At the beginning of the month Plugin Alliance released Ident, and today they have announced the release of Indent's big brother Dent which they describe as 'hardcore distortion plugin'. Plugin Alliance say that Dent shatters the mold in its product category by combining transformative wave-cycle distortion with a matchless modulation system designed to provide sound designers, mixers, remixers, DJs and Electronic Music producers with the ability to quickly and easily infuse their productions with sounds never before heard.

Distortion On Steriods

Rather than simply add harmonic distortion to tracks, Dent has been designed with a suite of powerful processors to distort the basic wave cycle, aggressively mutating tracks into something completely new and exciting. In addition to six different bitcrushers, four distinct clippers and a sampling-rate controller, Dent has two waveshapers, independently adjustable positive-and negative-phase DC offsets, half-cycle phase inversion, and probabilistic and sequential wavesets to warp a track's foundational sound and, optionally, create dynamic rhythmic patterns for the distorted output.

In Moderation

Of course, Dent can process tracks moderately to preserve their basic identity. For example, clean electric guitars can be severely overloaded and given a stereo wah wah effect, although still big changes, it is still recognisable as a guitar track.
