Floodo’s Audio Labs Releases Cascade – Dual-Stage Volterra Saturation Plugin (VST3 Windows)

Floodo’s Audio Labs has released Cascade, an advanced audio processing plugin designed to inject rich analog character, non-linear harmonic depth, and dynamic warmth into modern digital productions.

Engineered with custom C++ DSP algorithms based on Volterra Series modeling, Cascade bridges the gap between dynamic hardware circuitry and pristine digital processing. It delivers authentic harmonic distortion that reacts fluidly to input transients, maintaining controlled, minimal aliasing even under extreme drive conditions.

Key Technical Features:

  • Volterra Series DSP Engine: Dynamic dual-stage saturation modeling that captures non-linear harmonic depth based on signal dynamics.
  • Low-Aliasing Under Extreme Drive: Internal processing engineered to suppress high-frequency foldback, keeping aliasing strictly controlled when pushed hard.
  • 150 Factory Presets by Velltone: A comprehensive preset suite designed by Velltone, spanning mix busses, vocals, drums, synths, and mastering setups.
  • Linear-Phase Parallel Processing: Seamlessly blend dry and saturated signals without phase cancellation artifacts.
  • Low CPU Overhead: Optimized DSP architecture suitable for heavy multi-track mixing sessions.

Pricing & Availability

Cascade is available now for Windows 10/11 (64-bit VST3). The macOS version is currently in the code-signing pipeline. There is an introductory price of $39.00 (Reg. $129) and a fully-functional trial version is available.
