In this Video Review Pro Tools Expert Team Member Julian Rodgers takes a first look at the new Karacter saturation plug-in from Plugin Alliance.

Using elements of a mix Julian demonstrates the different characters of the saturation and FET Shred modes as well as the two complementary versions of the plug-in - Mix and Master.

Saturation And M/S Processing

Using the Master version of Karacter he shows how by unlinking the two sets of controls and working in M/S mode is is possible to apply different treatments to, for example, the kick drum using the mid channel and the cymbals using the sides channel.
