Slursh

Saturation with a transient-triggered, two-band Collapse stage.

Slursh runs two engines in series. Slush is a soft-clip saturator that rounds the waveform as Drive increases. Threshold, Floor, and Knee shape where the saturation takes hold, helping quieter detail remain cleaner while louder material is pushed harder.

Collapse follows the signal's low-frequency energy. When that energy crosses the threshold, the low and high bands duck independently around a sweepable crossover. Each band has its own depth, attack, and release, so the movement can stay weighted toward the lows, the highs, or both. Squarify can drive the collapsing low band toward a squared-off fundamental for a harder, more fundamental-heavy character.

The phase-aligned dry path supports clean parallel blending. Null outputs the difference between the processed and aligned dry signals so you can audition what Slursh adds on its own.
