@@OliBeaudoin wherever I fee it’s needed tbh. Drum bus is the first place I’ll eat it to se if it helps bring transients forward and add energy (house music). I’ve used it on a kick which created some punch. The clipper is fantastic to help gain more volume in the mix and master too.
I have the option to upgrade my Fabfilter Saturn to v2 for a discounted price. If you had to pick between upgrading or just getting Kraftur, which would you do? Great video btw!
Thanks a lot man! That’s a tough question because Saturn 2 is a great plugin. It doesn’t do clipping like Kraftur does though. If you are looking simply for a Multiband Saturator, Saturn is more flexible because of all the different saturation algorithms and highly customizable parameters. If you’re looking to push a mix or busses to maximum loudness and punch 🥊, Kraftur is the way to go! I get both, that’s what I did. Hope that helps!
When you work with different DAWs in one production it's not handy to have no preset manager apart from the DAWs. A preset manager is available in any plugin nowadays and works in the plugin to be compatible with any DAW! I work with Cubase, Live and Wavelab!
Is it CPU intensive? Is the GUI sluggishness we're seeing due to recording your video? Is it really 0 latency or just that the latency is not reported to the host? I don't understand how they would do oversampling without adding at least 4 to 32 samples of latency...
GUI was due to the screencapture software doing freegames starting about halfway in 😂. The plugin works great, but is a little CPU intensive, just like most mastering plugins. On my system, it’s about 7% ressources. I am running a 2019 imac, fully maxed out, but Intel. I checked the latency compensation meter and it reads zero latency. I don’t know how they did it, but it’s effective! Let me know your findings about CPU usage on your system if you decide to try it out!
@@OliBeaudoin Thank you for your quick return and review of this new plugin which seems very interesting, useful and well designed. I'm definitely going to try it soon!
You explained it better than everyone else. I had to watch about 5 of the reviews - you nailed it.
Wow, really glad it helped you! 🙏😎
I have had the same issue. hahahaha yes THANKS!!
Best plug-in I’ve purchased this year. The difference in my mixes is night and day.
Great to hear man! Are you using it on busses or just the 2-bus?

Is what way as it helped???
I just bought it 16 hours ago and I can say that it is fantastically versatile and incredibly accurate! I am impressed with this plugin!🥰
Great to hear man! It is LOUD and transparent for sure! 🙏
Perfectly explained! Thank you!!
Glad it was helpful! cheers! 🙏😎

Thank you! 🤣 That GSP accent!

From what I see there is again no preset manager like in Gullfoss. Very annoying when you work with different DAWs in a workflow!
I don’t have a preset manager in either, using VST3 in Cubase 13, just the regular Cubase preset window
