I am a mastering engineer and musician, This plugin became my go to distortion. I use to use SDRR which I still enjoy a lot, with gorgeous interface. This one look like crap but ... wait ! It sounds so huge, one knob magic ! This plug is probably underrated, and it's the best tube simulator I know, very good for mastering, to swell up and fatten sounds up. Can be very subtle (my favorite application) or very saturated. The EQ is a bit limited and I'd love to have vu meters but this plugin is now in my top ten, I highly recommend it. Love to use underrated old plugs. Also try TLS pocket limiter, very similar, its a limiter, though, but it really fattens things up also. That limiter and Limiter No6 are the best, for me.

I am in love with this, hugs to the creator! The UI is flawless, very handy and well-thought out, the sound is satisfying a.f. and I see this piece becoming a go-to for me in all kinds of applications where I think "gain". It stays remarkably true to the source and transparent imo, even with loads of overdrive.

You search for a good and efficient HiFi Tube Amplifier emulation? You've got it. TubeDriver internal structure is truly efficient, woww! Try the last updated version (v1.3): Same as v1.22 with two more parameters : THD(total harmonics distorsion) vu metering and Mix/Wet function.

I use this plugin as a pre-amp when I record vocals and acoustic instruments. I like how it shapes the sound for me. It's one of my three go-to plugin when recording along with Eventide's UltraChanel and Nick Crow's Wagner Sharp.
