MiniFET is the little brother to the + version. But it still has plenty to offer: The same 3 action modes, harmonics multipliers and saturation system, oversampling, a switchable transformer output stage. But it only has 1 harmonics mode (natural) and 1 transformer type (modern). It also does not include: external sidechain, variable sidechain filter, auto-release, dual mono channel mode. But it’s the same flexible FET compressor in every other way!

Supports Windows 10/11(x64) & MacOS BigSur+ (**Notarization Soon!** Sorry for the hold up!)

Changelog
1.0.3 – 2023.12.30

zam-plugins is a collection of LV2/LADSPA/VST/JACK audio plugins for sound processing developed in-house at ZamAudio. The default settings and almost every slider is calibrated to standard ranges. A big thankyou to falktx for writing Distrho Plugin Framework. It has enabled me to make these GUIs for zam-plugins quickly and neatly. Also thanks to mira, nphilipp, adi, edogawa and Haskellfant who helped package the software for different distros!

Plugins:

ZaMaximX2:

One of the best plugins in the series, this acts as a brickwall limiter for mastering in its default state, but can also be tweaked to raise the average level as a stereo maximizer without ever clipping. Sounds musical even with rough treatment. (Based on DSP found in a DAFX’02 paper).

ZamAutoSat:

An automatic saturation plugin, has been known to provide smooth levelling to live mic channels.
You can apply this plugin generously without affecting the tone.

ZamComp:

A powerful mono compressor strip. Adds real beef to a kick or snare drum with the right settings.

ZamCompX2:

Stereo version of ZamComp with knee slew control.

ZamEQ2:

Two band parametric equaliser with high and low shelving circuits.

ZamGEQ31:

31 band graphic equaliser, good for eq of live spaces, removing unwanted noise from a track etc.

ZamHeadX2:

HRTF acoustic filtering plugin for directional sound.

ZamPhono:

A collection of phono filters for restoring vinyl records, or preparing to cut new ones.

ZamGate:

Gate plugin for ducking low gain sounds.

ZamGateX2:

Gate plugin for ducking low gain sounds, stereo version.

ZamTube:

Wicked distortion effect. Wave digital filter physical model of a triode tube amplifier stage, with modelled tone stacks from real guitar amplifiers (thanks D. Yeh et al).

ZamDelay:

A simple feedback delay unit with sync-to-host BPM feature and filter.

ZamDynamicEQ:

A dynamic equalizer that changes its gain based on detecting a narrow band of frequencies. Can be tuned to alter other frequency ranges on-the-fly.

ZaMultiComp:

Mono multiband compressor, with 3 adjustable bands.

ZaMultiCompX2:

Flagship of zam-plugins:
Stereo version of ZaMultiComp, with individual threshold controls for each band and real-time visualisation of comp curves.

Ever since I got the ZaMultiCompX2 plugin, I have never used (other) compressor. It has independent gain control attack and release with knee makes it versatile and superior. You can make it a dinosaurs and eat up annoying frequency and use it as a way of EQ.

OverHeat emulates the warm, harmonically-rich sound of analog saturation.

It is designed to add depth, warmth, and character to digital audio recordings by replicating the natural distortion and compression that occurs when analog signals are pushed to their limits.

With its intuitive interface, OverHeat is easy to use and offers a range of customizable parameters, such as input and output gain, saturation level, and tone shaping controls. You can use it to add subtle coloration to individual tracks or to create full-bodied analog warmth across an entire mix.

This analog saturation is suitable for a wide range of music genres and can be used on vocals, drums, guitars, bass, and synths, among others. Whether you’re looking to add vintage vibe to your recordings or want to achieve a more cohesive and polished sound, this plugin is a must-have tool for any music producer or engineer.

In addition to its audio processing capabilities, OverHeat is also optimized for low CPU usage, allowing it to be used on multiple tracks and even on a master bus without causing any performance issues. Its lightweight design makes it suitable for use on any digital audio workstation, including Logic Pro, Reaper, Ableton Live, and Cubase, among others.

Whether you’re working on a new song, a film score, a podcast, or a commercial, this plugin can help you take your audio to the next level and give your recordings the warmth, richness, and depth they deserve.

OverHeat is modeled to emulate tube saturation principles wich usually ads offset before non-linear processing. It creates a more realistic and natural-sounding saturation effect. By modeling the harmonic content of the signal before it undergoes non-linear processing, the plugin is able to add harmonics in a more musical and pleasing way, enhancing the overall character and tonal quality of the sound. This results in a more expressive and dynamic sound that can add warmth, depth, and interest to digital recordings.

• Modeled Analog Saturation effect.
• Low CPU usage.
• Automatable parameters for DAWs.
• Scalable HD interface.
• Pre Gain, Drive, Post Gain.
• Color and Low Pass Filter.

Fet Bundle
– FETish –

Classic FET Compressor/Limiter with extra features!

Features

– INPUT: Extended 0 to 60dB input gain. Internally compensated input knob to drive circuit and get compression. With original gear, input will boost signal without compensation. With FETish, you don’t have to reduce volume while you boost input.

– OUTPUT: -30 to +30dB Make-Up Gain to compensate compressed signal

– ATACK: 20 to 800 microseconds with reversed knob to adjust without confusion.

– RELEASE: 50ms to 1.1sec with reversed knob to adjust without confusion.

– RATIO: Selectable 4:1, 8:1, 12:1 and 20:1. Each has it’s own curve and range to start compress. While you use lowest ratio, you should get compression quickly when you boost input. With higher ratios, compression will start at higher input gains.

– HPF: 20 to 500Hz HPF to keep low frequencies from sidechain circuit. So, compressor won’t touch to low-end.

– MID F.(Frequency 500Hz to 10kHz) / MID G.(Gain -6dB to +6dB): With these two knobs, you can set mid frequency and set it to compress more or less. If you boost mid gain (broad band), you will get more compression on selected frequency. If you reduce mid gain, mids will be less compressed.

– HF: HF knob will help you to compress high more. While FLAT position keeps highs natural, HF position will compress highs more.

– MIX: Will let you blend compressed and dry signal.

– SLAM: With this function, you will get ultra-fast and aggressive limiting option. You can use this function for every ratio.

– EXT: This will let you use external signal to compressed input signal.

– IN: Plugin Bypass

– ANALOG OBSESSION: This label is clickable. It will turn to red and engage Oversampling

– Resizable interface. Simple “Bottom Right Corner Handle” to resize. 50% to 200%

– FetDrive –

Classic FET Compressor’s Saturation

Features

– DRIVE: It will rise your input level (with gain compensation) and will saturate your signal. Input range is really extended to get more drive!

– TONE: Tone will shape your source before drive section. So, it’s Pre-Tone Control. This will let you decide which frequency range will be saturated.

– MIX: Will blend dry and wet signal.

– OUTPUT: Final output stage after MIX knob.

– PLUGIN LABEL: It’s regular bypass. It will turn to white when plugin is bypassed.

– ANALOG OBSESSION: This label is clickable. It will turn to red and engage Oversampling

– Resizable interface. Simple “Bottom Right Corner Handle” to resize. 50% to 200%

– FetSnap –

Classic FET Compressor’s Transient Enhancer

Features

– SNAP: It will enhance attack time and reduce release of signal.

– TONE: Tone will shape your source before drive section. So, it’s Pre-Tone Control. This will let you decide which frequency range will be saturated.

– MIX: Will blend dry and wet signal.

– OUTPUT: Final output stage after MIX knob.

– PLUGIN LABEL: It’s regular bypass. It will turn to white when plugin is bypassed.

– ANALOG OBSESSION: This label is clickable. It will turn to red and engage Oversampling

– Resizable interface. Simple “Bottom Right Corner Handle” to resize. 50% to 200%

*Resizing Tip: When you duplicate plug-in, it will remember current state of GUI size. But if you load new instance, it will be opened at default size. To get rid of this issue, simply follow these steps;

1. Open plug-in for the first time

2. Resize GUI according to your screen resolution or you liking before setting any knobs

3. Save this state as default preset with your DAW

Now, you will be able to load new instances with same size.

(If you want to go default size, simply double click to resize handle.)

TesslaSE mkII is a transformer saturation simulator.

It is not a distortion box but rather focuses on bringing all those subtle saturation and widening (side-) effects from the analog right into the digital domain.

It sligthly colors the sound, polishes transients and creates depth and dimension in the stereo field. All the analog goodness in subtle doses.

It’s a mixing effect intended to be used here and there where the mix demands it. It offers a low CPU profile and (almost) zero latency.
