MIOSoftDistortion Type 3
• Synopsis: Type 3 Soft Distortion Generator
• Category: Distortion, Building Blocks
• Channels: 1
Description:
When the the absolute value of the input signal level reaches the specified
Threshold
(on a sample
by sample basis), Metric Halo Type 3 distortion is generated and sent to the output. This signal may
be added to the input to generate the same effect as the Type 3 soft clipper. The point of this signal
processing module is to allow you to further process the distortion signal before adding it back into
the original signal.
Parameters:
Threshold
[0, 4] samps
Threshold at which the saturation begins to be applied.
Master Bypass
{On, Off}
Disables the distortion generator and causes the output to be zero.

MIOSlew
• Synopsis: Output Slew Rate Limiter
• Category: Distortion, Building Blocks
• Channels: 1
Description:
MIOSlew limits the slew rate of the output to the maximum slew rate specified by the
Slew Rate
parameter. This block simulates the effect of slew rate limiting on the output of a signal driver. The
slew rate limitation has the effect of a slow-rolloff nonlinear filter, and is an interesting distortion effect.
Parameters:
Slew Rate
[0, 100] samps
Sets the maximum change in the output on a sample-by-sample basis.
Master Bypass
{On, Off}
Causes the maximum slew rate to be ∞ , and provides a hard-bypass to the signal processor.
