Analog-Style Clipping & Drive

Cactus delivers analog-style clipping that blends the punch of hardware limiters with the warmth of subtle saturation. Its variable knee and additional saturation circuit helps you shape everything from soft, rounded edges to hard, tape-like slam.

Linkable Input and Output Gain

Cactus's linked input and output controls automatically balance the level of your processed signal with your original audio, so you can focus on shaping your sound without worrying about gain staging.

Intuitive Metering

The visually intuitive metering system gives you real-time feedback on your signal's dynamic reduction. Don't mix with your eyes... but a sanity check has never looked this good.
