The Kalifornia Dynamic Alkane saturation plugin is a truly exceptional plugin. This is the first plugin release by the company and what a way to start. I have used hundreds of different saturation plugins over the years whilst on the search for something that sounds remotely anything like what I have in the analogue domain. Finally I think I may have found that true gem I have been looking for. Alkane has replaced all other plugins I once called my go to saturation plugins when working in the box.

Modeling analog hardware, like a tape machine, is just one aspect to creating digital versions of hardware. Modeling how a tape machine not only sounds, but how it behaves, is much harder. Our proprietary analog modeling system provides a more complete baseline for capturing the true sound and essence of analog devices, and we don’t stop there.
