Soundtoys Decapitator 5 – Analog Saturation and Distortion Plug-in

Soundtoys Decapitator 5 is the go-to analog saturation and distortion plug-in for producers, engineers, and sound designers who want warmth, edge, and grit in their tracks. Modeled after five classic pieces of analog hardware—including Neve, Ampex, Thermionic Culture, and EMI-style units—Decapitator gives you the power to dial in everything from subtle harmonic enhancement to aggressive, full-on distortion.

Now updated for Soundtoys 5.5, Decapitator 5 features native Apple Silicon support and a resizable user interface, making it fully optimized for modern production environments. Whether you’re heating up drums, adding bite to vocals, or thickening synths and guitars, Decapitator delivers bold, musical saturation that reacts like real hardware.
