Blue Cat’s Destructor 2 is your go-to solution for versatile distortion and amp modeling, offering a vast range of distortion styles—from velvety analog compression and pristine clean tones to extreme digital destruction. With hundreds of ready-to-use presets inspired by iconic gear (guitar amps, bass amps, pedals, compressors, and tape machines) and endless customization options, Destructor 2 helps you forge your own signature sound for guitars, bass, drums, synths, vocals, and more.

The unique approach to distortion and amp modeling in Destructor is based on perceptual modeling, ensuring that the tones you create are seamless and naturally fit into any mix. The tool also includes adaptive shaping, which mimics analog-like responsiveness, and goes beyond the limitations of traditional gear by allowing you to explore completely new digital effects.

Key Features:

  • Versatile Distortion & Amp Modeling: Supports a wide range of distortion types, including analog saturation, digital distortion, clipping, compression, fuzz, and clean tones.
  • Hundreds of Editable Presets: Start with presets inspired by real-world gear, then tweak every parameter to create your custom sound, or use tone maps to explore new tones without diving deep into technical details.
  • Customizable User Interface: Craft your own virtual racks and pedals using over 600,000 visual styles, including knobs, faceplates, backgrounds, and handles.
  • Real-time Visual Feedback: Analyze your tone in real-time with dynamic distortion curve displays, spectrum analysis, and signal histograms for precise control.
  • Impulse Responses (IR) Integration: Load your own impulse responses to add cabinet or reverb characteristics, blending them with Destructor’s built-in simulations.
  • Shape Dynamics Control: Adapt your distortion to the dynamics of your input signal with the exclusive adaptive shaper for responsive, analog-like tone shaping.
  • Advanced Filtering: Use precise preamp and post filters, with peak and comb filters for enhanced sound sculpting control.
  • Built-in Brickwall Limiter: Protect your output with a brickwall limiter that prevents overshoot and maintains a clean signal.
  • Comprehensive MIDI & Automation Support: Full MIDI control with MIDI Learn for mapping external controllers to parameters, alongside automation support.
  • Side Chain Capabilities: Use external or internal side-chaining to trigger distortion effects, adding dynamic rhythmic elements to your tracks.
  • Tone Matching: Import reference curves from Blue Cat’s FreqAnalyst Multi for precise tone matching with existing gear.
Whether you’re aiming for realistic amp simulations or exploring uncharted sonic territories, Blue Cat’s Destructor 2 delivers unmatched versatility and power in distortion modeling and tone shaping.
