VINAIXDS

Xtreme Dynamic Saturator
Multiband Distortion

Split any signal into four bands and drive each through its own distortion character, powered by our Spectral Saturation Core — from tube warmth to broken fold, crowned by LDX: a uniquely engineered distortion mode built in-house and found in no other plugin. A real-time analyzer shows every harmonic you add — parallel, oversampled, surgical.

Phase Purity
Transparent · Always

VINAIxds shapes harmonics, never phase. Drive it as hard as you want — your transients, stereo image and phase relationships come out exactly as they went in.

Ultra-Grade™
Bench-Verified · Always

We ship numbers — measured to the floor of the instrument itself.

01 — Crossover

Four bands.
Four independent worlds.

Linkwitz-Riley crossovers split the spectrum into LOW, LOW-MID, HIGH-MID and HIGH. Three movable handles run on the analyzer — 40 Hz–500 Hz, 180 Hz–3.2 kHz and 1 kHz–12 kHz — so you distort the low end into a wall while keeping highs glassy and clean.

  • Three adjustable crossover handles on the analyzer
  • Per-band Drive (0–10), Level (±18 dB) & Dynamic
  • Proc, Mute, Solo & Delta listen per band
02 — Character

Five ways to
break a sound.

Every band carries the same five distortion engines, each switchable between Analog and Digital character. Mix and match across the spectrum for textures a single distortion could never reach.

M01

TUBE

Warm, even-harmonic glow with gentle asymmetry. The classic, refined.

M02

TAPE

Soft saturation, tamed transients and a rounded top end. Glue.

M03

DIODE

Asymmetric clipper edge — odd-harmonic bite that cuts through a dense mix.

M04

FOLD

Wavefolding chaos — metallic, gated, gloriously broken. For when subtle is wrong.

M05

LDX

VINAI's own, uniquely engineered distortion — aggressive, transient-aware grit with attack and presence you'll find in no other plugin.

03 — Vision

See every harmonic
you add.

A 2048-point real-time analyzer overlays input and output so you can watch distortion bloom across the spectrum. Crossover handles live right on the graph — drive with your eyes as much as your ears.

  • Input vs. output spectral overlay
  • Per-band energy that reacts to your drive
  • Up to 32× oversampling kills aliasing before it starts
