A couple of years ago Arturia ventured simulations of vintage synths and into audio effects territory. The FX Collection wasn't as clear of a must have as the V Collection, but the company has slowly ...

Conventional techniques may not be sufficient, but a new approach to implementing nonlinear algorithms may accomplish the goal. Roy Batruni, CEO, Optichron Nonlinear signal distortion is widespread ...

From earlier work in this series, distortion from the small-signal stages may be kept to levels that will prove negligible compared with distortion from a closed-loop output stage. Similarly, future ...

It’s one thing to assemble your own circuits from scratch using off the shelf components. It’s quite another to build the components first, and then build the circuit. That’s the path [Joris Wegner] ...

Distortion is probably the most-used effect by rock guitarists, and as such the stompbox realm is full of powerful drive effects. There are pros and cons to using stompboxes in the studio. Being aimed ...

Here’s a simple tip for those of you who like to use Photo Booth’s distortion effects (those on the second page of the four pages of effects) on your photos. When you choose one of these effects, say ...

In our lifetimes, we encounter hundreds of thousands of faces. Each person's unique exposure to faces largely determines their "face space"—a model of how we encode, perceive, and remember the faces ...
