Description

The distortion and amp sims factory that goes to 11, and beyond!
Blue Cat’s Destructor is a powerful distortion and amp sim modeling tool capable of replicating a vast spectrum of distortion styles, from the edgiest digital mayhem to velvety smooth compression, and even pristine guitar amp recreations (yes, it nails those pristine clean tones too!). The best part? It helps you discover and forge your own signature sound for guitars, bass, drums, synths, vocals, or even full mixes!
Experience Destructor, the ultimate tone-sculpting tool, loaded with hundreds of presets and ready-to-rock models. Inspired by iconic gear like guitar and bass amps, cabinets, compressors, pedals, and tape machines, or crafted by our destructive minds, these presets will serve as your sonic playground to build your own tone.

Overview

But here’s where the magic truly happens: Destructor’s customizability knows no bounds. Tweak every parameter of existing presets to create a limitless universe of distortion simulations – no need to purchase additional presets or amp models. And if you want to keep it simple, use tone maps to create new sounds without diving into the details.
Our approach, rooted in perceptual modeling rather than electronic designs or impulse responses, streamlines the tone-tweaking process, ensuring it seamlessly fits into your mix. You can also load and transform your own impulse responses to add color to your tone.
