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.
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.
We ship numbers — measured to the floor of the instrument itself.
0.08 ms latency · bit-exact bypass · anti-aliasing to −103 dBc @ 8× OS · zero self-noise · 48 kHz

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.
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.
Warm, even-harmonic glow with gentle asymmetry. The classic, refined.
Soft saturation, tamed transients and a rounded top end. Glue.
Asymmetric clipper edge — odd-harmonic bite that cuts through a dense mix.
Wavefolding chaos — metallic, gated, gloriously broken. For when subtle is wrong.
VINAI's own, uniquely engineered distortion — aggressive, transient-aware grit with attack and presence you'll find in no other plugin.
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.

Catch the peaks XDS pushes — four clip algorithms, true-peak protection, up to 32× oversampling.

When you want the whole treatment from a single control. Saturation, glue, safety.

Add weight under the distortion — an intelligent tonal enhancer plus odd-harmonic saturation.
