Malcolm Toft PUNISHR 500-Series Harmonic Saturation Processor

Malcolm Toft PUNISHR 500-Series Harmonic Saturation Processor

The Malcolm Toft PUNISHR is an analogue harmonic saturation module for the 500 Series with four powerful tonal shaping processing.

The PUNISHR includes three different saturation paths that can be combined to create all kinds of sonic enhancements or aggressive destruction. A two-band EQ, based on Toft 1970's inspired circuits, deliver a powerful way to place the tone in a mix and can be placed pre or post-the three saturation paths.

Feel the crunch
With a choice of Symmetrical, Asymmetrical and Iron (Transformer) Saturation in any combination, the PUNISHR offers powerful ways to make the source stand out. Each mode includes a dedicated IN control to engage or bypass each section so you can hear what each circuit contributes to the final result.

All saturation elements include a dedicated level control knob.

Not Just Distortion 
Despite what its name suggests, the PUNISHR is designed not only for sonic mayhem but also to bring life, motion and excitement to otherwise dull sources, helping to add depth to sometimes over-compressed samples, or lifeless recordings.

The PUNISHR includes a two-band EQ inspired by Malcolm's 1970's EQ designs, providing simple powerful tone-shaping capabilities. Both shelf bands include a single frequency point (100Hz/8kHz) and can be placed pre- or post-distortion for added versatility and have been chosen to enhance the analogue distortion circuits in the unit.

Furthermore, it includes sweepable full-range high-pass and low-pass filters to help focus the distortion within a mix and an overall Wet/Dry mix control.

Clever Layout
The PUNISHR offers incredible features in a single-slot 500 Series module with useful and innovative features. First is its unique SUM function that allows all three distortions to be simultaneous. It also includes an automatic gain circuit ensuring the output signal remains constant even when a lot of distortion is being added!

This unit is incredibly powerful and works wonders on drums, vocals, guitars, bass, synthesizers, or an entire mix. It adds energy and bite to software instruments and samples or whilst tracking instruments or printing tracks.

The layout is similar to the flow of a console channel and takes no time at all to understand the signal flow, and how powerful and flexible the PUNISHR can be.
