Can Anyone Help Me With A Pointer To PC's Tube Info?

Hi Gang...

I remember seeing (in text, not a video, please) someone posting the specifics that define the two different tube modes. I don't remember where I saw it but I wanted to see it again as I've forgotten the details... I really should have copied them and saved it...

Next time?

Many thanks, but please no videos... only text.

    Thanks pwal...

    Yes, I'm referring to the two different modes/settings that are available for the tube saturation portion of ProChannel...

    I seem to remember reading somewhere the different harmonic structures these each virtualize. But I did read it somewhere and simply can't remember that either! ;-)

    Ahhh... I found it... A Mix Magazine Review

    the pertinent info I wanted was:

    "There’s also a Tube Saturation module that includes input, drive, output, and Type-1 or -2 saturation modes. Type-1 models pure tube saturation and Type-2 emulates a dual-tube setup with controlled high-frequency processing to avoid sibilant harshness. On a snare track with the PC76, Type-2 saturation gave the snare a character reminiscent of a Distressor, enhancing second and third-order harmonics. This also proved valuable on a bass guitar DI track that was a bit too sterile in the mix. Depending on the Drive control, the results can be a subtle harmonic distortion to all-out clipping. "

    If you would like to read the whole article, the link is:

    Much better...
