Monster Crab Clipper is designed to enhance your mastering process by providing transparent loudness through peak clipping. It offers an effective way to increase the perceived volume of your track before applying the final limiter, helping you achieve a polished and professional sound. This soft clipping tool is ideal for mastering engineers looking to maintain clarity while boosting loudness.

Beyond dynamic control, Monster Crab Clipper introduces subtle harmonic distortion that enriches your audio with added warmth, personality, and depth. This harmonic enhancement helps your track stand out by injecting character that goes beyond simple volume adjustments. Whether you want to add a touch of color or shape your sound creatively, this clipper offers a musical approach to mastering.

The interface features two main controls: Gain adjusts the input volume feeding the clipper, and Output manages the volume after clipping. Additional controls include Slope, which lets you dial in how soft or hard the clipping effect is, and Oversample, which reduces aliasing for a cleaner sound. When Oversample is active, adjusting the output volume may be necessary to balance the increased loudness and sonic detail.
