10x Grammy winner Manny Marroquin (Kendrick Lamar, Kanye West, Lizzo, Future) isn’t your ordinary mixing engineer, and this isn’t your ordinary distortion. Parallel processing layers distortion that growls and teases instead of crushes—thicken digital synths, add grit to bass amps, toughen up drums, and more.
As Manny Marroquin says, “Whether or not it’s audible, sometimes I just want to feel distortion.” Now, you can feel—and hear—distortion that imparts a distinctive character to any sound.
