Few knobs, good reaction, so I tend to dail my own setting before trying presets - like an old analog guitarpedal :-) . Sound is good, at lot of...well.. Karacter

So this thing is a pretty awesome tool to add "Karacter" to your busses or tracks. My friend has the Hardware unit and the plugin emulation is pretty darn close. Love how it can make instruments argressiley poke out of the mix or be tamed into a mellow back leaning sound. The MS matrix makes it versatile just like the hardware. I would like to add that I use tones of saturation and own Blackbox,VSM,Vitalizer as well as Manny other plugs and hardware pieces and this is definitely a welcomed addition.

karacter fits perfect to my drum and bass tracks, either in parallel or on subgroups, adding a truly analogue sound. Perfect!

I have been using this plugin for adding grit, liveliness to drums, especially on snare, kick and toms. It's very comfortable to dial in a fitting tone with the color knob, I can deal with fine details later. I also have good experiences applying some distortion on already crunched guitars to change overall tone but unlike eq, i can add some sparkle or growling at the same time. What I like most about it: it's really fast to get what you have in mind, if this kind of distortion doesn't work on the program you will know it in 10 second, but if it does, you'll get the sound almost instantly. Parallel processing is nice. I tried to use it for processing a whole mix, but I didn't get any magic results. The mastering layout is clever and fine, only I don't have the experience to hear/use it properly. Nice work brainworx! Thank you!

Realy nice saturation plugin. I own many saturation tools but this has its own unique sound. Elysia is a name of quality and Karacter keeps that quality reputation going strong...
Stunning, really

The name speaks for itself. You could use this as an EQ or a full-on distortion. And a great one at that. A simple drum loop can go from clean and snappy to complete destruction. What really made my day was the M/S mode. Keep the mids clean, saturate the sides? No problem. Vice versa? Got it. Try it, you will not be disappointed.

in the hardware area, elysia has its own language. plugin alliance always manages to emulate the emulations very close to the original gear. for me it's always a pleasure to work with it ... thank you plugin alliance :-)
