Punk Boost is aa plugin that pretends to emulate the behaviour of a bass preamp pedal effect.
This is a simple vst3/au booster plugin made with JUCE that I built to introduce myself in the JUCE framework. The functionality is somewhat inspired by the Harmonic Booster by Darkglass, but I implemented my own processing without trying out the original pedal.

Features

Pre equalization controls:
- Bass: ±12dB at 80Hz.
- Mids: ±12dB at selected frequency.
- Highs: ±12dB at 5kHz.
Boost: ±12dB of gain that feed a parallel exciter processor.
- As of now, the exciter is simply a saturation processor made with compressors and waveshapers that are blended with the clean signal to generate some harmonics.
- I may change this behaviour if I find any kind of exciter processor that (IMO) sounds better.
Character, a post-boost equalizer controlled with a single knob inspired in the VPF control on Markbass amplifiers.
- At minimum, the eq curve is flat.
- At maximum, the eq curve boosts lows and highs and dips the mids (around 500Hz). It kinda acts like a cab IR.
