The Kn² Distortion VST plugin is carefully modeled to loosely approximate a modern classic distortion pedal that was surely used by someone famous, probably.

It features a simple yet effective circuit that served as the basis for countless other guitar effects of this class: a high-gain preamp stage followed by a symmetrical diode clipper, featuring diodes made from a very European-sounding semiconductor - clearly indicating both the high quality of the effect and the low availability of its components.

As one might expect, the model has two controls: Output and Distortion. This humble yet powerful control scheme allows for a surprising degree of flexibility.
With a turn of a knob, it can go from mildly distorted to completely unrecognizable.
Oh, and you can also control the output level.
