Mars Distortion
Powerful distortion with 13 different modes.
Mars is mostly a result of experimenting and trying to come up with new DSP algorithms.
The plug-in has been tested at 44100 and 96000 Hz samplerate, but should work at other rates as well.
Controls
Input gain
This knob adjusts the signal before it goes into the plugin.
Mode
Changes which algorithm is used for distortion.
Amount
Depending on the selected Mode, amount changes how powerful the effect is.
For most modes it works same as, or similar to, the input gain.
It's not a mix, so at 0% you will get silence.
If i ever rewrite Mars entirely, this will be a "Mix" knob instead.
However, changing it now would break everyone's presets.
Low cut
A gentle 6 dB/oct highpass filter that comes before the distortion algorithm.
High cut
For most modes, this is a gentle 6 dB/oct lowpass filter that comes after the distortion algorithm.
For other modes it works more as a kind of de-esser.
Oversampling
This increases the time resolution of the effect in order to reduce aliasing.
Settings above 4x will use a lot of CPU.
When using the "Cannon" mode (which currently does not support more than 4x oversampling),
this knob controls the amount of bass.
