Metric Halo Character

Virtual analog distorsion 

Character is a plug-in that lets you add the luscious distortion characteristics of classic analog circuits to your source tracks.

To create Character, Metric Halo asked top flight tracking, mixing and mastering engineers to send them their favorite analog hardware: the mic pres, DIs and EQs that they used for recording, mixing and mastering.

They then used SpectraFoo to measure the ways that these processors add lovely, gooey analog distortion to the sound run through them and modeled this distortion using our proprietary +DSP technology.

Character provides over 20 different models, incorporating the sound of tubes, transformers and solid state devices. Character has a Drive control (and autodrive) to allow you to push the distortion even harder for over-the-top sound mangling.
