JAX Squasher vs SGA Phoenix LT

The JAX Squasher is a self adjusting loudness maximizing limiter with super easy adjustment. Just increase the input gain or tweak the threshold parameter up to the desired level. Very short attack and release times can produce harmonic distortion but the effect is intended to be used for transparent limiting / loudness compression results.

SGA Phoenix LT, is a free, compact, version of our acclaimed SGA Phoenix. SGA Phoenix LT brings the authentic sound of an all-tube (12AU7) analog preamp to your AUv3 compatible host. Use SGA Phoenix LT to add warmth to a track, as a saturation compressor, or to add “dirt” with tube overdrive and distortion. Key Features: - Authentic analog sound through real-time high-performance circuit simulation. SGA Phoenix LT simulates the whole preamp circuit in real time using Shattered Glass Audio’s state-of-the-art circuit simulator. - Preamp featuring 12AU7 triodes delivers gentle overdrive and smooth distortion. For heavier saturation, simply stack instances—your CPU can handle it. - Three-band Baxandall style EQ that can be taken out of the signal path or placed either before or after the preamp. - Automatic Gain Control - Automatic 4x oversampling to control aliasing - Parallel processing. For a much wider variety of saturation flavors and additional EQs, upgrade to SGA Phoenix. SGA Phoenix LT is primarily an AUv3 effect. To use SGA Phoenix LT as a plug-in, you will need an AUv3 compatible host such as Garageband, AUM, etc. SGA Phoenix LT application is there to provide a user manual and a chance to use SGA Phoenix LT with the microphone input.
