There are now "endless modulation options", with all the 16-step XLFOs, XY controllers/sliders, envelope generators, envelope followers, and MIDI sources you will ever crave.
You can process up to six bands with per-band drive, mix, feedback, dynamics, tone and level controls. Talking of crossovers, these now come with variable slope options of 6, 12, 24 and 48 dB/oct. The new Linear Phase setting in combination with Subtle saturation adds warmth and 'excitement' to your final mixes in a way that FabFilter claims makes Saturn 2 "the mastering engineer's secret weapon". They've doubled the number of distortion types to 28 with Subtle, Transformer, and four British and American Amp models. So, after many years, FabFilter have decided to rebuild their multiband distortion and saturation plug-in from the ground up in a major redesign that brings it in line with the clean and simple GUI of their more popular plug-ins whilst peppering Saturn 2 with a host of new, enticing features. If you can't think of a way around it, and have the budget for it, grab it because their plugins are fantastic, but very pricey.FabFilter's Pro-Q3 is possibly the go-to EQ plug-in for many project and name studio engineers, but some might say the company's original Saturn saturation/distortion plug-in has generally been overlooked by all but those in the know. Everything else from there out is pretty much covered with your stock plugins (at least for ableton), but if you find one of your stock plugins doesn't do something that you need it to and a fabfilter plugin does, think about how much it would cost to upgrade and if there's any way to get around needing that particular feature.What triggered it for me was needing a good dynamic eq that isn't as heavy on processing as Ozone's.
then when you find that your stock eq can't do all the things you want it to, get pro-q.spend $50 on the creative bundle from ozone just for trash if nothing else (because not many plugins do the same things, and nothing else has the "add muscle" preset that I throw on just about everything).get ozone essentials when they give it away for free (which is often) so you can use the Maximizer from it.You should get both, but only if you need them.
