Drawmer presents the 1976 stereo three-band Saturation and Width processor, which gives your mixes a special analog touch. Based on the classic equipment of the 70s, the device colors in a pleasant way, which is very difficult to realize with digital emulations. Your music will sound fuller and more musical, while of course you will always have full control over the three bands and can intervene whenever you need to. Whether bass lines, percussion, synths, vocals or the overall mix: every signal benefits from the warmth of 1976, while a change in stereo width is the icing on the cake. Get the most out of your recordings with the help of the three tapes and get that certain something out of known productions. Of course, mono and bypass buttons are also included, allowing for direct A/B comparison, while the rugged 1U chassis provides space in the rack and for other Outboard equipment.

I wanted to get a saturation unit to be used sparingly, but I've found using it almost everywhere - a little use (1-2 levels out of 10 it allows) in most conditions, but this really beefs up the mix using it a little on all inputs. Easily beats any saturation plugin available, the only secret is not to overdo it since it does not have the mix-knob like most Drawmer units have.
