, complete the list.
Two modes are available. In Serial mode the same eight slots become a chain, and each engine processes the full bandwidth.
Key features
- Serial chain. In Serial mode the eight engines are stacked end to end, so each one processes the full-bandwidth signal in sequence.
- Engine Mix. The Engine Mix knob blends the band engines between fully clean and fully driven.
- Output filter. The output section includes a filter with twelve types, among them 2-pole and 4-pole low-pass, high-pass and band-pass.
- Rough Rider compressor. A built-in compressor sits at the output and includes a sidechain HPF and an external sidechain input.
- Feedback path. A global feedback path with attack and decay envelope can produce self-oscillating tones and slow-blooming sustain.
- Level-matched comparison. An optional AGC level-matches A/B comparisons across heavy distortion settings.
Who it is for
Mix engineers and sound designers who want per-band distortion control and a serial chain of engines in one plugin.
