Emulating the legendary sound of one of the most iconic British consoles, Satson allows you to take advantage of a console-based workflow that includes analog metering, gain staging, saturation, and stereo crosstalk. Combining Satson Channel and Buss you will get your tracks to sound bigger than life.

Description

  • Saturation can be disabled when you want to use Satson for trim and metering purposes exclusively.
  • Two saturation modes: Normal (subtle distortion, high dynamic range) and Fat (hotter signal, lower dynamic range).
  • Satson can be used subtly or aggressively (to distort synths, and virtual or real instruments, for example).
  • Filters (both low and high pass) are tuned to sound sweet and pleasant to the ear.
  • Activate Satson Buss’ “LOUD” switch to add more “air” to your highs and “punch” to your lows.
  • Instances can be “grouped” creating the possibility of affecting all instances by making changes to just one.
  • With zero latency, no group delay, and careful optimization for low CPU consumption, Satson allows for a remarkably high number of multiple instances per session.
  • Internal 64-bit floating-point double precision.

Grouping

  • Imagine being able to control all Satson instances from a single instance. Imagine the freedom to assign Satson instances into “groups” for simultaneous control of all grouped instances.
  • Now, with Satson it’s possible to do just that: Turn on/off saturation, choose Fat or Normal mode, make volume adjustments for a group of instruments, and alter the drive for a group of instances, all from the convenience of one Master Instance.

Testimonials

“Verdict: For more advanced engineers looking to push their mixes up another notch, Satson is an attractive option.”

 

Computer Music Magazine Review

“Love the grouping feature. I can instantly change the character of a group of tracks or the entire mix even. The filters react as good as the ones in the analogue world. Great for shaping the sound of my entire mix very quickly.”

Dan Zlotnik , Music Composer

“I love the sound and the features. I used Satson in my mix and production for John Legend’s “A Place Called World.”

Antonio EscobarAntonio Escobar, Music Producer

“I use Satson on pretty much every stem mastering project that passes through our mastering studio. I like adding it to groups before running the stereo output through our analogue mastering chain.”

    Really wonderful plugin for gain-staging and subtle saturation! It will be perfect if the channel plugin could follow track name in future updates.

  2. Steve etzel (verified owner)

    Really great analog preamp that is easy to use and beautiful sounding!

  3. Joshua (verified owner)

    Satson is definitely my favourite SSL console emulation in comparison to Waves & Slate Digital’s emulations of similar consoles.
    I must say there is a bit of a high end EQ boost on the Satson Buss component which I feel is a bit excessive but maybe thats the sound of the console and there is something Im missing. I rolled a little bit of the high end off on the master with the StonEQ4k LPFilter and its PERFECT. I also started utilizing the Satson CS console insert instead of the Satson Channel component and Im loving that.
    Im excited to see if Sonimus deliver an S-Console upgrade as the new N-Console (previously Britson) is epic and for now has replaced my use of Satson. All in all I still love the sound and what Sonimus is doing.

    Great sounding plugin. I’ve been using it for years. I would like to see the company give some GUI update love to this product. Bring it up to the GUI level now seen in the new A console product. As it currently is there is a lot of guess work on what gain level you have it set to.

  7. Drew G. (verified owner)

    Just purchased the Britson and Satson after deciding to simplify my workflow and focus on having a more “analog” look and feel while being 100% in-the-box. I’ve become a huge fan of the Burnley 73 and felt this would be the ticket. I’m just really blown away so far at utilizing both of these products in my chain. I was in the middle of mixing a project and started over with it once I grabbed these! As many have already pointed out, It just sounds much more glued together and feels “legit”! If you are on the fence I really don’t think you will be disappointed.

    Nothing compares to this amazing company. In every way possible. The Sonimus experience is beyond pleasurable.

    AU plugin doesn’t validate, and plugin aliases badly

    • BorisM (store manager)

      New versions are coming with oversampling for the aliasing. Btw Our first products were modeled in order to make the aliasing imperceptible to human ears ;)

    The Satson channel and Buss are a special little pair. Follow the instructions and you will have a nice surprise waiting for you. Everything within the mix rises a little because it’s pulled together and warmed up a touch.
    Or, drive them if you want to add a bit more loudness and color….
    They are so simple to use because all the magic happens “under the hood”.
    Just follow those guidelines and dial them in!

    Great work once again Sonimus!
    I’m learning more about audio with the help of your plug-ins. Cheers!

    Haven’t used Satson yet, but if assume the experience will be very similar to Britson.

    I started using Britson and loved it, and now decided to try Satson and I am loving it as well. Great plugins at excellent prices. Sonimus plugins are slowly making me forget other brands.

  23. danny m. (verified owner)

    IMHO the best console emulation, but It screams for an upsampling option now in 2021

  24. Robert J. (verified owner)

    Easy go to get an analog vibe on each channels & subgroup and without a big CPU load

  29. Oleksandr Druker (verified owner)

    Satson is a cool sounding console emulation with a subtle yet very musical coloring and soft saturation when the gain knob is turned up. It has very good hp and lp filters as well. Love this plug-in!

    Satson has a very interesting color; it’s not as versatile as Britson but definitely a powerful tool for when you need to bring that “analogue sound” into a mix lacking of harmonic content. Great Job!

  37. Bert van der Naald (verified owner)

    Easy to install and use. Works as promised.

  38. Carlos Lopez Lira (verified owner)

  39. Lucas Jose Serena (verified owner)

    Simple yet powerfull tool. As with the Britson one, the best part of this plugin is the workflow that you end up using to get the most of them.

  40. Kyle (verified owner)

    I like this plugin. I don’t think it has a dramatic effect on the actual tone of the sound (that I can hear on my current monitoring system) but it makes everything sound more ‘glued together’ and less like various tracks stacked on top of one another in the DAW. Like, it makes everything just sound more like ‘music’. This is actually exactly what I was looking for. I’m combining it with the UAD tape plugin and I feel like those two plugins across every track are doing a huge part of what I want in my small productions without having to use a lot of plugins in post. Keep it simple, stupid!

  41. Jean-Pierre (verified owner)

    I was using Satson CM since many years, and buyed Britson ans now Satson. It’s awesome, very simple. I use both for gain staging (with the help of Hornet VU Meter), HPF and LPF when needed, and the subtle colour of sound, this extra touch so good.

  42. Dusan Z. (verified owner)

    Satson has brought fresh air to my mixing session. It made gain staging easy-peasy while gluing everything profoundly well. I think it will live a long time on my channels.

  43. Bill F. (verified owner)

    The Satson is a fantastically simple, hugely helpful tool, perfect for gain staging

  48. João Guerra (verified owner)

    I already had the Britson plugin featuring on every channel of my template. Acquiring the Satson was just a matter of time. Although i haven’t yet all its features, the overall quality of the resulting sound seems to share the quality of other Sonimus plugins.
    If there’s any criticism to the Satson, is the lack of numerical display when twisting the knobs.

  49. James L. (verified owner)

    Great Sounding plug-in. Easy to use. sounds great!! Easy install.Great company.

  50. jeremy-5646 (verified owner)

    Satson is a modern wonder. It’s been on every single project I’ve done for almost a decade now, and this plugin is worth the low, low price for the butter-smooth lo-/hipass filters alone. Oh, it’s also worth it for the accurate, responsive VU meters too! Now, keep in mind it was one of the first and best console emulators to market, and this thing has a practically zero CPU impact, and you are running out of reasons NOT to get Satson. Highly recommend.

  51. Brian S. (verified owner)

    As with the Britain, fantastic! For me not only does a plug-in have to do what it says and sound as good as it should, but it has to look incredible. Marks all of my check boxes.

  52. Luis Rojas (verified owner)

    I have tried other mix buss simulations, and this is the first one that really made my ears excited. It made such a beautiful change in my mixes. For the price…..you can’t pass it up!!!!

  53. Nicholas Gonzales (verified owner)

    Admittedly frustrated at first. The main issue being that I couldn’t distinguish if emailed replies were from an auto-mailer program or from an actual service rep. It seemed like there was a bit of lag in communication. I am, however new to Sonimus as a customer, so it may have very well been user error on my part. All that aside, customer support was of great assistance in helping me sort out the issue. The product works and sound excellent!

  54. Jonathan C. (verified owner)

    Brings a consistently pleasing substance in the mids that I find doesn’t come easily any other way.

    Great console emulation! Along with Britson, exactly what I was looking for going into tape emulation. The authorization process could be made more efficient. Please consider a manager.

  59. Erron Williams (verified owner)

    These plug ins sound amazing!

  60. Vince Valentini (verified owner)

    Sonimus make the whole experience straightforward and enjoyable. Their plug-ins are one of only 2 brands I use outside of hardware and the UAD platform – ie, Sonimus quality is so reasonably priced yet sounds as good as the short-list of the very best software processing. My most recent purchase of the Satson is no different – great functionality, sound, easy to use, easy to purchase and install, and most importantly No Smearing or Dulling of audio (which is audible to my ears in almost every brand of plug-ins I’ve used as a songwriter, producer and mastering engineer). Additionally the CPU hit is so low that you can populate your entire mix with the enriching tone these plugins offer. Best wishes Sonimus, hope you get the merit you deserve, and that you keep enjoying and developing your craft. I recommend these plugins to anyone looking for high quality at an affordable price range.

    The downloads cannot be unzipped on a Mac using the default program. You have to use RAR extractor or some other application. This is not apparent nor is it written in the installation instructions.

  67. Adey M. (verified owner)

    Very pleased with Satson, just like Britson the grouping feature is extremely useful, especially when used in conjunction with Satson CS…

    Sonimus products form the core of my workflow, they are reliable, effective, great value for money, and relentlessly analogue in nature…. Whats not to like ??

    Out of all the console emulations that i’ve tried, Satson is the best. Smooth filters on the channel. The Bus sounds clear and glues just like my old console. 5/5

  74. Josh Ladgrove (verified owner)

    Josh Ladgrove, Melbourne, Australia.

    console emulation that sits across every bus/channel that I use on virtually every project. Filters are butter and the fat button adds depth when used on many tracks.

    Reasonably priced, high quality products.

  75. Alvaro D. (verified owner)

    Satson es un excelente plugin para conseguir un sonido profesional. Personalmente lo uso conjuntamente con el Bx_Console G de Pluginalliance. Satson está en mis buses de mezcla calentando el material. Merece la pena.

  76. Drew Gold (verified owner)

    Drew Gold here. I used to work with Satson exclusively until Britson was released, which is a less subtle console emulation. Satson doesn’t really have a “sound” like Britson does, although it’s great using either to mix with on every channel.

  77. Sudad G (verified owner)

    I work for several years with Sonimus Satson.
    I insert it in every channel and busses of my DAW with great results. I combine it very often with Waves SSL Channels or Universal Audio Neve Channels. With Sonimus Satson I get the sound that I know from analog consoles. A very important plugin for me in every production.

  78. MazQ (verified owner)

    I’m MazQ and using Satson.
    I put some character to a track using gain knob. especially used track that has attack or punch.
    I love it as well as Sonnox inflator.
