The Plasma intelligent tube saturator from iZotope gives your tracks the precise saturation they need for a polished, professional sound. With groundbreaking Flux Saturation technology, Plasma dynamically enhances your audio by applying tube saturation only where and when it's needed. Unlike static saturators, Plasma's processing ensures your mix or master always sounds balanced. Whether you want to subtly warm up your tracks or radically transform your sound, Plasma's intuitive interface and easy-to-use controls provide the perfect amount of saturation.

Flux Saturation: Apply Saturation Precisely

Plasma gives your tracks exactly the right amount of saturation—no more, no less. It identifies specific frequency areas needing a boost and applies tube saturation only to those frequencies when needed for a dynamic, polished result. Plasma's processing ensures your mix sounds professionally balanced at all times.

Target Profiles: Choose Your Processing

Powered by iZotope's award-winning technology, Plasma applies Flux Saturation according to one of 24 target profiles you set. Select the profile closest to your audio to guide how Plasma processes your track. Whether you want subtle warmth or an aggressively overdriven crunch, there's a target profile for you.

Tweak Your Saturation: Crisp to Crunchy

Fine-tune Plasma's adaptive saturation with easy attack and release settings. Gradually warm up your sound or saturate intensely right from the start. Crank up the overdrive for extra crispness and crunch. Plasma puts the power to shape your saturation in your hands.

Focus Your Processing: Transients, Sustain and More

Use Plasma precisely where you need it. Channel modes and frequency handles allow you to focus processing on specific frequencies, the mid or side channels and transient or sustain portions of your signal. Whether you want to saturate the kick drum's low end, the sizzle of cymbals or the sustain of pads, Plasma delivers.
