Thanks a lot I'm glad you like it
Well a soft-clipper will introduce clipping to the signal, but instead of clipping the waveform hard so it looks like it was cut with scissors at the clip ceiling it softens the clipping, like rounding off the hard edges with the scissors, so the clipping doesnt kick in hard at the clip ceiling but it sounds... well rounder, more pleasing. Afaik distortion pedals for electric guitar use hard clipping while overdrive pedals use soft clipping. It can be used for some heavy fuzzy goodness as well as a tool to shave off transients without making them inaudible like a limiter would do. If youre interested in a free amazing soft clipper plugin check out Venn Audio's FreeClip I use it all the time https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BqUK3G47bcM Cheers
