Described as a “mix engineer’s secret weapon”, the SSL Native X-Saturator is a saturation and distortion plugin designed to bring analogue-style warmth and harmonic richness to your tracks. The main Drive control determines how hard your signal hits the saturation stage. Crank it up, and you introduce more harmonic distortion, or keep it gentle for a warm, creamy tone.

Choose from second-order valve-style distortion, third-order transistor distortion, or blend the two for a perfect combination of tube warmth and transistor-like edge. Input and output gain knobs make level-matching simple, and an internal bypass button allows smooth A/B comparisons without clicks, pops, or latency. Extra touches like a +6 dB Boost switch, factory presets, full automation, and undo/redo buttons make it a practical, versatile tool for mixing and creative sound design.
The plugin runs on macOS 11 Big Sur to 13 Ventura (M1 compatible) and Windows 10–11, and supports AU, VST2, VST3, and AAX formats. A free iLok Account is also needed for the authorisation of this software.
