Arturia – Dist COLDFIRE (Windows)

If you’re looking to impart an aggressive edge to your tracks, nothing beats an all-encompassing distortion plug-in like Arturia’s Dist Coldfire. This plug-in’s 11 distinct algorithms are designed for maximum versatility, ranging from a subtle tube-style saturation to all-out wall-of-sound sonic mayhem, and everything in between! Better still, Arturia has loaded Dist Coldfire up with an incredible amount of adjustability and customization, including a built-in modulation section. This section features six separate slots that can be set as either LFOs, functions, envelope followers, or even step sequencers, allowing you to craft any even the most complex and experimental tones with ease. But be warned: it’s easy to get carried away with the dirt if you’re not too careful, which is why Sweetwater’s producers love how Dist Coldfire’s extensive dynamics section allows you to turn down the heat when things start to get out of hand
