Four new British and American amp styles perfectly emulate the character of well-known guitar amps, while three Transformer styles – Subtle, Gentle and Warm – start to introduce abrasive new possibilities. This includes Subtle versions of Tape, Tube and Saturation styles, bringing warm tones to your sounds. Saturn 2 takes distortion types up a notch, moving from 16 options up to 28.

The source flow area gives a quick overview of all mod signals and indicates which parameters are being modulated at a glance. Checking in on modulation routing is a breeze, with comprehensive visualisation at source and target, with colour-coded tags on knobs and sliders, which react in realtime to modulation input. If you’re in need of a closer look at parameters, Saturn 2’s fullscreen mode should help out, along with four other interface size options. The most immediate change here is Saturn 2’s darker colour scheme, which may prove a little easier on the eyes for long production sessions. Also new is linear phase processing, enhanced envelopes and a Superb High-Quality mode. FabFilter has brought it up to scratch with Saturn 2, immediately available and sporting a sleek new design, almost double the number of distortion types and virtually limitless modulation possibilities. You can fiddle around and get real close, adjusting input, drive, etc-but it’s a bit awkward.Eight years ago, the first version of Saturn was released – an award-winning multiband distortion and saturation plug-in. Saturn 2 lacks the fine tuning you would need to tweak “everything” you can on your trusty head. The Amp style is never going to sound like a real guitar amp.

If you are interested in some hints or tricks, you can check out the manual for my Saturn 2 presets.
But I find the UI on Saturn both functional and remarkable, and it is still fun! Just always wanted to point this out, and now I have!
(My instincts say yes, because obviously they aren’t listening very carefully.) No one enjoys the fun of a cool-looking plugin more than me, mimicking both the sound and look of what it is emulating.
I wonder if it was wrapped in an analog-looking UI if it would “sound” different to those people. There are some people who seem to think Saturn has a “harsh” or “digital” sound. Foldback, for instance, looks pretty calm when the Drive is at 0%. Some of these, especially the ones FabFilter calls “FX”, are going to go real crazy real quick when you push up the Drive knob. I tested all of the distortion styles at the default setting.
