Overview

A plug-in that recreates legendary analog distortion for your DAW.

The Metric Halo MH Character v4 is a powerful distortion plug-in that lets you add rich, creamy analog distortion to your digital tracks. Designed by asking top engineers for their favorite pieces of analog gear, MH Character v4 emulates the euphonic distortion of 24 classic preamps, DIs and EQs. With a simple interface and intuitive controls, you can easily dial in the perfect amount of pleasing tube warmth or aggressive solid-state grit to suit your needs.

A Plethora of Luscious Distortion Models

MH Character v4 gives you 24 different analog distortion models to choose from, all meticulously modeled using proprietary DSP technology. Whether you're looking to emulate the subtle tube distortion of a vintage mic pre or the aggressive crackle of a solid-state DI, MH Character v4 has you covered. With the drive knob, you can increase the distortion to extreme levels for experimental sound design. The autodrive feature automatically adjusts the drive to maintain a consistent distortion level as your signal changes.

Adjustable Oversampling for Maximum Tonal Control

To ensure the most accurate and high-quality analog emulation, MH Character v4 offers selectable oversampling modes. Higher oversampling rates allow for a smoother, more transparent distortion. Choose between 2x, 8x, 2x Lin and 8x Lin oversampling to fine tune the plug-in's resolution and best match the character of your source audio. Whether you want a rough, lo-fi quality or pristine high-definition tone, MH Character v4 puts the power of oversampling in your hands.

An Easy-To-Use Interface With Powerful Features

Despite its advanced DSP technology, MH Character v4 is extremely easy to use. With an uncluttered interface and intuitive controls, you can quickly choose a distortion model, set the drive amount and dial in the perfect tone. Additional features like preset management, undo/redo, A/B snapshots and resizability provide extra flexibility and workflow efficiency. Whether you're new to plug-ins or an experienced producer, you'll find MH Character v4's simple yet powerful design inspires your creativity.

Add Thick, Creamy Distortion to Any DAW

As an AU, AAX, VST2 and VST3 plug-in, MH Character v4 works with all major DAWs like Pro Tools, Logic, Cubase and Ableton Live. You can use it during tracking to add rich analog color to vocals, guitars and more. Drop it on instrument busses to give your synths and drum machines vintage grit and grunge. Or apply it during mixing to blend digital harshness and breathe new life into stale tracks. For warm, musical distortion that integrates seamlessly into any workflow, MH Character v4 delivers.
