Hyper Boost vs Gritopia

Simple, but deadly. Hyper Boost combines a two-band tone control with a hard-hitting soft clipper. Use it early in the chain as a bold saturation effect or throw it on late for subtle, precision mix adjustments. A power-up for your sound. Tone Control - Retro-inspired treble and bass tilt filters. Gentle, not surgical - Adjustable center frequency - Three configurations: Pre (EQ before clipper), Post (EQ after clipper), Emphasis (saturate a frequency band while keeping flat response overall) - Output trim Clipper - Drive input up to +36 dB - Adjustable ceiling and edge for precise control over the clipping curve - Three clipping algorithms: - Juicy: reproduces an infamous stock clipper - Tight: adapted from a classic soft-knee limiter - Hardest: loud and brash hardware-style clipping - Real-time curve visualizer with max peak metering Core Features - Morph Settings for smooth transitions between two complete configurations - Auto Bypass saves CPU when input is silent - AB settings comparison - HQ mode with 4x oversampling and ADAA - One-click loudness matching - All parameters automatable with precise playback - Light and dark interface modes - Internal undo/redo - Auto gain - Use your AUv3 plug-in in a compatible host app or DAW - Standalone app includes support, manual links and in-app purchase options for license purchase Two-week trial included, one-time purchase for full unlock.

Gritopia is a character processor built for adding texture, weight, and attitude to any sound. Rather than simply clipping or saturating, Gritopia layers harmonic coloration, evolving instability, and controlled degradation to create rich, expressive character. From subtle warmth to heavily damaged digital grit, every control interacts to produce movement rather than static distortion. The result is an effect that feels alive, constantly shifting as it reshapes your sound. Perfect for drums, bass, synths, guitars, vocals, and creative sound design. Features • Layered saturation and harmonic coloration • Digital erosion and evolving texture • Dynamic instability and motion • Designed for both subtle enhancement and aggressive destruction Controls Grit – Controls the overall amount of texture and saturation. Tone – Shapes the tonal balance of the processed signal. Fuzz – Adds thick harmonic fuzz and aggressive character. Erode – Introduces digital wear, degradation, and broken texture. Drift – Creates slow, evolving movement. Jitter – Adds fast instability and unpredictable variation. Glue – Blends the processed layers into a cohesive sound. Mix – Balances processed and dry signals.
